A classic!

Sure, the resolution is outdated and the iPad version lacks some of the additional gfx elements of the PC version. However, it doesn’t change the fact that Riven remains to be one of the best constructed game worlds ever and it is worth exploring it today as it would have been 20 yrs ago. (I’ve only played and finished this game 2 weeks ago the first time) You year people talk about Myst, but this surpasses it in every way!

Ooh, I'd been waiting for this!

I was hoping they'd bring out Riven for the iPad. I loved being able to immerse myself in the original Myst again, and the sequel has far more scope and a better storyline.

Compared to the original Myst, Riven is better in every sense - but compared to modern games, it does feel its age. You may find that the movements feel clunky, you can see the low resolution (especially during animations) and the lack of background animations such as ripples in water is quite noticeable now.

Nevertheless, there's no faulting the storyline, nor the undeniable beauty of the Age of Riven (even though the original graphics don't do it justice). Although it's costly for an iPad app, I have found it to be a worthy buy. Riven is a gem from a time when this kind of quality was without equal, and most games - even those with polished graphics, crafted for the modern age - still cannot equal it now.

An incredible experience. One of the best games on the iPad

I played this back in 1997 (but was not able to solve and complete the game). I chanced upon it in the App Store and was ecstatic that it is as immersive as I remembered and I finally finished riven. Age has not diminished Riven.
