At 123MB, the demo's download is substantial. But that's nothing compared to the full game's 700MB footprint ... and it still beats having to hook up a CD-ROM drive to your iPhone.
iTunes - Download Myst FREE at the iTunes App Store

my 1st non text-only game was Myst on my mom's work Mac. I was so jealous my buddy had a PC and could play Doom whenever he wanted.
But I got Marathon and it was on from there =)

If it's anything like the pc game then you can beat the entire game with this demo.. you don't need to go to the ages.. :)

Technically, you need to travel to one age (D'ni) to beat the game.

I wonder if you could use this as a backdoor to make other Hypercard programs work on the iPhone...

Probably not. You still need to travel to one age (D'ni) to beat the game. You can get pretty close though.

Of course they don't allow upgradeable demos because that would mean they couldn't inflate their numbers when talking about how many free games the iphone has.
It's kinda sickening really when you think about the poor people who don't do research like most of my family members.

Remember when Myst's graphics were way beyond anything games could dream of doing real-time? It would be so hard to do that now.

For everyone who has pointed out that you can win without going anywhere but D'ni, I can confirm that in the demo you get a dialog box that stops you from accessing the "Secret Fireplace" if you correctly type in the code on the metal plate.
