My only complaint is that there isn’t a full screen option. Other than that, it’s just as good if not better that Ghouls ‘n Ghosts. ### 4/5 — 2スクロール最高！ *2022-03-27* ふふふ村には似てるものの面白いんだから仕方ない！これは久々ハマった！是非490円課金すべし！ ### 4/5 — Retro challenge! *2021-08-25* Tough as nails and also fun. Feels like a twin brother of Ghost n’ Goblins, although it gives me DOS game vibes too, especially Monster Bash. The game is needlessly difficult IMO, but if you love a challenge here’s one for you! Would be 5/5 easily if it wasn’t so dang punishing. ### 5/5 — Excellent jeu! *2020-09-12* Des sensations d’antan, une jouabilité excellente au pad. C’est un jeu de passionnés, pour les passionnés! Il manque juste comme Super Hydorah un filtre « CRT » pour donne un aspect rétro. Chaudement recommandé ! **Developer response:** Thanks so much! ### 3/5 — 操作性に難あり *2020-05-24* 色々なハードに移植されただけあって、魔界村リスペクト作品としてかなり高い水準です。 ただやはり操作性、特に十字キーの小ささが誤操作を誘発します。十字キーの位置、大きさを変えられるかプレステのコントローラーのようにそれぞれのキーを分けられるようにすれば最高の作品なんですが… **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! We've adapted the game to touch devices as much as possible, and recommend using a controller (MFi, Xbox or PS4) if the touch controls don't feel comfortable. Which device are you playing on? ### 5/5 — Fantastic port of my favorite indie game! *2020-02-28* I was overjoyed when I found this in the App Store. I built a small arcade cabinet just for the original Maldita Castilla. This has made my day! **Developer response:** Aww, thanks so much for the support! Arcade cabinet sounds cool! Feel free to show it to us on social media! ;) ### 4/5 — Controls *2020-02-22* Please fix the controls on this game. It has a lot of potential👍 ### 5/5 — Um clássico *2020-01-12* Pra todos aqueles que querem reviver a época dos games da Capcom esse jogo é o ideal, controle, sons, e gráficos perfeitos, vale cada centavo investido. Essential ### 5/5 — Definitely a fun challenging game *2019-11-21* From the first time that I’ve played this game I was hit with absolute retro memories from ghost n’ game goblins and super ghost n’ ghoul with the awesome graphics, soundtrack and gameplay style from going to dead ridden city mysterious caves and the enchanted forest fighting through bosses and bosses to save the region from an evil sorcery. The border and control graphics looks like I was picking up a mini gameboy just awesome. This is an awesome development for you guys hope it does get some well known acknowledgement from other gamers in the community both retro and modern day gamers. ### 3/5 — 安心して遊べる出来だが操作性がやや難 *2019-11-10* 魔界村リスペクトだけあってシビアな操作を要求される場面もあるが、ボタンが小さいため入力ミスが多発する。ぜひボタンのサイズ変更を実装してほしい。 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible controls *2023-03-02* At least give us the option to have a joystick instead of this wonky directional pad. ### 1/5 — 操作性ゴミ *2022-07-17* 元がフリーウェアのソフトで追加要素込みでもひどい 入力がゴミすぎてしゃがみたいときにしゃがめず左右移動したい時に勝手にしゃがむ 操作性のせいで難易度が高いのは高難易度ではなく理不尽と言う ### 1/5 — Rip off *2022-04-04* Jump off ### 1/5 — つまらない *2021-09-17* つまらなすぎ。 ### 1/5 — Awful controls *2020-05-04* You need baby hands to play this game controls are too small and not adjustable even when full-size screen is activated. Without update it’s not playable at all. **Developer response:** We're sorry the experience hasn't been as expected :( Please try using a controller (MFi, Xbox or PS4), this usually helps bring back the enjoyment on smaller screens! ### 1/5 — 이동이불편해서 못해먹겠습니다 *2019-12-26* 예전에 대마계전비슷해보여서 다운받았는데 이동이불편해서 가다가 멈추고 앉지도않도 힘듭니다. 환불요청합니다. ### 2/5 — Schlechte Steuerung *2021-02-23* Spiel an sich scheint interessant zu sein aber die Steuerung ist ziemlich schlecht ### 2/5 — 操作性 *2020-08-12* ボタンをもっと大きくしてほしい **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! While the buttons might feel a bit small on smaller devices, using a controller is usually a good solution. Please let us know if that helps! ### 2/5 — Controls gahhh *2020-03-15* Unless you’re a five year old with baby hands, this game is impossible to play. The control button is horrible. Why did you make it so small??? **Developer response:** Thanks for the honest feedback! We adapted the classic controls for such games to mobile devices, but offer controller support for extra comfortable gaming. Please try playing with an MFi, Xbox or PS4 controller, this should help! ### 2/5 — Problems *2019-11-10* The controls on the iphone are aweful, really clunky. The game itself seems to be fun, but chose wisely and play it on another medium than the Iphone. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Schade! *2026-03-03* Leider kein Vollbild auf nicht einmal einem Telefon. Ansonsten ein schönes Spiel. ### 5/5 — Awesome arcade run-n-gun for Apple TV *2026-01-04* Love it on Apple TV...super arcade, controller run n gun. One of the many great games I discovered through AppRaven community. Excellent combat nuances, appropriate complexity, and replayability, lore, and difficulty. Just right. Love the Codexes that let you ‘discover’ more about this little Cursed world as you play through it. ### 5/5 — Awesome arcade run-n-gun for Apple TV *2026-01-04* Love it on Apple TV...super arcade, controller run n gun.

Da die Steuerung leider doch ein bisschen tricky ist, muss man recht bald auf einen externen Controller umsteigen (zum Glück wird das unterstützt!) ### 5/5 — 買ってよかった *2022-07-09* 難易度丁度よく最高に楽しいッス！満足です😄 ### 5/5 — I like it *2021-02-03* I love GaG, I was looking for a clone and I found this. The concept is GaG but it also different and fun. ### 5/5 — シンプルながらも良い作品 *2020-11-04* 魔界村のパクリと国内では批評を受けていますが、作品の自体はリスペクト作品だと強く感じます。魔界村と悪魔城ドラキュラを組み合わせたゲーム感と感じました。 現在、課金重視のゲームが横行している中でゲームとは？という疑問がありましたが個人的にはこのようなタイトルの作品を多く出してほしいと感じました。他の作品も幾つか購入しての感想です。 ゲームをするにはコントローラの使用を強くお勧めします。 タッチ操作でも遊ぶことは可能ですが攻略は難しくなります。これはこのゲームだけに言えることではないですが、コントローラーがあることで楽しみやすくなるでしょう。 本家のIOS版よりかは遊びやすくなっていると思います。 日本国内ではなかなかこのようなタイトルが発売されなくなってきてるので、開発者様には独自世界観のレトロゲームをこれからも多く作ってほしいとかんじました。 **Developer response:** Thanks a lot for the detailed review and interesting insights! :) We do have more retro masterpieces - check out Cursed Castilla and Super Hydorah, they've got the retro vibe but modern implementation! (Controllers and Apple TV support included!) ### 5/5 — Awesome game, Please add scanlines support! *2020-10-29* I really love the retro feel of this game, please add scanlines option to make it feel like the arcade! **Developer response:** Aww, thanks so much! Check out Super Hydorah - it does have the vibe you're looking for! :) ### 5/5 — 魔界村ですね *2020-10-10* bluetoothコントローラーに対応してます。コントローラー無いとシビアです。汗) **Developer response:** Thank you! Yes, the controller adds precision, and touch screen increases the challenge! :) ### 5/5 — With MFI controls, its perfect *2020-09-20* Ghouls n Ghosts is one of my favorite games of all time.....you know what? This is a lot better. **Developer response:** Aww! Glad you're enjoying Cursed Castilla so much!
