Kindergarten vs realMyst
Kindergarten
Kindergarten aims to bring you back to the time when you're in kindergarten doing what kindergarteners always do... in addition to the learning, of course. The game is designed more like a puzzle-adventure game rather than a straight-up adventure, since there will be plenty of creeping around the grown-ups as you try to figure out what caused the many things that happened in your kindergarten, including the case of a missing classmate, the janitor cleaning up blood, a teacher who dreads being in the same room as a bunch of kindergarteners, and generally a kindergarten that just feels a bit off.The game is as whimsical as it is entertaining, and for a game in a rather uncharted territory, it ended up feeling like the sort of game that many players regardless of age would love. After all, who hasn't been to a kindergarten to know what it is like, right?
realMyst
realMyst is, despite the similarity of the name, not simply a remake of the original game so that the younger generation and experience the game themselves; it provides a whole new trove of content that is not present in the older version, including a new Rime Age, optional free roam and zip navigation modes, bookmarking your progress, auto-save option and built-in interactive guides to help you along if you get stumped. Aside from the improved musical scores, the graphics in the game has also been updated to match with the times, with not only a day and night cycle (you'll get a flashlight for navigating at night) and weather patterns, but also advanced, dynamic and incredibly realistic effects.If you truly want to try out Myst, this is without a doubt the version that you should get. It's just so much better than the original in so many ways and most importantly, it lives up to the original's legacy.
