Description
Prepare to enter a world "torn asunder" by timeless, unresolved conflicts – a world of incomparable beauty, intrigue, and betrayal. Prepare to go to Riven. Journey through vast, awe-inspiring landscapes, where clouds sit nestled in a deep blue sky and the rolling sea waters shimmer from bright morning sunlight. But be forewarned: nothing is quite as it seems.

Reclusive beings and mysterious creatures populate the land. Deep, dark secrets lay hidden at every turn. Your utmost powers of observation and reason are required to complete a most elusive task. You must let Riven become your world. Only then may the truth be discovered and a world saved. Riven stands as a story for all time, a story that evokes a sense of awe, wonder, and profound purpose. Prepare to go to Riven – a world unlike any you've ever known.

GOG Preservation Program
We make games live forever! Since 2008 we enhance good old games ourselves, to guarantee convenience and compatibility with modern systems. Even if the original developers of the game do not support it anymore.
  1. This game will work on current and future most popular Windows PC configurations. DRM-free.
  2. This is the best version of this game you can buy on any PC platform.
  3. We are the only platform to provide tech support for the games we sell. If some issues with the game appear, our Tech Support will help you solve them.
What improvements we made to this game:
Update (13 November 2024)
  • Validated stability
  • Verified compatibility with Windows 10 and 11
  • Verified Cloud Saves support
Internal Update (19 April 2022)
  • [WIN] Removed Launcher_Riven.exe from the build due to various false positive AV triggers
SVM update3 (30 July 2018)
  • Fix for missing page in Gehn's journal in the localized versions
  • Fix for crash when using the D'ni numbering system game in Jungle island in the localized versions
  • Fix for missing credits after the ending video in the Polish version
  • Enabled bilinear filtering by default. This results in pixels being less visible at the cost of the loss of some detail. Users seem to prefer to have it enabled. Advanced users can use the Ctrl-Alt-F shortcut to enable / disable it at will
  • Fix for an escape key spamming issue
  • Fix for where Polish is showing a white screen before the credits play
  • Fix for where Spanish is hitting a crash on the first bad ending
Internal Update (2 July 2018)

  • [WIN] Language can now be chosen during install (offline setup) or via Galaxy. Language setup was not removed, allowing offline users to change game language without reinstalling
  • [WIN] Changing language will now apply to ScummVM GUI as well
  • [WIN] Filtering has been disabled in default configuration
Internal Update (6 June 2018)
  • [WIN] Tweaked default ScummVM configuration
