' Seventy per cent of tablet owners use their device while watching TV at least several times a week. ' Cyan’s goal in working with Legendary is not just to create a compelling TV drama but to develop a true transmedia product that will include a companion video game that extends the story across both media,' Cyan Worlds claimed in a statement published by Deadline. Cyan Worlds still feels there's life in the old dog yet, however, and has reportedly teamed up with production company Legendary TV & Digital Media to develop a TV series and tie-in game set in the world of Myst. Its sequels, including a massively multiplayer online project, didn't fare so well, and recent re-releases on Nintendo's 3DS and iOS have been poorly received. While the confusing and slow nature of the game itself put some off, the game was a major seller: ported to Windows, Sega Saturn, Sony PlayStation, the 3DO and even Microsoft's Pocket PC, the game held the record of the world's best-selling PC game for years until it was dethroned by EA's The Sims in 2002. Developed by Cyan Worlds, then simply Cyan, a company founded by brothers Robyn and Rand Miller, the game launched on Apple's Mac OS and featured graphics far more impressive than had ever before been seen - thanks largely to the use of pre-rendered backdrops. Released in 1993, graphic adventure title Myst was the game that propelled Brøderbund into the big league. Classic adventure franchise Myst is to return in a slightly unusual manner: a TV series with tie-in game title.
