There are Mac installers for all major releases of Myst 1 to 5. However, when I installed Myst 4 on my MacBook with Apple Silicon, the game does not start. It immediately quits without any feedback.

Do the games only run on Intel Macs? Can I get them to work on Apple Silicon?

Cyan is working with Codeweavers - the developers who helped us update the Myst series of games in 2018 - to make the affected games compliant with Apple's updated requirements. Namely, that all apps are 64-bit in order to be compatible with any MacOS post-Catalina.

Until the developers' work is complete, some of our games may be unusable if your MacOS is updated to Catalina.

Cyan's games that are available for macOS that are 64-bit compliant:

Obduction
Myst: Masterpiece Edition
realMyst: Masterpiece Edition
Riven: The Sequel to Myst
Myst III: Exile

Cyan's games that available for macOS that are not currently 64-bit compliant:

Myst IV: Revelation
Myst V: End of Ages
URU: Complete Chronicles


Cyan and Codeweavers are working on the digital fix for the affected games and hope to have the remedy in place as soon as possible.

We don't have an estimate for when this will be complete.

Thank you for your patience through this process.

If it was as easy as a patch, it'd be done long before now.

The fix needed is far more involved.
