Myst III: Exile Hints

I'm floating above the center of the island. What do I do here?

  • 1 of 5: Look up to the ceiling of the ship you're in.
  • 2 of 5: There's a button on each side of this ship.
  • 3 of 5: Whenever you press a button, you'll create a crystal ball and send it down the tracks in the direction you're facing.
  • 4 of 5: You've never been out to the area in front of the red button -- why don't you try that one first?
  • 5 of 5: Hmm ... it seems that the track stops before the ball can get to the platform on the left.
