Logbook Myst IV: Revelations
On this page, I keep a logbook of my explorations of
Myst IV:
Revelations It is an almost verbatim copy of the notes that I
made, so don't expect it to be grammatically correct or understandable. It is not
a walk through, but I guess it can be understood by someone that played the game.
For hints I looked at the UHS Myst IV hints page.
See also my Myst logbook.
Before I finished this game, I also started with Myst V: End of Ages.
21:45 Started.
21:51 Started calibration.
22:04 Took the elevator one level down.
22:05 Met Yeesha. Said something about her hanger.
22:08 I pushed some button and then a lever. The lights went out, and I cannot move
the lever anymore. Looked around the bedroom, went inside the "mantelpiece".
22:13 Quit.

Session 2: Afternoon of January 2, 2006
14:10 Started.
14:12 Opened small cabinet above the desk. A note explaining how to operate mechanism in fireplace.
14:15 Switched on the light on the desk. Switched on the light near the bed. Nothing happened.
14:16 Maybe there is no electricity.
14:18 I went outside. Continued. Another handle here. I moved it to the left and right but nothing happened.
14:21 Cannot go further here.
14:22 Tried the button and handle again. Still does not work.
14:26 Walked back and found a little room in between the two greenhouses. Yeesha was there and gave some information.
14:28 Looked at the electricity switching borad.
14:29 There is a locked door here. Many books here.
14:30 There is a book with drawings of butterflies and beetles.
14:31 Also found a symbol on the wall. Looks like it is related to the switching board.
14:33 Went downstairs in the first greenhouse. Yeesha is trying to play a song on a kind of flute.
14:34 There is a button here, but it doesn't do a thing.
14:35 Went upstairs.
14:36 And downstairs againa. Went to second greenhouse. You cannot go down there.
14:38 Took elevator down.
14:39 Elevator does not have enough power to go down all the way. I am upstairs again. I went downstairs again.
14:41 Found symbol on elevator.
14:45 Walked back to bedroom to see where the elevator leads to. Not much it seems. There is no platform there, but there
is a kind of track in the water.
14:47 It looks like the track leads to under the platform behind the bedroom.
14:48 The handle close to the water also has some symbols.
14:55 Found mangnifier in small room.
14:57 There is also a lid on the box with the little butterflies. Should I let them go out?
14:59 I studied the switching board.
15:01 I switched all the power to the two near the handle bar.
15:02 It still does not work. Because the light are red maybe??
15:04 Back at the switch board. Restored original situation.
15:08 Yes it seems you have to got both at "green" for it to work.
15:12 I succeeded in doing it. They started to blink and it closed.
15:13 I am at the handle. It still does not work. I pushed the button. The wheel starts to work again.
So I have restored power, it seems.
15:15 When I walked back, everything collapsed and it is dark now.
15:17 The electricity switch board shows everything on green.
15:18 I switched on the light downstairs in first glasshouse.
15:20 Took elevator downstairs. It went to the other side.
15:22 I went in the fireplace. I got the necklage (Yeesha's?)
15:24 I copied the code. I pushed the button and tried to solve the puzzle. It was not that hard if you start at the "right" side.
15:29 I am downstairs.
15:32 I went inside after moveing the handle. I have now access to the two linking books. I go into the "right" one.
(That is what I am supposed to do, or not?)
15:34 Looked at the box.
15:38 I went outside, but I cannot go far. Then went inside again. This must have been the prison. I sounded the horn.
15:39 Found the linking book for going back and used it.
15:40 I went to the other world.
15:43 Walked down the stairs and took the elevator down.
15:47 Played with the electricity thing. Of course, this is only to show you that you have to use the electricity to get the stone down.
Just like in Exile.
15:49 Read the book.
15:54 Continued looking around.
15:58 (I just erased my only picture that I took. How bad.)
16:00 Found telescope.
16:02 Went further down.
16:03 There is a closed gate here.
16:05 I went to the top.
16:07 I am in the top room.
16:09 Went back.
16:10 When I came back, I saw someone "disappear". Went up to bedroom.
16:13 Used handle to move bridge.
16:14 Looked at chessboard.
16:16 Found book outside on table. With translation. The note says "tseeshah". D'ni for Yeesha, I guess.
16:20 I moved the bridge again. Went into the room.
16:21 Some fish.
16:22 You can push the books in the bookshelve.
16:23 Opened the book. Looks like the diary of Yeesha.
16:31 Went outside and moved bridge.
16:32 Moved it back and crossed it.
16:33 Moved it again and crossed it again.
16:34 Used elevator back to observatorium.
16:35 Nobody here. Looked at the viewer.
16:36 On the top there are some kind of looking glasses. I sat in the chair. The red button seems not to work.
16:46 Found a book. Some kind of crystal code: red, light blue, yellow, green and dark blie.
16:56 Pushed the amulet while standing at the viewer. It gave some message.
16:59 Took elevator to middle platform.
17:02 I opened the box with the insects. They fly around the ceeling.
17:05 I quit.
