![]() All of the pictures in Riven with my initials are pictures that I touched up in a similar fashion." This is something my limited Photoshop skills are prepared to handle, so I pulled both picts into Photoshop and copied the weeds from the pict with weeds and put them in the pict without weeds. The one with my initials was missing the weeds. "In this case, the weeds on the ground were only in one of the pictures. When looking at the two pictures separately (like when you have to walk to the button, wait for the car to arrive, then walk back), they appear to be OK, but when I saw them right after one another (switching states without having to change screens) it's easy to see when there are differences between the pictures. "For this particular shot, there are two different pictures - one for when the Magcar is there, one for when the Magcar is gone. "When performing the incredibly meticulous task of assembling all of the scenes in Riven (and then testing all of the various states), I sometimes was able to catch things that the art department missed on their first pass. Why are they there you ask? Well the initials are Richard Watson's of Cyan, so I'll let him explain. They are only four pixels high and hard to see if you don't know where they are. Hidden near the MagLev on Temple island are the initials 'RAWA'. These three are Rand Miller's children, Kinslee, Kerryn and Kara. When you have done this, look to the right of the screen and you'll see three more children. If you go to the 'side' entrance to the Gateroom and climb under the gate, you'll find yourself in a tunnel, no children yet? They'll only appear when the Gateroom is rotated so that an opening is facing this tunnel. The third set of children are a little better hidden. I have made the image brighter and circled Abraham to make it easier for you to make them out. Abraham is the hardest to see, but if you look to the right of Grace and directly above Alex you should be able to find him. These are Robyn Miller's children, Grace, Alex, and Abraham. There are in fact three children in this shot. Look up in the left hand corner and you should see at least two children's faces. If you come back later when 'Cho' has left you'll find the next set of children. At the start of the game, 'Cho' is dumped here by the Moiety scout. To the right of the linking cage you'll find that you can look down at a cliff. The second set of faces can be found nearby. These children are Richard Vander Wende's daughters, Helen and Evelyn. At the bottom of this frame you should be able to make out two children. To find the first pair, exit the linking cell where you start the game. All the easter eggs in Riven only fall into the first three categories however.Īs a special tribute to their children, the three 'head' guys at Cyan, Rand Miller, Robyn Miller, and Richard Vander Wende, hid pictures of their children in the rocks of Riven. Easter eggs can be such things as simple images, sounds, movies, and in some cases, games. Others however, can be deeply embedded and require specific procedures to be followed before they can be accessed. Some easter eggs can be placed out in the open where they can be easily stumbled upon. Proceed at your own risk!Īn easter egg is a hidden novelty that can be found in many computer programs. Also, if you're just looking for hints to the Easter Eggs I would recommend you try Massimo Fiorentino's site first and then come back here later for the complete background on all the eggs. If you would prefer to find them yourself please bookmark this site and come back when you're ready. This section contains some major spoilers for the Riven Easter Eggs. ![]()
