Great game
Only on Chapter 2 so far and enjoying it lots. Nice leveling mechanics, well-made interface, charming characters, and finding the right strategies to pull off combat with different enemies is satisfying. Love it so far!
Great Game, Cloud Saves Don’t Work
Square Enix wants to charge a premium price yet will only provide trash mobile support. The game’s cloud save function no longer works, so you’re stuck playing the game on the device you started on.
Apple has expanded controller support, yet Square Enix Dragon Quest games do not support them. Not only that, but these games can only be played in portrait view. Making it awkward playing these games on larger phones or tablets, or even with your device connected to a tv.
So Squeenix, either sto
A must play!
Dragon Quest 4 is very suitable for newcomers to the series. The difficulty is quite tame in comparison to the other DQ games. The game length is perfect with an average of 30 to 40 hours of gameplay. RPG players will not be disappointed with this one!
Great game, but this version lessens it
This is the only version of the game with party chat available in non-Japanese languages, but it doesn’t have controller support and relies on on-screen controls without a landscape mode option.
The graphics feel like an odd mix of different fidelities that are a bit jarring to me, but otherwise it’s tolerable.
Drag anywhere on screen to move
Need to add the feature of drag anywhere on screen to move.
Update to restore drag anywhere on screen to move!
It is critical that SE updates this game to include drag anywhere on screen to move. All of the mobile DQ games (except 8) have it. Even the original DS version had it. Those mobile ports kept it but it’s missing from this one. It’s a huge quality of life feature that seriously hinders my enjoyment of the game. Especially after playing the other mobile DQ games that include it.
Love it
This game is waaaay too convenient when it comes to long trips or free times, especially since you don’t need an internet connection to play
Controller support
Please add controller support.

I don’t care about your music or SFX
Stop forcing me to listen to your stupid in game music and sfx. There is zero purpose for you to force my other audio apps to shutdown when I open this app. I played DQ1-3 for hundreds of hours listening to audible and loved it. But now I CHOOSE to not to open DQ4 simply because my audiobook stops the moment I open DQ4. Please fix this.
Marred by technical problems and interface issues.
My understanding is that the game itself is quite good. Sadly, it is hidden behind an imprecise and uncomfortable interface (seriously, iPad players prepare for thumb discomfort) with no controller support, and a cloud sync feature that never actually works. No escape to the iPhone version for these poor despairing thumbs.
Awful translation
I originally played this on the NES. This is much worse. To add dialect and accent, they translated the Japanese to a language (such as Russian) and then translated THAT to English. So there are several idiosyncrasies that just fail, to the point of distracting from the charm of the game. I essentially bought this for Taloon’s chapter, but it just didn’t scratch that nostalgia itch due to the awful translation.
