Sorry for hijacking this review section, but I was hoping I could get the devs’ attention on this. As for this game, it’s amazing, really. A bit unplayable on my phone but plays really well on iPad. Unforgettable storyline, gameplay, dialogue, etc.
Slow start

I know I can’t be too far into the game, but it doesn’t seem to have the same tempo of the rest of the bg series.
iPad only unfortunately

I have a XS Max and still the text and buttons/controls are tiny. It often takes several tries to hit the right button or dialog text. Not only are all the controls tiny, but there are a ton of them all next to each other so it is all too easy to hit the wrong one. Maybe add a pinch and zoom everywhere not just on the view area?
Amazing game, good port
The Johnless One
There’s nothing quite like the Planescape setting for Dungeons and Dragons, and this late-90s masterpiece makes it shine like never before ... or since, actually. It’s delightfully weird, sometimes incredibly dark, sometimes incredibly self-aware and funny, and always a fascinating experience. The voice acting and music are particularly good. It’s an incredibly game back when it came out, and this edition holds up. But for iOS: I played it through on my iPhone X with some difficulty. My eyes strained more than a bit ... high brightness will help a little. My fingers are too big to reliably select items and view their descriptions (you hold down and release), so it took me anywhere from 1-10 tries. Similarly, selecting the right NPCs to talk to/attack is a peril-fraught endeavor. I’m pretty patient about things like that, but I realize many are not, so if that’s something that will bother you, beware. This game (and presumably the rest of the incomparable Infinity collection) is best played on an iPad. In sum: This game on iPhone is great for Dungeons and Dragons/tabletop RPG aficionados, as well as fans of the bizarre and fantastical, provided they are exceedingly patient with the limitations of the small screen. Screens smaller than the X may be drastically worse. This game on iPhone is not ideal for people whose eyes tire easily, for whom tight, easy controls are deal-breakers, or those who aren’t much into the storytelling style of D&D/Infinity Engine games. It’s not a fast-paced Diablo-style RPG however much it looks like it; it’s much more in the Baldur’s Gate / Fallout 1 style.
Best game of all time

Tied with Super Smash bros melee. This is a 90s game so don’t play it on an iPhone — you need a big screen, ipad only.
Absolute waste of money

Cannot even tap anything correctly because everything is too small. The developers clearly never had to play on an iPhone. I’m on an iPhone X and it’s impossible.
LOVE This Game...

... and I am NOT a gamer. Totally got me hooked on rpg’s and I’ve purchased and played every game in the Infinity Collection. Now I’m patiently waiting for a new release or a re-release of any similar game on iOS or Google Play by this developer.
Menu is waaaaaaayyyy too small
disappointedwest
Can’t press the right buttons most of the time cause the menu is too small. Needs to be at the very least 4 times bigger(seriously). I just can’t play it. It also seems unresponsive to what I’m trying to do but maybe my fingers are just too big for the freakishly small buttons.
