Good ol fashioned fun

I’m having way too much fun here. Love it!

Great game. Hilarious and many ours entertainment

For a person that truly loves the RPG experience. The game is loaded with content and has enough side quests to keep you entertained for many hours. Speaking of entertaining, the dialogue in the games is so funny and Cary Elwes does an excellent job as the voice of the bard. This game is a must buy and is the only game I’ve ever paid for (well worth it)!

Excellent game

Make another, just like it!

One of the funniest and best RPG‘s

The bards tale is easily one of the funniest RPG’s ever sometimes it can be really challenging, but it can also be very easy. It’s a very fun game. I wish you could customize your character though, and you could and you could customize your name but other than that, it’s a really good game and I find it very sad that not a lot of people know about it. I give it a five stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wonderful

How I’ve never heard of this game until now? I came across TBT looking for a legit mobile rpg and was pleasantly surprised to find this port. The writing, voice acting and music are top notch, and I’m loving the atmosphere. Also, thank you for including controller support! More games need to do this. I’m still early into the game, but I’m already hooked. Wonderful job, inXile!

Needs more save spots!

Fun and funny but only has one save spot so you can easily miss key matters and cannot go back to redo so that’s really frustrating!

Good old school RPG fun!

One of the funniest ARPG there is. They should create more ARPG’s like this.

A little clunky at first

Once you figure it out the game is really pretty good. I keep collecting diaries and I still don’t know if they do anything but for a fun dungeon crawler it’s great.

Great Game

I played this back in the 90s. I loved it then and more now.

need chinese

nice game but no chinese

Definitely worth more than $6

The storyline is great, the sing alongs are are so funny, just and overall enjoyable game to play. I’ve had the game for over two years and I’m playing for the forth time and still have fun playing and discovering things I have missed previously.

Excellent Game.

Love this game. It’s a streamlined RPG. You won’t really have to deal with selling a bunch of loot or min/maxing your character. The gameplay is pretty straight forward. The graphics are pretty decent, except for the cutscenes. As far as I know, all of the bugs that are mentioned in other reviews have been fixed. I haven’t had any issues with the game. I definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a simple fun adventure rpg.

This is awesome

I used to play this game a lot but then I kinda forgot about but then I saw it in the App Store and i just had to buy it. The game still keeps it charms and it makes this game like a Time Capsule

Good But wrong translation

It's good, but there are many errors in translating into Korean. or There is a problem with the font used, so the screen shows the wrong translation. Fix bug Plz

Do not purchase in game items

Fun game, but I recommend not buying any of the in game items, once you buy them and complete the game you will lose them and wont carry onto a new save game

Original Games don’t seem to work

I purchased this game for nostalgia purposes to play the original I played as a kid. The Bard’s Tale 3 appears to get stuck once I put the character disk in and it asks me if I want to continue with my saved game. I have chosen both yes and no, and nothing happens. Maybe, I am doing something wrong. Can anybody help? I would hate to request my money back, but I could use help with this.

Don’t waste your time

I hate this game; even on easy mode it’s hard. I play to relax and enjoy. I don’t care about challenges. It’s very difficult to save the game and mobs will often times block you from doing anything. Spells take forever to cast. And you have to use the spells to summon guardians or buffs/heal very frequently. It’s very very annoying and frustrating. The movement button is very buggy and you stop very frequently and will die quite often.
