I’m back.
I finished the second game today. Beautiful experience like the first game, yet more expansive. Felt more alive then DQ1 (to be expected). I wrote long last time so I’ll Make it quick. I can’t wait to start the 3rd game. Everyone talks about how good it is and it’s the 3rd game at that. I got it waiting for me tomorrow. I don’t want to jump right in. I need coffee something to eat and 2 hrs lol.
DQ3 here I come.

I never got to beat this game as a kid!
Now I can relive my childhood in classic RPG fashion, without an older brother taking the controller away.
Anyone who played this as a kid will be a bit sad that it’s much easier with the quick save and auto save feature... but it saves you hours of your life too! Especially for gaming on the go!
So glad they put this on iOS!!
Shops crash the game
Thanks for fixing the shopkeeper crashing bug.
Still, what happened to the unique musical score in Wellgarth/Burrowell? That delightful townswoman doesn't sing for you anymore, and it now sounds like every other boring town.
So good
This game is such a great evolution from the fist game. Now you get a boat and party and explore a bigger world with some great call backs to the first game where they both lead up to a great finale in Dragon Quest 3. Definitely worth a playthrough.
@squareenix please release Dragon Quest VII 7 to us in English markets on mobile.
Secret
If you are following the walkthrough that says go up the stairs in Beran and you’ll be in the outside world to Rendarack, but your in a room with an old man, then go DOWN not up to the stairs from the warp.
Good game, nice interface, beat Malroth at levels 40, 38, 35. Wish I had know prayer ring has limited number of uses before I sold 2 of them. Poof Dust
Great Game
Needs controller support along with landscape view for it. Also the virtual d-pad is in the center of the screen when playing on my iPhone XS Max.
Freezes
With update to iOS 14, the game freezes often on my iPhone 6S Plus.
Freezes last for 2-3 seconds, but they happen several times per minute, which really takes away from the enjoyment. Without the freezes, the game would easily get 5 stars from me.
Last update was 2 years ago. I wish SE would update this again to work well with the updated iOS.
Nicely done
The grind is a bit real on this one. The monster encounter rate definitely higher than I recall, plus you must grind levels on about three to four different occasions. After getting all the end game gear and leveling all three characters to 46 the last boss was easy.
Played on a iPad, controls were good since you can move by touching any part of the screen. Translation was a bit mediocre.
Overall a good experience. I guesstimate about 35 hours to complete the game.

Great Classic RPG, but....
This game is great if you're a 2D rpg fan. I only have one pet peeve about this game, which is the language the game is using or tried to use. I understand the game takes place in a setting of a medieval type of era, but could they at least have the text be in the modern English language? Seriously, I had to analyze each sentence to understand and look for clues of what to do.
3rd Times the charm…
I have tried three times (at least) since the late 80s to beat this game. The original NES one was a little too hard for me at 9. My second try was on a flash Cart and I there was a save issue so I gave up. Shame on me for not staggering the 3 save slots… ;)
I am so glad I saw this through on my iPad Pro. What a Great gaming experience. It was just about perfect related to the little fixes and QoL features.
This version challenges the idea that DQ2 was the black sheep of the series.
Cheers

No iCloud save
I own iPad & iPhone. Can’t move saves between them. Great game but can’t rank higher since they won’t support a basic function. Also landscape mode would be nice.
