Baldur's Gate Reviews

You know what it is

It’s baldurs gate. Sticky control , bad AI, just like you remember it!

My husband and I played Baldur’s Gate on our original X-Box, and loved the game. When I saw it was available on the iPad, I had to give it a try. The gameplay is absolutely terrible on the iPad. I got stuck in the tutorial, with little guidance on what to do. Moving around isn’t easy, nor is using a spell or attacking someone. The touch screen just doesn’t work well. If you don’t touch in exactly the right place, you can’t do anything. And the graphics make it very hard to know what spells you have available, as they are not described without a hard press and hold, and the images are hard to see. (I have a 9.7” screen, too.)

Its Baldurs Gate

Its an amazing game that translates well to ipad. Brings back a lot of memories. Even though I still have the foldout CD holder and the PC to play it on, its just better on the ipad. BOOOOO to anyone giving a 1 or 2 star rating... BOOOOO

5 stars forever

I’ll never know why this game is rated as low as it is it’s probably the best game on mobile for the fact the phone doesn’t play it for you and you actually have to put physical input and thinking into what you are doing and know how to make a character properly the first couple of runs if you don’t know D&D basics very well will probably be trial and error and the game might be hard but I feel that’s what makes it fun that being said there is a new feature where the mage class auto targets and cast his spells by himself I don’t like it absolutely hate it tryed to turn it off and can’t stop making my games play by themselves please I bought this one specifically because it didn’t then it got changed

Didn’t play the pc version

Looking for a good iphone DND game, I gave this a try. I am still giving this a try, but it is a hard slog. I probably have to change my combat tactics, but for the novice this game appears to highlight all of the worst parts of actual role playing games (yay! Let’s walk across a giant map for 5 minutes! Let’s click though countless menus trying to organize our inventory! Let’s struggle to walk through doorways! Let’s accidentally cast the wrong spell because one rock icon looks just like any other rock icon!). Meanwhile, the part of DND that most folks find enjoyable, combat, happens in a muddled flash. I have tried modifying the scripts, but the characters have yet to behave sensibly. So, we spend 15 minutes traversing a forest landscape, then 15 seconds getting killed during a random encounter. I’m sure I am missing something, but it has not been super enjoyable trying to figure this game out.

So I do enjoy this game and have played it on and off, I have purchased ALL dlc to all the games and when I re downloaded the first game it’s letting me I have to purchase the content again. But on the App Store it says purchased? Is there a way to actually get the dlc back without buying it again?

As I was going through durlags tower. First time play through, first exposure to the DnD world. The game was a real treat. Looking forward to playing the others!

10/10

A little learning was essential but it was easy as reading the instructions given by the tutorial and in game chats. It was easy to pick up and if you like fantasy rpg games like final fantasy.

Best RPG game

Great storyline. New classes and races. I remember the PC version with 6 CDs. Now I have the power to play and go #2 at the same time. P. S. So funny to read these bad reviews about “wasting $10”. Lol ppl spend $6 on a cup of coffee that you piss out in 5 minutes but a classic RPG with 60+ hrs of fun is a waste cause you refuse to play on an iPad.

Absolute RipOff

The game functionality will remain a mystery to me. I fell for the notes saying that it “been modified to work as an app”. Well it might; if you’re using a tablet. But it’s impossible to see anything on a phone screen. I have good eyesight and small, nimble fingers, and I’ve found the game impossible to navigate. Basically, I just had $10 stolen from me. Save your money, and your sanity. Update: Received a reply to my critique, saying that the game was optimized for a tablet. Ok, true. I’ll give them 2 stars back. However, how hard would it have been to simply make the menu buttons larger and the text boxes pop up with a more reasonably legible display? The lack of effort to modernize the game is disappointing.
