I’m working on a Riven-related project, which I’m not really at liberty to give details about just yet, suffice to say that it requires a good, accurate map of the 5 islands and the 233rd age. I googled and manually searched for such a map for a few days, to no avail. I asked several people who I expected to know (the good folks at the Guild of Cartographers<\/a>), but nowhere could I find a decent map.<\/p>\n

Then I found the amazing collection of MystRiven<\/a> (an UruObsession member), including a poster-sized map of Riven:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

I asked MystRiven where he got the map, and he told me that it was from a Riven strategy guide by Prima. I searched Amazon, and found it<\/a>. Even better, I found it used<\/a>, for $4.00 including shipping. I sent a message to all of the sellers inquiring about the status of the map\/poster, and one helpful store informed me that the poster was included. Long story short – I got that map.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Remembering how infuriating it was to not be able to find a good map, I promptly scanned my map and pieced it together in Photoshop, so that anyone else who needs a good Riven map won’t have to go through what I did.<\/p>\n
