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!

Pretty Dang Good

Game works really well! It’s a very enjoyable game with the simplistic graphic but complex strategy that I like about old school rpg’s. It’s really really difficult at times and doesn’t hold your hand much at all. It’s a nice change of pace from modern games and is a very enjoyable experience.

Solid

Great game! Combat is simple, maps are straight forward and mechanics are in depth enough to keep you entertained. If you want a fun, no ads and no pay to win classic turn-based RPG, start here! Edit: the last-last-last boss is a real treat.

GUYS READ THIS ABOUT SAVE FILES

This is the most nostalgic take you back to 1980's 8 bit rpg. The music for every part of the game is absolutely unbelievable. Edit: Guys I reached out to the devs and he told me this. The reason the save files are being deleted randomly has to due with your storage space. The lower the memory the higher the chance it will delete your save to clear room. They said it's a framework problem. Just glad to figure it out so I asked about how much room to keep and will post back. Edit: Never got an

The best game I’ve ever played on my iPhone.

I’ve been playing games on my iPhone for over 10 years, and this game is my favorite. I wish there were a sequel.

Perfect retro RPG

Simple, engaging game-play in a very large world. Pretty much perfect little retro RPG! Love how the different characters you can chose have different abilities do you can replay the game & it will be a bit different (I’m in my 2nd time)

Save Game No Longer Works

The developer has stopped supporting the product. Games are no longer able to be saved. A shame, because it is otherwise an enjoyable take on old school RPG’s.

Broken save system

I love this game, but there is a bug that deletes your saved game if your device runs low on memory, or something similar. I really wish this bug would be fixed because the game is great, but playing an RPG where your progress can be lost at any point is senseless

Great game, but can’t save

Great game I’ve had it for years and periodically decide to boot it up and 100% play through every few months. Last couple of times I’ve played it won’t keep a save. After saving it and closing the app, I’ll find that upon reopening it there is no option to continue. 5 stars if this is fixed.
