Leave a Review Marathon 2
Great port, thank you for gyro support!
Last time I visited these I remember wishing there were a way to use gyro since swiping gets a bit old with boomer hands. But thank you!BoxesUnstacked
Great classic game, but a fatal bug…
I enjoy playing this old game from my childhood, glad it’s been adapted to the iPad. Relearning the controls for touch screen is fun, like relearning how to play the game in a way.
I noticed the in several levels, when stepping on a certain square, the gun graphic is replaced by a large black square that bounces as you walk. It makes it impossible to see and game unplayable, especially when 2x guns are activated. The only way to get around it is to anticipate the polygon and switch to a non-essential weapon before you get there. Very annoying. Would be great to fix, and i can give details and screenshots if needed. The black graphic disappears when level is completed…
It would be great to see Forge for the iPad, haha, i know that might be too much too ask. I loved creating and games when i was a kid, and that creative aspect from games has been lost long ago unfortunately. Also, making Marathon playable modern multiplayer would be revolutionary, it was maybe the first FPS to have that option i believe.
Other than the bug, it is great as it is at the momentShow lessBobby_MoJ
Developer Response
There was an issue similar to this that was resolved in v5.12. Please give it a try, and report back. If you still have trouble, send a screenshot and details over to support@marathon-ios.com so we can work on a fix!Can’t access the transporter screen once level 1 is completed. It worked once but then not since

Doors won’t open.
I’m using a PS5 controller. I can do everything except open doors.Samizdat5150
Great classic gaming
This was one of my first shooters on PC, and I loved it. Coming back to it so many years later is fantastic. It really holds up and offers the same simple, great shooter experience I miss in many newer games. Guns and movement with no special moves or finishers, or anything else.
Playing with the controller makes aiming a bit more challenging, but playing on normal offers a great challenge while not being overly frustrating. I have a mouse and keyboard for the iPad, but there does not appear to be any support for it, which is a bit of a shame, but not a big deal.Show lessSlobbathehut
Almost perfect
This is a high-quality build of the classic game from the 90s which was a quantum leap forward for the FPS at the time.
Put a few hours into it and enjoying some nostalgia,
My only complaint is that I had so much trouble finding out how to invert the y-axis using a Bluetooth controller. I did do it (or else this wouldn’t be a 5 star review) but it took way too long to figure it out.Show lessBmalSuj

Classic gaming goodness
Never played any Marathon, always knew of the nostalgic connections with halo and Bungie. Just spent some time with it, and it deserves its reputation. Right up there with Doom (even more so). With controller support this is a classic game that will never leave me iPad. PS: new players make sure to tone down the joystick speeds!! It’s way to high at default settings.Show lessFRYDADDY15
Great port
I love the power up refill option in the pause menu.
If it had an option for weapon selection, & shield amount it would be even better.Jerky Pal
