Ratings and Reviews
A timeless piece of art
While I understand that Riven in gameplay might seem out of fashion today for people who are unaware of its original significance, it is important to not forget how old it is (and that it is for instance older than realMyst). Irrespective of that - I still find it's story as eerie and going under my skin as when I first played it. Wandering on this dying world, where every piece you see can be seen in context to the whole story. I know of no other game makers that ever applied such an artistic approach to making a game. But - you need to make time to appreciate its slowness that is much unlike today's rollercoaster rides.
It's Riven and it's great
After reading some of the reviews for this game I felt like I needed to write something here. This is the classical point and click Riven. It's bizarre that some would consider this masterpiece as boring due to the fact that you "go for one picture to another" we all want a remake of Riven, but this does not imply that the original is boring, not even outdated given how beautiful this game looks on the iPad. I highly recommend it, it's unforgettable to visit World 5 of Gehn.
Waste of money
Dreadful navigation. Completely unplayable.
