So perhaps merely turning off the arrow to raise the ship is involved. And there is a constellation pillar with an arrow symbol. Many permutations of this have been tried, and none have been discovered to succeed yet.īut also, the Myst clock tower has an ornament with an arrow and a moon.


(For instance, in Hearts, if you collect every single card that would normally penalize you, every other player is penalized a lot.) This could mean that all the pillar symbols start activated, and you deactivate the incorrect ones to raise the ship. In some card games, "Shooting The Moon" means to do the opposite of what you normally do, and thereby achieve the best result. Which might mean that "Shooting The Moon" is some process by which the correct constellation symbol pillars will be lit up. Whatever "Shooting The Moon" means, it sounds like it will result in a mast raising the obvious interpretation, since YourInMySightsNow takes place on Myst Island, is that it's somehow involved in raising the ship by the dock.

Many possibilities of their meaning have been theorized and tested, to no avail thus far.
REAL MYST DESCRIPTION HOW TO
These seem to be the direct instructions on how to activate the unknown egg. So this line of the new clue seems to indicate that activating YourInMySightsNow is a prerequisite to finding the unknown egg in question. (All non-locked-in Tower Rotation positions make the turret point directly away from the island there are no fine adjustments to be made.) After waiting about 30 seconds, the gun barrel will aim, point slightly upward, and recoil with a BANG sound (in actuality using the sound of the giant tree releasing boiler pressure), then lower to its original position. …and the second is known as "plus", resembling a crosshair:ĭoing these makes the turret from the Myst Mayhem April Fools' gag protrude from the library tower, pointing toward whichever landmark the Tower Rotation is currently set to. The first is referred to as "logo", resembling the Cyan dingbat: To activate the egg, you input two patterns into the fireplace. One of the original realMYST Easter Eggs was known in the game files as " YourInMySightsNow". It could also merely be there to say "Yes, you're really getting a new clue about a 12-year-old game." So the word "Vintage" could have been a clue to look to the old version, not the imminent one. However, the iPad version was announced on March 1st, 2012, and would come out two months later.
REAL MYST DESCRIPTION MAC
At the time this clue was given, there had been no new releases of realMYST since the Mac version came out in 2002, so "Vintage" realMYST was the only existing realMYST. This seems to tell the fans that the game being spoken of is the original realMYST. Over the next ten years, there would be occasional flurries of activity around this new clue, but nothing has yet been discovered.

And Get a Wild Blast Straight from the past Have any of you tried shooting the moon yet? However, on the evening of April 10, 2012, over a decade after the original Egg Hunt, Spyder again showed up in CC with a new clue, seemingly also about the original realMYST: These were documented faithfully by the late community member Mark “Zardoz” Plummer on his realMYST Easter Egg Hunt website.Ī couple of the clues documented there are loose ends that may or may not yield secrets yet unseen. In the early ’00s, Spyder, previously known for doling out clues to the Riven Easter Eggs and The Vault, began to post clues in Cyan Chat to easter eggs found in realMYST.
