&quot;GREAT APP!!&quot; 
&quot;Best ipad game ever!&quot; 
&quot;Amazing.&quot; 
&quot;Amazing game!&quot; 
&quot;Better than the original&quot; 

realMyst is all-things Myst, but amazingly more real. You can explore anywhere, unfettered, and in realtime! Pick your own path through the forest on Myst Island. Look lazily upward into the Channelwood Age trees. Relax next to the rippling fountain as the  sun sets in the Selenitic Age. Spin around for a full panoramic tour of Sirrus’ throne room. Seek shelter from the thunderstorm in Stoneship Age. 

And what could possibly make that experience even more real? Now you can have all of that on your iOS device with nothing between you and Myst but the touch of your finger - the sheerest of interfaces between you and the surrealistic island adventure that will become your world.

*Features...

• iOS (iPad 2 or newer / iPhone 4s or newer)
• All the original Myst Ages plus bonus Rime Age
• Full Myst gameplay and interaction

## realMyst Reviews in United States

### ***** "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&#039;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&#039;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!
-- M..iT, 2024-04-24

### *---- "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.
-- Donna Caudill, 2023-10-03

### ***** "One of the best games ever made!"
They did a good job putting it on iOS, worth the money!
-- MasenP, 2023-09-23

### ***-- "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.
-- Weege, 2023-01-28

### ***** "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.
-- Prayer app, 2023-01-02

### ***-- "No sound"
Looking forward to playing an old childhood favorite. But there is no sound. I see some similar reviews. I recall sound being one of and best aspects.
