It boasts a higher resolution and aesthetical quality than the mobile ports and it enables you to reap the full benefit of Masterpiece Edition’s free-roam exploration.
With a more compact screen and the option to alternate to touch screen at the drop of a hat, however, is absolutely the selling point of this Switch port. To be honest, realMyst looks kind of ropey on a big screen, with some textures strained and the performance suffering just a little bit. I find some games are just more naturally suited to handheld mode than being placed in the dock. It’s the definitive edition of the original Myst and now it’s found its way to Switch. The game is now explorable in real-time, there’s weather effects, a hint guide, flashlight, and even the option to play the game the original way. Then to celebrate the game’s 20th anniversary, we got realMyst: Masterpiece Edition which was essentially a director’s cut of a director’s cut. This was a reimaging of the original game, complemented by a more modern control scheme, more enhanced graphical effects, and a remastered soundtrack, along with a new Rime age. Still, the foundation of an incredible adventure is very much intact, which is why Cyan rebuilt everything as the magnificent realMyst. The movement system is quite outdated, the textures look rough blended with the full motion video, and the loading screens are … well … long. It took you to a far-off place on an unforgettable fantasy adventure.īack then, it was a marvel in design, but structurally it hasn’t aged very well. Sure, the 7th Guest took a lot of the headlines at the time, but Myst was extraordinary. I remember the first time I saw it play out on my PC and having my mind absolutely blown. 1993 was an interesting time for the point & click adventure with Lucasarts hitting their stride and Cyan stunning the world with Myst.
