Rated 3.75/5 by Joonas Linkola. "The atmosphere is surrealistic to the extreme, and the puzzles are devilishly clever."
Win95/Mac versions rated 94% by Gareth Dickson. "The best puzzle game ever made." Tells very little about the game in order to allow you the pleasure of finding out about it while playing it.
Player ratings of "Riven: The Sequel to Myst" for the Sony PlayStation.
"It is bigger than Myst, in many ways it is better than Myst, but it isn't really innovative which Myst was in its time."
Short quotes from four Campus Life readers about the game.
"Why Riven -- despite its stunning visual achievements and its commercial appeal -- does not live up to the magic of Myst." By Ralph Lombreglia.
"Strong in every aspect."
