Cyan did not have fans to please, and did not know exactly who the game would appeal to Robyn felt like they did not have to second-guess their choices and could 'explore the world as we were designing' and build a game for themselves. Thus, a good puzzle would feel familiar and part of the world- not like a puzzle, but something for players to figure out like a circuit breaker in their house, using observation and common sense. The Millers decided that most people did not like puzzles. To solve this issue, they compartmentalized parts of the game's environments into the different Ages. At the time, consoles had no hard drives and small memory buffers, meaning the game had to be designed around these technical constraints.

Sunsoft was not interested in the game for PC and was instead focused on the video game console market. They were just these worlds that you would explore.' Robyn recalled that the games were more about exploration than narrative: 'In the projects we did for children, we didn't really tell stories. The Manhole and the games that followed- Cosmic Osmo and Spelunx-were specifically aimed at children and shared the same aesthetics: black-and-white graphics, point-and-click gameplay, a first-person point of view, and explorable worlds.

In his parents' basement-Robyn did not own a computer himself-Robyn began drawing pictures and creating a nonlinear story that would eventually become their first game, The Manhole. The brothers were not big video game players themselves, although they were familiar with Dungeons & Dragons, and had played Zork. Rand approached his brother with the idea of making an interactive storybook using HyperCard. Rand was a computer programmer for a bank.

The books are missing several pages, rendering the sons' messages unclear and riddled with static. From the panels of their books, Sirrus and Achenar tell the player that Atrus is dead each brother blames the other for the death of their father, as well as the destruction of much of Atrus' library. Atrus writes special 'linking books' that transport people to the worlds, or 'Ages', that the books describe. These books are traps that hold Sirrus and Achenar, the sons of Atrus, who once lived on Myst island with his wife Catherine. Myst contains a library where two additional books can be found, colored red and blue. Placing his or her hand on the last page, the player is whisked away to the world described and is left with no choice but to explore the island. The player reads the book and discovers a detailed description of an island world called Myst. Players assume the role of an unnamed person who stumbles across an unusual book titled 'Myst'.
