Myst Mobile in IOS

A challenging puzzle adventure

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

88/100

Myst Mobile is a stunning technical achievement that brings the legendary 1993 puzzle adventure into the modern era with fully realized 3D environments. This isn't just a port of the original static images; it’s a mobile version of the recent remake, allowing you to freely roam the mysterious island. The atmosphere remains as haunting and engrossing as ever, perfectly captured through the updated lighting and sound design.

Playing on a touch screen feels surprisingly natural, though the game truly shines if you use a Bluetooth controller. The puzzles are notoriously difficult and require genuine deduction and note-taking—something rarely seen in modern mobile gaming. It’s a slow-burn experience that demands your full attention, rewarding you with one of the most compelling narratives in gaming history. For those who played the original, the nostalgia is potent; for newcomers, it's a masterclass in environmental storytelling.

Welcome to Myst: a starkly beautiful island, eerily tinged with mystery and shrouded in intrigue. Available now, to download and begin your adventure FOR FREE!

Journey to Myst Island and begin to unravel the mystery you have been thrust into. As you learn what happened on the island, you will find yourself playing a key role in an epic story whose ending has not yet been written.

The island is full of secrets – learn your surroundings and discover what you can interact with. Each puzzle you solve will bring you closer to exploring more of the island, and reveal methods to reach other stunning and surreal worlds called “Ages”.

With an in-app purchase to unlock the other Ages of Myst, you will see even greater challenges await you, and discover deeper connections and puzzles that Myst has to offer. Uncover a story of ruthless family betrayal, and make choices that will affect both you, and the world of Myst itself.

For those who are already familiar with Myst, this version is built from the ground up and available to play in real-time 3D. It’s teeming with new art, new sound, re-imagined interactions, accessibility options, localization for many different languages, and even optional puzzle randomization.

OPTIMIZED FOR IOS

For M1 and M2 iOS devices such as the latest generations of the iPad Pro and iPad Air, players will find that the graphics settings of Myst Mobile default to “Epic” settings, which is the highest the graphics settings of Myst can possibly be set to on any platform. Explorers of Myst Mobile on M1 and M2 devices will be able to revel in the game’s beauty like never before on mobile!

Playing Myst on the go is incredibly easy and accessible with Myst Mobile on iOS. Players will find a variety of input options to play the game, in the way that is most comfortable to them: gamepad, touch controls, keyboard and trackpad input from Smart & Magic Folios are all supported.
