Playing Myst on Android phones

Found this thread that shows how to play the original Myst game (as well as many others) using the ScummVM app. I just tried it on my Galaxy S4 and it works well. The ScummVM app is a little clunky in the UI department, but once the game starts it's just like playing it 20 years ago. I took a screenshot from the game while playing. I still have the original CD from when I first bought it in 1996.

Added on edit: I should have posted this under the Android Games forum; didn't know there were two separate "gaming" forums.[/URL]

And how do you do that ? Never used ScummVM before...

With ScummVM, you put the game you wish to play in a folder, start the ScummVM app, browse to the folder where your game is, tell it to load and hit start. For Myst you'll have to follow the instructions that were linked to in the OP, which is about ripping your original Myst CD and what files you need from it. I don't have a Myst CD so can't try for myself, but I know the current ScummVM for Android plays Beneath A Steel Sky and Flight Of The Amazon Queen no problem.
