Myst, which was remade and optimized for M1 Macs in 2021, is reportedly coming to the iPhone and iPad as Myst Mobile to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the game and that it will cost $14.99. Like the Mac version, the new one is said to be optimized for Apple silicon.

@johnvoorhees I was just thinking about Myst, remembering how beautiful and cool it was, so it's funny to see it come up today. I bought a copy way back when and never finished it, am thinking about going back to it (on my PC).

@johnvoorhees I wonder what’s different form the current Myst on iOS?

@johnvoorhees @drgrigg i think i will have purchased Myst more times than I’ve bought all other games combined.

with Myst and Portal as extreme exceptions, i don’t own very many games. they’re not usually my thing.

i have strangely slow reflexes to most people and it makes about 90% of games either impossible or at least deeply unfun.

@isaiah @johnvoorhees I'm very much the same. At 71, my reflexes are pretty poor. I just bought myself a cheapish Windows machine in order to be able to replay games like Portal and Portal 2, which I lost when Apple dropped support for 32-bit applications. Myst is tempting, though!
