 PROFILE
Cyan has colored the world impressed. One of few remaining independent video game studios, the company is responsible for the hit "Myst," which has sold more than 7 million copies since its release in 1993. Its sequel "Riven," released in 1997, has sold about 3 million copies. Both games combine 3-D animation and high-quality sound with a cerebral storyline of discovery. In 2000 the company announced it would release two more "Myst" titles and that it was working on an Internet-based virtual reality game, code-named Mud Pie. Brothers Rand and Robyn Miller founded the company in 1987 and produced early works like "The Manhole" and "Cosmic Osmo." Robyn left Cyan in 1998 to start a movie production house.
