DO NOT BUY! SCAM!!
Purchased. Downloaded. Does not work. Main screen flashes and goes back to my iPad screen.
Broken. Do not buy
Fine, until fatal soft lock bug in selenic age. Since this is an old port, I do not expect patches to be forthcoming. Sad I threw $ away, but I guess I should have known.
Just one deal breaking oversight.
Worked smooth, controller support was smooth, everything was working fine until the fireplace code grid where I found that the menu tab covers up the buttons required to do the puzzle.
Checked if anyone had found a work around, nothing worked outside a recommendation to play on IPad instead.
So much for the ending and final age I guess.

No hints for when you get stuck
And….I got stuck frequently. I had to use online walkthroughs to make it through the whole game. I prefer games that at least give you hints so you don’t have to go online and fine the whole answer. I always wanted to play this since I first saw it back in 1993 and couldn’t figure out what to do back then lol. I didn’t grow up with PC games so maybe thats a disadvantage to figuring this one out.
I’ve played a lot of puzzle games and highly recommend the Forever Lost series! (Actually all their games are great) I also enjoyed Midnight Girl.

RealMyst
I can’t see out the window of the tower above the library. I was able to move the line on the map and hear a whirring noise indicating that the tower moved to a new position but still the windows are not open. Don’t think I’ll see a refund. Bummed

Zeitlos schön
Myst war Jahren mein Einstieg in die mystischen Rätselspiele. Ein Klassiker. Immer noch sehr schön!
Loved the upgrade
After starting with the free portion of Myst mobile, I looked at the reviews of Myst mobile and realMyst and followed a reviewer's advice that the additional cost for the realMyst version was worth the improvement. Wow yes. For the interface alone, plus the graphics. Awesome work, developers.
At the moment, there's a bug in audio in the gear age when my walking is between the outside puzzle and the entry door--it goes silent until I reach either end.
At the moment, the visual transition is bumpy in these places there are slidey doors: the gear age, and the ship age. Specifically, the animation is smooth as I am being taken into the next chamber, then there is an abrupt jump or change in height.

Beautifully put together for iOS
Keep it coming Cyan!
Horrific gameplay and no sound
I bought this for the music and ambience that I remember when I was younger. Unfortunately there was no sound, even after re installing. The movement mechanics are horrifically impossible to control, manipulating anything is a nightmare while attempting to flip a switch etc but you cant because you are not in that minuscule area that will allow you to interact with it. No sound, no water, no music etc and most importantly no settings to attempt to fix it. Waste of 6$ to get an app that should be error free after all these years, and the coup de grâce? (french for that last bit that pisses you off) no support with the app support link.

Love everything Myst
I played Myst when it first came out and now I’m playing again on my IPad. I’m so happy I found it, it’s a keeper.
One of the best games ever made!
They did a good job putting it on iOS, worth the money!
Critical video did not appear
I enjoyed replaying this game. Unfortunately there was one critical game play error. The first time I encountered Atrus, he said to come to D’ni right away, without giving his lengthy explanation, and most importantly, without the missing white page. Other than that everything worked fine, but I had to knock it down to 3 stars since that is such an important game failure.

Good, but no longer recommended
I was extraordinarily excited when realMyst released in 2000. It was like Myst but, well, more real. Ironically, the original Myst held up over time better than this version.
The game itself is actually more solid than the 1993 version. The puzzles, environment, and audio hold up quite well. realMyst boasts true 3D movement, which is a huge improvement over the original game, simply from a navigation standpoint. The original Myst had occasions where a player could easily get lost due to not being able to see a clear transition from one location to the next. When you control your own movement, that obstacle is removed.
While the 3D graphics impressed in 2000, today they’re somewhat lackluster. Detail and view distance are pretty sparse, and the texture quality is pretty grainy with some embarrassing color “speckles” in walls and doors.
The major appeal of this version of Myst is the inclusion of the Rime age. Originally included in realMyst, Rime was built with this engine in mind and while small, it’s enjoyable. It can be a bit tricky to figure out the controls for the puzzle on iOS though. In fact, this is the only version of Myst currently available for iOS that includes Rime, which might be enough to pursuance you to buy it.
The biggest drawback, I think, for realMyst on iOS I think was the timing. This app was released in 2012, and was an iOS update to a 2000 title. Just two years later, realMyst Masterpiece Edition released. Masterpiece has vastly improved graphics, which were further updated years later. It also includes some new Easter eggs and achievements. Overall it’s superior to this app in every way unless you’re dead set on seeing the original 3D release. But, Masterpiece never appeared on iOS, and with the new 2023 edition on iOS out now, there’s no reason to expect they’d invest the resources to update this app to the Masterpiece Edition.
Nearly everything that realMyst does, Myst 2023 does better. I have to find myself recommending that version unless you’re strictly here for the Rime age.

No air play
Anyone else having issues trying to airplay the game over Apple TV? Keeps shutting down.
7,99 für was??
Dieses Spiel ist wohl eher an nostalgische Zielgruppen gerichtet…
Die Qualität der Steuerung, die Umsetzung und das Spielerlebnis sind eher in den 1990ern hängen geblieben. Die Sprachbarriere tut ihr übriges, obwohl ich nicht untalentiert bin. Gut, die Grafik wurde auf 1999 „gepimpt“. Yeah… - LEUTE, für 7,99 € erwarte ich schon ein bisschen was, wenn man sich so den Wettbewerb ansieht. Im besten Falle ist dieses Spiel ein GRATIS wert.
KEINE Kaufempfehlung. Und mein Geld hätte ich auch gern wieder. Sorry.

Toll wie immer
Einziges Manko bisher: Auf der Insel des Osmoischen Zeitalters, die mit den 5 Geräuschen, funktioniert auf meinem iPad die Tunnelfahrt nicht richtig. Es gibt keinerlei Veränderung der Anzeigetafel/des Kompasses, so dass man keine Chance hat, den richtigen Weg alleine zu finden.
A good gift
My dad would tell story’s about how he played when he was little so when I found out it was playable again I got it for his birthday.
