It reminds me Myst. killercow Well-Known Member Apr 8, 2009 3,784 3 38 https://twitter.com/killercow #8 killercow, Sep 19, 2012 This game is a true gem. It's like myst but with a box. Mind you it's not that complicated and there's no backtracking here but it can get tricky and the atmosphere/visuals are top notch. Man what a week for ios (and gaming) this turns out to be! chris1a Well-Known Member Mar 10, 2010 1,335 1 0 Sweden #9 chris1a, Sep 19, 2012 Is it like a box in a box thing? Or do you walk around to different rooms? killercow Well-Known Member Apr 8, 2009 3,784 3 38 https://twitter.com/killercow #10 killercow, Sep 19, 2012 It's a box in a box thing but the box changes in between chapters. It's really cleverly built and there's some kind of storyline too you can turn around, pinch and double tap to zoom and interact. chris1a Well-Known Member Mar 10, 2010 1,335 1 0 Sweden #11 chris1a, Sep 19, 2012 Ok thanks. Will prob pick this one up. Nicklaus Member Sep 19, 2012 8 0 0 #12 Nicklaus, Sep 19, 2012 On the fence with this app. Has anybody played it?

I got it and it's great! Box of realMyst is a good description to it. For those who love puzzlers and games like Zen Bound this game is for you! GSJ1977 Well-Known Member Jul 6, 2012 210 0 0 #14 GSJ1977, Sep 19, 2012 Finished it. It's f-ing awesome. Unique, very beautiful and tactile, and deeply atmospheric. Criticisms? It's perhaps a little too easy and a little too short, and the ending is just a sequel hook which I always hate, but I wouldn't let those things put you off. This is an experience rather than a "game" and it's one that shouldn't be missed. drloony Well-Known Member Jul 19, 2012 310 0 0 #15 drloony, Sep 19, 2012 Uh hu, I won't be missing it krautboy Well-Known Member Apr 20, 2011 476 0 16 #16 krautboy, Sep 20, 2012 Last edited: Sep 20, 2012 A wonderfull,beautifull game. Fall has just set into the Netherlands and the wind and rain bashing on the windows only contribute to the mood. With the tv off and a glass (well,make that a bottle ) of red wine i had an excellent evening. Unfortunetly when i started it up this morning it didn't save my progress. I finished chapter 2 last night,but i can't start chapter 3. For this kind of games that's not a good thing. Edit: after 2 more restarts it seems to have recognised my save again.phew.. Pitta Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2008 3,413 132 63 Male Italy #17 Pitta, Sep 20, 2012 Just bought and sinked 1 hour in this gem. AMAZING. Feel really like an original Myst game, without the walking. Great atmosphere and super polished experience. Can't wait to play more. Mrwubbs Well-Known Member Feb 19, 2012 498 0 16 #18 Mrwubbs, Sep 20, 2012 Damn I was gonna say that! Lol NathanQuest Well-Known Member Mar 13, 2009 73 0 6 Cologne, Germany #19 NathanQuest, Sep 20, 2012 Help, please! Absolutly fantastic. This is like one of the most fascinating games I have played on the (new) iPad. Highly recommended to anyone who is even just vaguely interested in puzzlegames. BUT: I can't get past the riddle with the sun-amulet rotating the "block" in the middle of the table... I just don't know what to make of the arrows in the middle? What order? Anyone? 9uillaume6onte Member Jun 27, 2012 5 0 0 France #20 9uillaume6onte, Sep 20, 2012 How long did it take you to finish the game? (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
