Myst V: End of Ages, like previous entries in the Myst series, has some head-scratchingly complex puzzles within its various settings. That said, though, the game's release has gone forward without a hitch, and no doubt there are plenty of people sitting at their computers and scratching their heads right about now. While the series still has a lot of fans, the games themselves no longer sell as well as they once did, and Cyan Worlds, the developer of most of the titles in the series, recently shut the doors of its game development unit, indicating that End of Ages will be the final installment in the Myst series. Like all good things, though, Myst had to come to an end at some point, and that point seems to be now, with the release of the appropriately titled Myst V: End of Ages. The series had already sold a few million copies with just two games, so sequels were inevitable, and indeed followups came quickly, with Myst III: Exile, Myst IV: Revelation, and Uru: Ages of Myst all being released within the last five years. A PC port followed two years later, and a full-fledged sequel, Riven, came out in 1997. The first game in the series was released all the way back in 1993 on the Mac, and featured stunningly-rendered graphics to go along with a lengthy, puzzle-based story.
