Sweet, I guess I’m going to have to get a PC at some point. I actually played Riven for iPadOS recently and it was still fun, but the point and click is pretty tedious.

I’m not sure a remake willl ever match the magic of when I originally played in 1998, though. My laptop was so junky I played most of the game under a blanket because the screen was so dark, haha.

Im pretty sure I missed a lot in the first playthrough due to a dark screen haha

But agreed that it will be hard to recreate that magic - Riven really was ahead of its time and is still my favorite of the series

This. Wait for the remake, the original plays like shit on modern Windows versions.

It plays perfectly fine, it uses ScummVM. You’re just spoiled with first person controls and a free roaming environment.
