  • Perfection!!

    Works perfect on my Iphone6 Plus! I remembered this game on my friend's Super Famicom. Really happy I'm able to play this game even after 15+ years later! Put in around 20 hrs and so far it's been great! Autosave and Cloud Save are both great adds! With Cloud Save I'm able to switch between my iPad and iPhone seamlessly! This is how all FF and DragonQuests should port from now on!!

  • Great port, but iPad battle scenes partially obscured

    A gorgeous port of the Nintendo DS version. This is a classic, grind-heavy RPG with a great story and memorable characters. The battles have animated monsters, unlike some of the preceding Dragon Quest iOS ports. Be aware - if you play the game on an iPad instead of an iPhone, the battle window may cover most of the battle scene, partially obscuring the enemies. Aside from that, enjoy the beautiful graphics, music and stories! Cheers!

  • Dragon Quest’s Shining Moment

    Let me begin by saying that Dragon Warrior IV on NES was and still is my favorite video game of all time. This port is a modified version of the Nintendo DS remake, so it accessible and fun, but not quite as challenging as the original from 1992 (US.)

    I love this game, but putting nostalgia aside, it shines on mobile devices because the general turn-based JRPGs of the past translate well to touch screens. ENIX had the complex story figured out by the time they got to this 4th installment and it really shows, giving players a fun, but not too heavy adventure with multiple characters that are easy to fall in love with.

    Get this game.

  • The definitive version!

    I clearly remember this game on the NES and I always thought it was an amazing game for its content! I was so disappointed in the PSX port that wasn't, and I was stationed in Japan when this was made into a Nintendo DS game, which is what made me buy my first DS and this game even though I couldn't read Japanese anywhere near fluently. Then it was released stateside but conspicuously missing party chat!

    I was so heart broken, but past transgressions are forgiven with this release! Initially I was a bit thrown off by portrait mode but it's not nearly as off putting as I anticipated. Worth every dollar, and a must buy for role playing fans.

  • Dragon Quest IV

    Always loved this game and when I saw they had it up here I bought it immediately. So very happy. Just one bad thing. It got delete off my iPhone 5 and now when I go to re download it, it says that the item I'm trying to buy is no longer available. Can anyone help??? 😢
  • Honest Review

    I am a huge fan of the Dragon Quest series and have been for years. This was the first game I played as a kid and I still love it. The iOS port version is just as incredible as the ds version, plus all the added content. I feel that the chat option really immerses you in the game and gives you a better feel for the view if the characters. I believe the controls are very easy to get used to and that the combat and graphics are quite outstanding. The game was worth every penny.

  • Keep them coming!

    I am infatuated with the franchise and have been since playing Dragon Warrior NES when I was 5.

    Fans of the series and JRPG fans in general definitely need to pick this up. It plays wonderfully in portrait mode so I don't even miss landscape. This also plays a lot smoother than DQ8. (Which is still amazing)

    Dragon Quest games are not the easiest RPGs out there so prepare for a bit of grinding and open exploration. Make sure you speak to everyone, pay attention, and save often. But the added quick save feature makes the game just as playable in short bursts. Back in the day if you didn't have enough time to venture out and make it back to the church/king you might as well not even turned it on.

    Highly recommended.

  • Great title great port

    Game looks awesome on iPhone and I rather like the portrait only mode Bc you can play with one hand no problem. Wish the FF titles kept the graphics and not update those ugly new character models. This game keeps the graphics from ds and it looks great. The actual game is awesome and cool story. It's a perfect mobile title and hope they release the other DQ DS remakes!!!! Keep them coming!!

  • Great game; great controls

    Yes, I was hesitant about laying down 15 bucks on an iOS version of a classic RPG because of all the things I'd heard about the control scheme. Ultimately, I decided to buy it, and have NO regrets doing so. Portrait, one-handed control = awesome. I can eat a delicious grilled cheese sandwich and grind on DQIV at the same time. What else could you ask for?

  • Dragon Quest IV

    Let me start by saying that I was skeptical about buying a game $15 and that was made for the DS. But, it's the game that influenced me. Dragon Quest has amazing games and is a true gem franchise. DQ IV is one the best in my opinion. My favorite is VIII. A good reason to buy this game, this is the best and cheapest option to buy this game. I'm pretty sure if a lot of people buy these games (This and the iOS port of VIII) then we will be seeing more releases and hopefully localizations! This game is phenomenal and the controls you get used too in a few minutes. Enjoy one of THE BEST games of all time :)
