Update for controllers?
I love that this exists! I tried running it with a PlayStation 5 controller, and it does work, but the interface for switching the buttons shows up as blank, and I absolutely cannot function without an inverted Y axis for looking around. (The joysticks are also extremely sensitive.) Any chance of an update to support configuring PlayStation controllers?

Good, but FYI
This is a solid port and I’m always playing this on long trips, but there is an untextured ceiling right next to the last portal of the final level. It didn’t harm my experience but it’ll look nicer with a texture.
slow performance
I update and now choppy performance. Was perfect before. YES, even on classic mode. Not happy.
Outstanding!!!
The lasted version is unbelievable. High quality graphics with HDR, spatial head tracking sounds and now, a soundtrack. I am so proud to see how this game has been shown love over the years since it was originally released in 1995. I still have my original copy that I played on an Apple Performa 630. Back then I had to play with really low quality graphics to run fast. I never thought I’d get a chance to play with high graphics, especially at what it has today.

Amazing! Get a gamepad
I have not played these 3 games in nearly 30 years. Get a $20 game pad on Amazon. The experience is better than the original.
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!
Literally one of my favourite games
Peak 90s gaming
Great to be able to play on iPad
Brings back memories and still good fun. I just wish we had ability to play with keyboard but it’s still great as it is 😎
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 moment

Good game
Normally I don’t care much for praising old shooters just for being good for their time. That said, Durandal actually holds up. It’s probably one of the best single player shooters still remaining on the AppStore, and the level design is actually good unlike the original Marathon.
7/7, can’t wait for the sequel that will surely have a comprehensible story.

Glad it’s back
Great to have it back in the store.
Can’t access the transporter screen once level 1 is completed. It worked once but then not since
It worked once but then not since. Using iOS 16.2 . I have 13 pro max. I’ve deleted and redownloaded, restarted, no fix
Doors won’t open.
I’m using a PS5 controller. I can do everything except open doors.
Amazing on iPad but xbox controller not working under water
Thank you so much for making this available on iPad, The only issue is that the controller does not correctly work under water
Needs controller support

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.

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.

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.
