Uru: The Path of the Shell Hints

Does this file cover Uru: Ages Beyond Myst and Uru: To D'ni?

  • No, the hints for Uru: Ages Beyond Myst and To D'ni are in separate hint files.

    (The main Uru largely takes place in the ages available with the group of 5 linking books on the left of your bookshelf.  To D'ni takes places in the neighborhoods of the D'ni underground city, accessible through the middle set of books.  The content in The Path of the Shell uses the rightmost books.)
