User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★☆My favorite mobile game but…
I adore the gurk series, but this one in particular will just randomly delete my data and I gotta start over. I’ll get to the end of the game sometimes and go back to play it and my data is gone.. it’s very depressing. I would absolutely give this 5 stars but this issue is too big to ignore.
★★★★★Great Fun
Scratches the RPG/gameboy nostalgia itch just right! Very fun
★★★★★Addicting
This game is deceptively strategic. You not only have to plan out your supplies and items to get to the end of the dungeon, you must also plan for your way back. It also makes a huge difference which tactics you use in battle, especially against bosses. I got so addicted I played past the end--all the way to the point where the developer begs you to stop because he's all out of ideas!
★★★☆☆Won’t save games
The game itself is wonderful, and very hard to stop playing. However, I am tired of having to start a new game, despite hitting “save game” each time I play. The game needs to be updated so that it won’t reset every time I kill the app.
★★★★☆Good Game, But not worth if I lose everything.
I love this game deeply with my soul and heart, and the Roleplaying gist is amazing and can entertain me for hours upon hours with continuous fun. The only issue is if I save and I clean my history, the game completely resets and I lose everything. That was a real tick off and I deleted the game, and I hope this review is seen by the developers as a cry of help, to fix the save system!
