The game begins at and revolves around [[Myst]] Island. The [[Stoneship]], [[Mechanical]], [[Selenitic]], and [[Channelwood]] [[Age]]s are featured (all four of which contain numerous clues to solving the game); those of [[Haven]] and [[Spire]] are hinted at though not expanded upon until ''[[Myst IV: Revelation]]''; and [[Earth|D'ni]] (more specifically: [[K'veer]]) is seen at the end, with the imprisoned [[Atrus]] sitting there at a desk. | The game begins at and revolves around [[Myst]] Island.
