DRAGON QUEST V Reviews

One of the best in the series

Jesse_Dylan

This is the definitive version of the DQV remake, and DQV itself is one of the best in the series. The storyline was sprawling and revolutionary at the time (and still is!). Classic Dragon Quest gameplay, refined. The iOS version is like joining up the two DS screens and taking out the gap, and upgrading the resolution. It looks and sounds great on iPhone and iPad, and you can play it one-handed on your phone. It is uniquely suited to portrait mode due to being played that way on the DS (just on two separated screens instead of one joined screen). It's a little weird playing with touchscreen controls, but again, you can play one-handed!

Great game,awesome storyline and impressive characters

Best dragon quest game. I've played it nonstop for 3 days now. Works just fine on the iPhone. If you're reading and wondering if you should buy this game, just do it. Worth the money. It's a fun game to play on the bus ride somewhere. Very grindy so make sure you like that in your RPGs!

Great Game, Bad Port

Like many have said, this is a GREAT game. I bought it after it was so highly recommended on Touch Arcade. I also love it's portrait view, allowing it to be played one-handed. The biggest thing that this needs is to be able to listen to other audio sources. I'd love to be able to listen to podcasts while I play, but it always stops everything else, even when it's own music is turned off. It also needs quick saves, like so many others have said. This is surprising. I would love the buttons to be cleaned up on the main view. Many don't do anything and they're ugly.

More save points PLEASE

Oh my god. Are u kidding me with the saving only in churches? We need more save points in mobile games.

Autosave does not work in dungeons - otherwise PERFECT!

This is one of my favorite RPG franchises of all time. I've played them all on console and portable and keep coming back to this one because its storyline is superb. I give it five stars. My only gripe with this - and the others - is this... this version is for a mobile device - iPhone or iPad. There have been a few times where I was waiting in line someplace, pulled out the phone, and started playing... but I had to stop because whenever I entered a dungeon, I knew I couldn't save my progress. Autosave works great, EXCEPT not in dungeons! I don't understand how such a silly limitation could be placed on a version of the game ported to mobile devices... I've lost progress several times because I had to quit in the middle of a dungeon - only to watch the game reset upon executing it again... I hope this issue is addressed in the future, it is a limitation that really makes no sense whatsoever.

Lost Saves

Downloaded the game and loved it instantly. Actually I loved it so much that I played it for about 6 hours after I bought it. I'm not a big gamer so 6 hours spent playing a game is excessive to me. The problem is, after all the hours I spent playing, I just now realized that my game save is completely gone and now I have to f***king start over. I want to throw my phone so bad right now.
