Love game but hopelessly stuck
I really loved this game. Brings back all the memories of early Nintendo games like Final Fantasy and Dragon Warrior. Sadly I made it to Reapers Castle in Act 5 and find myself stuck and without a clue as what to do. I would love to finish the game but after finding no help online, my journey has come to an end. I still give the game 5 stars and hope in the future other gamers will share clues about going forward.Show lessDeveloper Response
Update: I'm glad we got to connect and I hope you enjoyed the final boss! Hi Budbeagle sorry for the delay here! I'm sorry you're stuck, I apologize for this and you aren't the first person - I wanted mimic those classic RPGs like you mentioned but understand that modern games have more quest management and it can lead to a bad experience. Are you unable to get into the castle? If so you need to get a piece of Ocean Jasper from the Monster Caves (there's a hole right where the Water Tribe Chief was when you were clearing the town). If instead you're stuck IN the castle there are 4 orbs you need to activate. If you want some more details please email me at support@littlebear.studio and more than happy to figure out exactly where you're stuck! I appreciate the review and congrats on getting to the end game!Can’t recommend this
This game would be good, but it has the most annoying movement mechanism of any mobile game I’ve played. Whether set to fixed or floating, the joystick is awkward and does not cooperate, distracting you from the game constantly. 2nd, the developer should not put dead ends with no reasonable resolution into the game. At the reaper castle, when I try to enter, the front door tells me “you may enter” but does not open. I have looked everywhere for secret openings, hidden clues, talked to npcs, etc. Cannot find any way to open the door, so I can’t continue the game. Waste of money. At least it was only a couple bucks.Show lessDeveloper Response
Update: Hello again, the latest version 1.1.2 has fixed the dialog bug you've discovered! Hi! Thanks so much for playing my game and taking time to review it. It looks like you've found a bug, I put the wrong dialog there and am pushing a build now to fix that. In the meantime you can still progress - go back to the Monster Caves south of the Water Tribe to find a piece of Ocean Jasper. Once you have that you can enter the castle. Congrats on almost finishing the game! As for the movement controls please reach out to me at support@littlebear.studio. I'd like to better understand what's not working for you, I used a standard movement joystick in most mobile games would like to know what you'd prefer.An homage to the rpg greats
Imagine that the year is 1995, your just got the new Earthbound rpg for your SNES, you open the box and you are overwhelmed by the crisp fresh smell of your new plastic cartridge. This game really takes you back to a time where you were excited to open a new game and see what it had in store for you. Magic and machines has buttery smooth controls where your hero glides aimlessly across terrain, like when you’ve just finished shoveling your tenth fistful of popcorn into your mouth and you attempt to continue to your next eppy on Netflix using your chrome cast remote but your fingers just slide across the buttons. The combat mechanics are fun and just the right amount of challenging. I highly recommend this game to anyone who is a fan of old school rpgs.Show less
