No idea why, but I still remember the smell of my old PS discs—like plastic and nostalgia, mixed together. Anyway, guess what? Days of Play 2025 just dropped something interesting. If you’re somewhere in Asia and it’s around June 5th noon, you can dive into some PS1 classics: Myst and Riven. Yep, really! These games won’t cost you a thing extra if you’re on PS Plus Premium/Deluxe.
So, what about Myst and Riven, huh? Like, what’s the deal? Well, both games are up for grabs solo too; saw ’em listed on the Indonesian PS Store. Prices in the US? Total mystery till tomorrow morning—curse you, time zones!
And yes, you can play these gems on both PS5 and PS4, which is nice. Weird thing though, no trophies popping up on servers yet. But hey, the Myst re-release on Steam has achievements, so maybe we’ll get lucky.
Thinking back, Myst first hit in ’93, crafted by Cyan. You stroll around this island, unearthing family secrets via a mysterious book. Choices you make actually sway how it ends. Riven came out in ’97, a sequel with a world that’s super pretty but kind of like that really polished apple that turns out to be fake. “Not everything is as it seems,” as they say.
Oh, and get this—a PS Store blurb mentions Riven on PS5/4 keeping that old-school point-and-click feel, boasting like a zillion pics and hours of video. Crazy! But anyway—wait, where was I? Right, go check ’em out if you’re into time-traveling back to when graphics weren’t everything, but the vibes were off the charts.
