Has anyone been able to get this to work? I downloaded the full app on my iPad Air (4th gen) and it just crashes the instant I open it.
Runs fine on my iPad Air 4th gen, FWIW.

Re: Remastered 'Myst Mobile' Game Now Available on iPhone and iPad
#52recently cyan announced a full re-make of riven. im excited. they said it will be free-roam and presumably will have an on-rails option as well. i would have preferred on-rails only really -- the world is more romantic when your view of it is limited. im disappointed in cyan. for decades (?) after riven they just made weird mobile games and remasters of their old games that werent any good, broken even. then they mad…
The need to swap out CDs so frequently (every time you changed worlds) was a bit of a let-down with Riven. It got many things right, but that was a bit of a speedbump. I kinda liked Myst IV too, but besides the original, it never seemed like another of Cyan's games really hit the same mark.
The DVD version was the one to have.

#54For anyone who loved Myst, give Quern a go. A real gem and very myst-like. I also really loved Cyan Worlds more recent original game Obduction.
Great recommendations. My wife and I played and solved Obduction together too, it was a ton of fun!
I found Obduction to be impossible to figure out in some places without hints.

#55I remind you the old Myst run's great on any platform Scummvm supports.

#56A game series with an imagination, scenery and music unlike anything else. I had great time playing Myst and Riven.

#57Is this better than the Real Myst version in the store? New https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/myst-mobile/id6444813759 Real Myst https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/realmyst/id524988885 Real is $10 (CAD, probably $7.99 usd) and the new one is "free" with in app purchases. Not sure what that means in practice. Edit: unlocking new is $13.99 CAD which is probably $10 USD
Myst Island is free on the new one but the ages are a one time IAP. Kind of a neat way to let folks try the game out IMO.
Incidentally, I think that was Apple's original intent for the IAP... until it got "creatively" repurposed to sell spendable resources.

Riven would be great.
I know that The Starry Expanse Project[0] has been working on a full 3D version for many years. I think they have stopped, because of the Cyan project, but it looked like they did some great work. Maybe some of it got wrapped into the official port.
Sounds like a weird experience. Sorry for that. I suspect there may be a bit of a weird fanbase with Myst, though. I think some folks took it pretty far.

Is it though? Games used to be a one time purchase. Now, it's multiple purchases just to play the one game
I don't think it's multiple purchases to play the game. The beginning of the game is free, then there's a single purchase to unlock the rest. It's the same as the old "free demo" model.
Another recent example of this working pretty well is Dragon Quest XI. The demo allows you to essentially play the full game, with no restrictions, for the first 5-8 hours of the storyline before you purchase to progress further.

Ah, I misread "ages are a one time purchase" as each age is purchased separately. read it too quick i guess
