Myst DS Arriving in March

15
A Nintendo DS version of Cyan Worlds' influential adventure effort Myst will hit North America in March, publisher Empire Interactive has announced. Developed by Hoplite Research, the title was released in Europe last fall, where it was distributed by Midway.

The DS edition of the point-and-click classic features an original soundtrack, the Rime Age area that was included in realMYST (PC), and remastered video along with a virtual journal for players to scribble their notes in. The game's lush environments are displayed on the system's top screen, with tools, such as a map and camera, available on the bottom screen.

"[Myst on the Nintendo DS] allows players to take advantage of the new features created exclusively for the DS, while still maintaining the integrity of this classic game, creating a refreshed, on-the-go adventure experience for players of all ages," said Empire sales VP Karim Farghaly.

Chris Faylor was previously a games journalist creating content at Shacknews.

    Interesting, and a good match for the system. Not sure I would personally get it though just for one more Age.
