Test your logic in this story-driven game
Myst is a paid adventure game from Cyan Worlds, which is a remastered iteration of the beloved retro video game. First introduced in 1993, this first-person puzzle game quickly gained popularity due to its immersive point-and-click gameplay, enthralling plot, and distinct graphics that set it apart from other games of its era.
Similar to well-loved titles that center on discovery and problem-solving elements, like Eastshade and The Witness, Myst Mobile doesn’t lack unexpected twists and a captivating storyline that will undoubtedly engross players. Moreover, it’s sure to deliver a unique and unforgettable gaming experience, thanks to its improved audio-visuals.
Welcome to the island
Myst Mobile presents an intricate storyline that features two brothers, Sirrus and Achenar, who have been ensnared in the Age Books by their father, Atrus. You’ll take on the role of a faceless stranger who arrives on Myst island and helps Atrus in freeing his two sons. To unravel the mystery behind the brothers’ vanishing, you must investigate the island and crack the puzzles along the way.
With a non-linear storyline, the game will allow you to explore the island in any order, which makes way for multiple endings depending on your choices throughout the game. The complex puzzles, serving as convoluted barricades, are all interlinked, implying that you need to decipher each one to advance deeper into the game. Devoid of any combat sequence, the game is more of a cerebral challenge than an action-packed one.
The game’s strongest point is its sophisticated and detailed graphics. Its aesthetics are inspired by the Steampunk theme, which gives it a unique atmosphere both in virtual reality and 2D displays. It also boasts a haunting and atmospheric soundtrack that adds to the immersive quality of the game. To begin your quest, simply click on any location, which will trigger actions, puzzles, and events.

Being among the forerunners in non-linear storytelling and open-world gaming, Myst has become a timeless masterpiece that continues to captivate both adventure seekers and puzzle enthusiasts. This updated version elevates the gaming experience to new levels and puts the emphasis on players’ mental acuity rather than their reflexes. Above all, it has successfully transitioned into the digital era and holds its own against newer releases.
