Myst And Riven Being Ported To Pocket PC?
Posted by Janak Parekh in "SOFTWARE" @ 11:00 AM
Mean Hamster Software (yes, that's the name of the company) develops software for a variety of handheld platforms, and they have an upcoming page... which lists upcoming Myst and Riven releases for handheld devices!
I haven't played either game for a long time, but I'll be keeping an eye on this -- I suspect the simple UI should port over fairly easily to a touch screen, and it'd be a nice game to replay on my Pocket PC. ;) I'd especially love to see a VGA version, but none of the screenshots appear to be in 480x640. MYST Obsession, linked below, reports that it'll take 29MB of flash or internal memory, which isn't too bad.
