VISIT A MYSTERIOUS WORLD


“I am Gehn. I assume you’ve heard of me.”

UNRAVEL RIVEN’S SECRETS


“...it may be time to give this inexplicable mystery a second look.”

Who are the mysterious island dwellers you encounter during your exploration? What purpose does the giant golden dome serve? Why is this world on the verge of collapse? Play Riven and discover the answers to these mysteries- and more.
