He served as co-designer of the popular computer game Myst, which held the title of best-selling computer game from its release in 1993 until the release of The Sims seven years later.[1][2] He also co-directed and co-lead designed the sequel to Myst, Riven,[3] which was the best-selling computer game of its year of release, 1997.[4] Miller composed and performed the soundtracks to both games.[5] He also acted in Myst, portraying one of the antagonists, Sirrus (with brother and Cyan-cofounder Rand appearing as Achenar and Atrus).[5] He co-wrote the first Myst novel, The Book of Atrus.
