Gehn has appointed himself as the one to rule the Age of Riven, and has driven his world to collapse.
Now he holds Catherine hostage on Riven, hoping that his son will restore the book link to the Age and free him from there.
The Stranger is requested by Atrus to travel to Riven and find a way to rescue Catherine.
Riven is a sequel to Myst , and is very similar to its predecessor in gameplay style, controls, and visual presentation.
The game world is presented as a series of computer-generated still screens; the player explores it in a point-and-click fashion.
Interaction with the environment is possible only when said environment is highlighted as a "hot spot", and is also performed by simple clicking.
Like its predecessor, Riven is heavy on puzzles, which rarely include using inventory items, but usually involve understanding and manipulating the complex environments and machinery of the game world.
About Sega Saturn
The Sega Saturn (1994/1995) struggled commercially against the PlayStation despite strong 2D capabilities and a library beloved by shoot-'em-up and RPG fans. Its relatively low sales translated directly into low print runs for many games, making the Saturn one of the more expensive retro platforms to collect completely — several titles now sell for hundreds of euros in good condition.
Gamevaro tracks Riven: The Sequel to Myst for Sega Saturn with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Riven: The Sequel to Myst to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This SAT release dates back to 1998.
