This is not a game for hardcore fans of classic turnstyle rpgs, epic storylines, know all secrets and completionists.
This is a game for those who have ALOT of time on their hands and who enjoy being confused when navigating through dungeons. Nail biting, hair pulling frustration and flat out mundane objectives -- this is for you.
Oh, how I can count the ways of where this game has gone wrong and why it deserves a one star.
Never should a game on a device like an iPhone or an iPad that the would be review be judged thoroughly of its graphics.
For a somewhat simple interface and cheesy sprites, re-overused animation/monster details,same background battle maps, nearly identical tower maps as far as Ill go there.
Im rather a perfectionist/completist when it comes to any Roleplaying game, warranted that the content exists.
And its what a little disappointing about this game. As there are no merits for collecting every treasure box or hoarding sellable material or essentially farming monsters for loot drops as they are nearly non-existent.
Or even checking cabinets, flower pots ... Any object that you think is lootable, isnt unless directed so by quests.
The controls are good, selecting commands little wonky or due to the small screen.. Really tough to pick middle choices. No D-pad game should ever be boorish. (rule)
As mentioned in other reviews, lack of dungeon map creates alot of backtracking. Even the layout of each tower, different colors, same wall structure. The never ending battle grind.
Theres only 4 characters you need. Ironically, a character perceived as a dangerous person, is in fact weak and laughable to utilize. No real surprises to be found.
The touch of unique characteristic of spell combinations is losy with allowing party members to learn other elements. Balance? Smalance!
No sense of discovery, very linear story arc.
Guess one great thing about this game other then it feels like a collosal waste of time is that Ive yet to experience any freeze or crashes.
If this game was once valued at $6.99, what a huge scam unto those who bought it at that point.
