Description
* Please check system requirements below before purchasing. (MacOS 10.12.6, Metal supported, 1GB VRAM)*
From Cyan, the studio that brought you Myst, comes Obduction, an all-new adventure that brings the spirit of Cyan’s earlier games into the new millennium. Obduction resurrects the feeling of finding yourself in the middle of new worlds to explore, discover, solve, and become part of.
As you walk beside the lake on a cloudy night, a curious, organic artifact falls from the sky and inexplicably, without asking permission, transports you across the universe.
The worlds of Obduction reveal their secrets only as you explore, coax, and consider them. And as you bask in the otherworldly beauty and explore through the enigmatic landscapes, remember that the choices you make will have substantial consequences.
Obduction. Make it home.

Ratings and Reviews
I waited years for this game and finished it in two weeks :(
WAY too easy…and very short, don’t expect anything on the order of Riven.
The world designs are of course fantastic, but the story is not completely flushed out (or not well revealed). The actual puzzles are much too simple, while some “puzzles” are just obtuse (and require that you speak Russian). I was hoping to avoid headaches similar to Uru’s, but that unfortunately didn’t completely pan out. Some puzzles don’t even make it known that you’ve completed them (the Villein chambers), adding a fair bit of frustration.
Cyan obviously put alot of hard work into this game, but unfortunately some of it still seems misguided. Please continue to keep perfecting the genre and get it right!
Not worth Myst or Riven
Most of the puzzles have no clues to help along. So a walkthrough is necessary at some points. And the game crashes each time i get close to th wounded Villein. Takes forever to load and often hangs for minutes when I move.
Runs very well on Mac Mini M1 8G
I probably havent played a game since Myst.
I was surprised how well this works on Mac Mini M1 with only 8G ram. Default settings were moved to max. Detail is amazing. Display is 43" LG 4k TV
