> [@HPL](#): > > Myst Correct! 😃 I love that game, one day I’m going to buy the [soundtrack](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00000603V/qid=1126235015/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-2585807-9265613?v=glance&s=music&n=507846) from it. My favorite place to stand was in the mechanical age hallway where you could hear both “themes” from the two sons’ rooms intermingled. It’s really cool.
