Classic Adventure Game Myst Headed to iPhone

myst_eurofront.jpgThe original edition of Myst (that's right Myst), the classic exploration and puzzle game first launched in the early nineties, is in the process of being ported to the iPhone, according to an employee of Cyan Worlds. Cyan Employee Chogon writes in the Myst Online Forums:

This is a small project that probably a very few of you know about. We are porting Myst to the iPhone. Ok, before some of you start groaning, this is an outside funded project that is keeping a few developers employed... but it is really more than that. It is an interesting and fun project. This is also a very small team with three of us (which includes Derek, Rand (not Randy) and myself).

The immersive graphic adventure game first appeared in 1993 for the Mac. Versions of Myst later found their way to numerious other platforms, including Windows, the PSP and Ninendo DS, among others.

A huge hit, both with the public and critics, Myst, which made excellent use of the then nascent CD-ROM format, held the title of all time best-selling PC game for years, until The Sims eclipsed it back in 2002. There have been several sequels and spin-offs in other media over the years.
