What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
- Absolutely stunning visuals
Myst’s greatest strength is how it tells its story.
The randomised puzzle mode adds replayability, but it does introduce some technical issues.
There's a special feature that lets you enable subtitles for every important sound.
Art direction and visual design always was a core strength of Cyan as a developer, even when the tech of all their older titles is now badly dated the style of it still typically is beautiful, and the music score and sound design underlying their games also still holds up well.
I think it will play fine with any VR controller, very few buttons are used.
