Reviews: What People Think About Myst Mobile

I know that this is a great game, it did things games had not done before, and I never managed to solve the DS version but I spent quite a bit of time on it. Because it was a gorgeous world and the music too.
But on mobile, it’s a different experience. There’s no tutorial on the controls, and they’re rather jerky where you wouldn’t expect, and smooth in sudden ways. Might need a tutorial for the settings such as adjusting graphics quality.
I feel like what I find issue with would be resolved if there was a suitable tutorial for newcomers, esp as mobile and other controllers are a different experience, and also a smoother and better moving around control experience.
Trying to look around and move and end up bumping into things and not getting to see notes up close was a bummer, esp having to switch around perspectives left or right. It also felt like there was a narrative missing after [spoilers]
The guy had his book fall. After all now there’s someone else who ended up here. I could’ve sworn there was some thought bubbles in the original as well, who knows, I could be wrong
But basically, this adaptation for mobile needs some more adapting. I hope the best for a future update

Okay, I haven’t yet played through this game but so far, it’s awesome. Kudos to the Developers for a beautiful reboot of a venerable old-school point-and-click adventure on its 30th anniversary. I’m playing on a 5th edition iPad Pro 12.9” with an M1 chip, running iOS 16, and the graphics are stunningly beautiful, rivaling any console game I’ve yet to encounter. The controls are smooth, the sound quality and music is excellent, no constructive criticism to offer yet — and I’ve been gaming on iOS since 2009, having posted many reviews (including a substantive number of negative ones). Anyway, I made the IAP to get the intro discount but also to express my support of Cyan for what I hope will be a masterpiece of mobile gaming. …So far, so good — I will try to update this review at a later date after I have had a chance to make significant progress or likely even play through until the end.

Finally, I was able to maneuver the difficult controls to get the book open. Something is playing on the screen, although it’s difficult to get close enough to figure out what it is. I keep tapping the book, nothing seems to happen. I’ve swung around in the dark, tapped the cave opening, and nothing. No way to access settings, figure out what to do, or anything. After about five minutes, I closed the app.
Edit: I closed the app and started over. This time, I went straight ahead to the book rather than going to the left first. The controls should not let you move anywhere other than straight ahead, because once you do, you can’t go straight to the book to go in. I’m going to keep playing, but this was not a good opening.
