    Bug, bug, bug, bug one more bug.
    Only bug, Unable to finish the game... But how do you go about marketing such a thing, they have to be ashamed.

    I guess this was an iconic puzzle game 25 years ago, but it's quite tame by today's standards. The 2021 version for the Xbox is also very clunky, and a bit buggy. It's very apparent that the controls were made for a mouse and keyboard, and inputting dates and clicking buttons to form a pattern on an 8x8 grid using a controller was like pulling teeth.

    There's just nothing to recommend here.

    Thought this was a good remaster of the original game. The original game basically influenced a whole genre of puzzle games and also games in general by showing you can add an actual storyline to a game, most games weren't really doing that at that time. The game does demand a lot from the player as it doesn't give automatic hints if needed, and it's really something you have to interactThought this was a good remaster of the original game.

The game does demand a lot from the player as it doesn't give automatic hints if needed, and it's really something you have to interact with the environment to figure out how to proceed. Some of the puzzles are really tough though, I will say this version if you add the subtitles it makes some of the puzzles a lot easier. I think this is a good remaster, although I will say that some of the controls are unclear as the game doesn't explain that you have to use the joysticks to move a lever, I think that could of been explained. I played the game on gamepass, if you do buy this game honestly I would wait for it on sale as there's not a whole lot of replay value.… Expand

    I seriously don't think this game deserves all the backlash I've been reading elsewhere. Compared to today's game's it definitely doesn't have a WOW factor but for us that was there when it originally released it's a great trip down memory lane.

I would have given this a bad score considering I enjoyed the HD graphics but was very much against the lousy new characters they replaced the old actual actor's with however a new patch just dropped that replaced the original characters back in so all is good now. Hopefully they eventually remake the rest of the series.… Expand

    We tried this restored version of Myst on Xbox Series S and enjoyed it very much. To see the work of Cyan always has a certain effect, as well as trying to solve the proposed puzzles. For those who had already played the original almost thirty years ago, a tour around the island is always recommended. For those who had already relived the magic of Myst through VR or some other re-release (realMyst, for example) it is a little less so, especially if you don't have an Xbox Game Pass subscription. For those, however, who had never heard of this adventure, this is a unique opportunity to recover one of the pieces of videogame history.

    Myst Remake is technically the best form of the classic that you can have today, but its contents are still the same as the 1993 version. It can be a little archaic to play for today's standards, but is still a fascinating experience.
