Its good but it needs a joystick control because the directional controls are horrible

Just like it was when I was a kid. Just needs better controls

This is a model game! I disagree that it would be better with "Joystick" control. I do wish we could have multiplayer also. Wish it had the DarkStone video but with these Characters This game is just like the PC version. Graphics Rock! Wish there were many games with this exact interaction system and graphics. I like that you don't spend all your time fighting in only dungeons. Dragon force (Amiga), Rising Sun, Shogun /Samurai games. Gunfighter/western (horses) ETC. Space theme.

bought this before diablo

some character

i wish i had known this was available. wish it had the display like the original. you should be able to have the henchman respond with a spell automatically like the original.

A good game, but nostalgia will need to overcome functionality to get you very far.

This game was something I hunted for for a long time. When I saw it was free on iOS I jumped at the chance to play it. All in all, I think you should too. However, there are a lot of things that need to be fixed or addressed in this game. The BEST Feature of this update is the potion sharing across party members. Oh man this has been the thing that has allowed me to get as far as I have. This is awesome. Now, any way we can get a quick antidote button? Saving: The game forces you to save OVER your most recent save, prohibiting you from going back to a place before you died. So this means if something came to your attention and you took you eye off the screen for a second, not only are you subjected to a 30 minute wait time before you can play again ( on the free version) but you have to trek back to pick up your stuff in whatever dungeon you were in when you died. At least make me have a wait time then restart from my last save, c’mon guys. Mapping: There should really be some indication on the map where my magic door is. Also, Why is there no “towards Town” option in the first section??? Repairing: Let me repair-all or at least be able to repair things I am wearing without having to put them in my inventory first. This is just a quality of life upgrade. You guys made so many other enhancements I feel like this was a no-brainer that you missed. Spell casting on the off-player: This is probably my biggest pet peeve of the entire game. If you have a wizard character you should pretty much expect to play them the whole time, otherwise they will cast no spells. In the original game you were able to set their spells to auto-cast and give them a set amount of mana to not go below. However in this mobile version the wizard AI is basically non existent and he wants to whack everyone with his staff or club or whatever weapon he has equipped. This is really not helpful when one of the unique parts about this game is the ability to control a party rather than just one PC. Scrolls in slot: Make them stack, there is already a number telling me how many I have of that particular scroll. Make my life easier and just let me cast them from there until they disappear. Bug: unable to complete initiation as it wouldn’t allow talking to last person. Once I died and came back this magically worked. Before this Bill was completely unclickable. Bug: Many of the “windows” in the dungeons don’t render properly so it looks like there are two open doorways on either side of an actual door but you are not allowed through until you open the door. I’m assuming some bars should be over these slots and are just not rendering. Bug: Master’s sword? I’m being told by the game that this or that other sword will give me an upgrade, indicated by the green arrow atop the item, however when I equip it I am greeted with far far less damage. this isn’t a function of anything to do with defense or % resist, it is purely an alleged damage upgrade that does not reflect on paper once I equip the item. Either my Master’s sword is bugged or it has hidden properties that I’m not being told about.
