It crashes out each time I try to enter the shop in the first town It looks Iike the crashing on 64 bit version has Been fixed and so I am provisionally raising my pen star to 4. The messy implementation of control on a touch pad device will continue to cost it a star until it is updated to something easier to use

Updated review: Ever since the latest update I haven't had a single crash on my iPad Pro. Thanks!

Love this, especially the original Bard's Tale Trilogy! But will it work with the new iOS 11? I'm particularly concerned with the Trilogy. I don't want to update to iOS 11 if it breaks these games.

Just started playing on my iPad Pro. Currently in Huton (the first village). I can enter buildings fine, but whenever I try to exit a building the game crashes. This happens with every building (except the inn, the tutorial worked perfectly)

Just downloaded this and it crashes constantly - I have a new iPad Pro 12.9. Unplayable do not buy.

Just like the original with better graphics, and the game play is real time, love it

I held off on purchasing Bard’s Tale initially because some of the graphics previews made me think it was just a port of an old Commodore 64 title, or some sort of satirical game, but it is actually an extremely impressive hi-res, 3D isometric RPG action/adventure, that ALSO includes the original BT trilogy. I don’t know what I was thinking...but in all fairness, I’d never heard of it or played it before. I guess you could say it is a little bit like DungeonSiege with a narrative, and lots of gags, humor and music woven in, but it really is its own creature. It is not an open world, and the quests so far have been pretty linear, but I’m not that far in (I don’t think), and remain hopeful that things may yet branch out a little bit. We’ll see. In any case, it is the best iOS game I have played bar none, and my current favorite. I think it is more fun than Baldur’s Gate, Planescape: Torment, and Titan Quest, all of which I found kind of boring, not to mention overly-complex, which didn’t really help me relax. No offense intended. I’ve simply had a lot of fun with Bard’s Tale so far, and find it quite entertaining. I suggest you buy it. Update: I’m playing the game on a 12.9” iPad Pro (256) running iOS 11.2.2, with no problems whatsoever.
