Dream Quest

No update in 7 years, runs like a charm. Still one of the best games available on iOS. No gambling influenced in-game economy with in-app purchases; just addictive and creative gameplay. Part card game, board game, dungeon crawl rpg, and puzzle game all in one. Unique and satisfying. (Yes, there is an in-game economy but you cannot spend real money.)

hey peter, i been waiting since before the pandemic for the update. and ill never stop waiting

If I remember correctly, this game either invented the roguelike deckbuilder genre or was one of the very first. I appreciate its place in history and can see why it was so revolutionary. It provided several hours of addictive fun. Unfortunately it suffers from two major flaws: it gets repetitive over time due to the limited number of cards, and there are too many “take that, you’re dead and there’s nothing you can do about it” moments.

This game is top tier! Tons of depth and replay ability. Worth every penny, a must buy if you like deck building RPGs.

The balance on the game is awful. The vast majority of games are unwinnable. If you’re lucky you might get cards to help you advance but you probably won’t.
