Myst III: Exile is nonlinear: Much of the exploration and puzzles can be completed in any order. The order presented in this walk-through isn't the only path or necessarily the best path. However, following this walk-through ensures completion of all the age's puzzles.
Furthermore, if you get stuck, you can always return to J'nanin and attempt another age (or if you need clues or information). If you follow this walk-through, though, you won't need to return to J'nanin until you have completed the Amateria age!
Amateria resembles parts of a roller coaster. Tracks swerve up, down, and sideways around the age; the tracks wind through several buildings, most of which house the age's puzzles. You start the age in front of Amateria's central tower. The path ahead (leading to the tower) is impassable; the flooring isn't whole. You will discover some sort of hexagon button mechanism on the left side of the impassable path. You can't do anything with the mechanism yet--you need to explore Amateria first.
From your arrival point, proceed to the left (as if you were facing the central tower). As you move along the path, you encounter a linking book back to J'nanin. Should you get stuck or need to return to the lesson age, J'nanin, you can use this book. Once back in J'nanin, you will have to enter the Amateria tusk once again to link back to this age.
Continue along the path over stairs and walkways until you curve around to the right. You'll encounter a console along this path; if you face the console, you face what appears to be a large metallic tube, which you soon discover is part of a balance. Time for a puzzle!
