I'm wondering if Riven is a prequel to Myst. I've played Myst before and enjoyed it, and now I'm curious about the relationship between these two games.

I'm wondering if Silksong is a prequel to another game or story. I've heard about this game and I'm curious to know if it's meant to be played before something else, or if it stands alone.

Excuse me, I'm a bit confused about something. I was reading about movie sequels and prequels, and I came across this question: "Does a prequel come first?" Now, I'm wondering, isn't the whole idea of a prequel that it's set before the events of the original movie or series? So, by definition, wouldn't it logically have to come first in the timeline of the story? Or am I misunderstanding something here? Could you please clarify this for me? Thanks in advance.

Could you please elaborate on the distinction between a prequel and a sequel in the context of storytelling? Specifically, how do they differ in terms of their placement within a narrative timeline, their purpose, and the types of stories they typically tell? Are there any notable examples of both prequels and sequels in popular culture that might help illustrate these differences?

Excuse me, but could you please clarify something for me? I'm a bit confused about the order of certain creative works. Specifically, I'm wondering if the prequel actually precedes the sequel in terms of narrative timeline? I've always understood that a prequel is meant to provide background or context for events that happen in a later work, but I just want to make sure I'm not misunderstanding the concept. So, does the prequel indeed come before the sequel, or is there some other aspect to their relationship that I'm missing?
