The legacy of Cyan's puzzle-solving Myst series mightn't be obvious these days, but for those of us who were around when it was first released in 1993 -- and subsequently blown away by the graphics and animation -- it's certainly not forgotten. After some hard work securing the rights for its legacy titles, Myst developer Cyan Inc. has announced plans to update all its games for modern systems.

In what will probably be the first and last time I'm excited for anything involving Rabbids, the biggest release this week is comfortably the unusual cross-over between Mario and Ubisoft.

But the list of big hitters doesn't stop there: the first episode of Life is Strange: Before the Storm drops this week, ARK: Survival Evolved comes out of Early Access, and RedOut gets a well-deserved console release. It's a big week in games, people.

If you played Myst, chances are you'll remember the absolute agony that the Maze Runner puzzle. It was a nightmare involving a cart, four directions, and some weird sounds that initially didn't make a whole lot of sense.

At the time, it was one of the game's most heavily criticised puzzles. And yet Myst creator Rand Miller loved the hell out of it.

August was a busy month for video games! From much-anticipated big titles to smaller fan games, here were some of our favourite games from August.

I still don't really know what's going on in Obduction, the new game from the folks behind legendary adventure game Myst, but I'm extremely intrigued.

It's been a long, long time coming. But after a long Kickstarter campaign, troubles with publishers, delays and just about everything else, the makers of the Myst series have finally released the spiritual successor to the iconic first-person puzzle series.

Hayley took the limelight earlier this week and when he returns from self-inflicted baby duties, Mark will join in the fun. But in the interim, let's take a break from the open-world RPGs, the torturous punishment of Dark Souls and venture in the weird world of games in 2016 that I'm excited for.
