Praise from an OG gamer
I stumbled across this app when I typed in retro rpg’s. I saw comparisons to Zelda but I’ve been fooled by that before. But this game doesn’t disappoint. It’s a nice long game with so much to do. It comes as close to Zelda as any game I’ve found. The only con I can find with this game is that eventually I will reach the end. But good news- it has lots of replay value. Thanks for making such a truly wonderful game.Show lessCould have really been great
A lot of the difficulties in this game don’t make it more fun - it just makes it unnecessarily frustrating.
Here’s 6 key points that would drastically make this (or the next) game better.
#1 - MAKE THE PORTALS ACTIVE INSTANTLY. Theres no enjoyment in finally being able to unlock a portal that you should’ve had access to ages ago. Not having these portals just makes for tons more unnecessary traveling.
#2 - NO MAGIC METER. Since magic is your ONLY weapon - you shouldn’t run out. It happens way too often and then you have to find more or wait for it to slowly refill. This just adds another layer of unnecessary frustration. (At least make the wind spell infinite)
#3 - COLLECTING AURAS IS IMPOSSIBLE. Collecting the aura of any enemy above a D grade is impossible on mobile. Now I wish I would’ve never started the museum side quest. Just make collecting auras instant when you find one - just finding the auras would be satisfying alone.
#4 - COMMON ENEMIES ARE TOO STRONG. The
birds and those freaking blue spiders are just unnecessarily annoying for no reason.
#5 - WARP US TO THE DUNGEON ENTRANCE AFTER BEATING THE BOSS. Having to walk back through the dungeon after beating the boss is so inconvenient and anticlimactic.
#6 - I DON’T CARE ABOUT THE STORY. It’s hard to care about the main character’s sick if we know NOTHING about him. How sick is he? What’s is his personality like? What is his relationship with the main character? Don’t know. Thus, we don’t care.
I just finished the cave of pain and I honed don’t know if I’m going to keep playing. It just hasn’t gotten any better. Everything just feels like such a drag to get through. And it’s just not rewarding enough for me to want to keep playing.
Improve on these mistakes and the next game could be really amazing.
And maybe come up with a slightly better name for the next one :)
Good luck 👍🏻Show lessPimp
Retro rpg fans will love.
Imagine The Legend of Zelda with Earthbound like abilities.
