Takes me back!
Absolutely thrilled to find this old 1980s brought back to life - it’s absolutely perfect and still just as much fun. Amazing to think how far ahead of its time the original was. Massive thanks to the developer for the personal time investment to succeed with this project - I can’t thank you enough. Highly recommended to those not familiar with the original too.

Don’t make ‘em like they used to
A gorgeous looking game, on my iPhone and especially on my 16” MacBook Pro. Deceptively simple, but very challenging. Fires the imagination like a good game should. UI is smooth, easy to use. The whole package is a fun, smart, aesthetically pleasing experience. Nicely done.
I can’t move the characters
I can turn left and right and sometimes it will also move forward but the interface is not working. Such a shame as I love this game been playing it for 38 years
You can’t move
All you can do is look around. There’s no instructions on how to move, and no onscreen keys or buttons to do so. You are basically stuck rooted to the spot.
A shame as I enjoyed playing this game on my Spectrum in the 1980s.

Response from developer
I’m sorry that you didn’t like the game. The instructions are in the manual (guide) like the original. I purposely kept it that way for retro authenticity. You can access the guide and the novel from the main menu screen.
Great game, great re-make
Ahhh the memories on the ZX. This was something new!! Fantastic.
Great to see this back
Thank you very much for bringing this back, I loved this first time around and spent many hours of a misspent youth playing it, now I can while away some hours playing it on my phone - absolute class

Response from developer
Apologies for any problems you are having with the game. Please contact support to let me know the exact issue. I am currently trying to resolve issues caused by the move to the latest tech.
Amazing Game for iOS
Ignore the old reviews that claim this game has issues on certain iPhones; it’s been updated and works flawlessly (using an iPhone 12 Pro) using the entire screen.
This is a well done tribute the the Original creator and is great for a nostalgia trip. If you’re not into classic games or text-heavy interfaces, then this won’t be for you. For everyone else, expect some rich storytelling.

Recently updated my phone and now I can’t play
I recently got an X series iPhone come to find that I can no longer play this amazing game anymore. Please update so I can once again enjoy this fantastic product.
Response from developer
New version released which should now work. May have minor teething issues from the rewrite but hopefully all good.
Roam Midnight, form allegiances, quest, do battle...
A classic game in 1984, added to and entirely relevant to anyone who has never experienced the Land of Midnight before. This beautifully presented game sees you looking out from the eyes of the commanders and characters as you mass your armies and deploy your quest and immerse yourself in the titanic struggle against a ruthless, singleminded adversary, Doomdark.
Strategy and tactics are needed to endure the nail-biting episodes of war and subterfuge as you wander a believable land and back story. Chris has done a brilliant job in recreating the atmosphere and feel of the original and included a few features to smooth gameplay.
Once you enter midnight and look through Luxor's eyes, you will never look back and never be the same again.
