The original Mac version of Myst was written in Hypercard, but used XCMDS to allow the display of color pictures.

Later versions on windows etc, were farmed out by Cyan to other development teams who basically re-did the work in traditional languages, using the Mac Hypercard version as a reference.

(Oh, and all the 3D was done using Strata 3D, also on the Mac)
