Myst III: Exile Hints

I don't like the ending I got. What should I do?

  • 1 of 5: There are two types of bad endings.  With one sort of bad ending, you'll get a message box saying that you've been killed or otherwise failed.  The other type of ending doesn't quite tell you that you failed, but it does show a less-than-happy final sequence.
  • 2 of 5: If you get the message box, then you did something wrong.  Make sure that you're solving the appropriate puzzles correctly.
  • 3 of 5: If you get the unhappy movie, then what you're seeing is the result of your own choices.
  • 4 of 5: You returned to Tomahna without freeing Saavedro.
  • 5 of 5: Free him, and you'll get a happier ending.
