            "Making of Riven" video and a hardcover keepsake journal.

            -- "Myst," the best-selling CD-ROM game in history,
               continues to break industry records and is still on PC
               Data's top-10 list of PC games, five years after its
               release in 1993.

            -- "Riven: The Sequel to Myst," took more than four
               years to develop and is now available on Digital Video
               Disc (DVD) for PC and Macintosh platforms. Released
               just last year, "Riven" quickly became the best-selling
               game of 1997, selling 1 million units faster than any
               other software application in history, excluding
               Windows 95.
