Myst can be played on devices that have an A12 chip or later, or an M1 or M2 chip. Cyan says that the game has been optimized for M1 devices and runs supercharged on M2 chips in particular, with graphics that rival console graphics. The game supports keyboards and trackpads, as well as gamepads.
All of Myst Island is accessible for no cost, and those who want to play more can unlock the Ages beyond Myst Island add-on for a one-time purchase of $14.99. There is a launch promotion right now that drops the price down to $9.99.

Among the many versions of Myst that I have, I was most recently gifted the version for the Oculus Quest. It’s pretty nifty!
Get ready to sell that Facebook piece of shit.
It won’t stop working just because there’s competition!
Doofus!
You’re just a nasty person aren’t you? So glad I don’t live in your world, so much hate and anger at everything.
Those who have used Macs for a long time might remember when Myst was originally released as a HyperCard stack.
I remember that when Hypercard was an amazing piece of new software that really made the Mac more special. Myst showed how it could be used in incredible ways.
Going back even further, does anyone remember when Wizardry was released for the Apple II? We finally had our own great Dungeon Crawler that the PC’ers didn’t have.
