### 4/5 — One of my favorite niche genres.

*2020-09-13*

I’m not far into this one yet but this genre is one of my favorites. The old magic tower, or whatever it was called. I’ve loved basically every game about balancing your stats vs the monsters in a maze puzzle thing. 

The graphics are not quite right on my iPhone 11. Parr’s of the screen are covered by other pages that shouldn’t be visible, and some parts seem to be going off the screen that shouldn’t. 

Would prefer to pay for features like save points than more stats. Buying stats feels like it would ruin the game, while a save point would just save me from the mind numbing restart everything on a minor mistake. Maybe save points exist and I’m just not far enough in. But wanted to toss that out there as an idea to the devs. 

Get the graphics working on 11 and make a pay for fun instead of pay to win and I’d buy this and any others you make in this genre for sure. 

Thanks!

### 4/5 — Appreciate the simplicity

*2019-10-12*

A lot of games these days try to pack in as many fancy mechanics and graphics as possible, but lose so much character in doing so. Not so with Dark Tower.

This game reminds me of Gauntlet from back in the day. Simple premise, simple controls, and simple graphics. It drops you in a tower and says, “Go!”

If you like exploring dungeons top-down style, you will probably like this game.

### 4/5 — Not bad at all

*2019-10-01*

Great time waster

### 4/5 — Thanks For IPhone X Support! Interface Still Borked, Though.

*2018-09-30*

Super challenging game, and very original. iPhone X Support is welcome. It was initially broken due to UI problems and still not perfect, but playable at least.

### 4/5 — Sam

*2016-12-22, version 1.65*

Very nice

### 4/5 — Old school fun

*2016-11-29, version 1.65*

Really quite charming. :)

### 4/5 — Old school dungeon crawler

*2016-05-03, version 1.65*

Good times once again in this dungeon crawler. Hours of fun and easy system to use and maintain. Give it a shot you'll like it!

### 4/5 — Great game but not easy

*2016-04-25*

The game is more strategy than a simple puzzle. The higher you go, the more difficult it gets rapidly! If you miss use a key or attack a wrong monster, you may have to restart the game.

There are monsters that decrease your gold. It is not easy to earn gold as well. And you won't be able to spend gold until the 3rd floor. In order to get there, you will have to encounter these thief monsters. There are also monsters that reduce your attack by 10 each encounter!

Monsters at the top floor are very powerful. The final boss has 3k+ attack and 4k+ hp. Thus you won't be able to beat this game unless you spend money... That's 1 star I deduct it from.

### 4/5 — FUN

*2016-03-30, version 1.65*

It's fun but tricky!!!

### 4/5 — Not Bad

*2016-02-21*

Had to restart a couple times to figure it out, but now that I know what to do, it's actually pretty fun. Makes you wanna keep going

### 5/5 — Great game!!

*2016-01-08, version 1.6*

Really good game. Not too easy to beat! Gotta think hard to beat it.

### 1/5 — Broken interface

*2021-03-20*

Doesn't work right on iPhone 12 promax

### 1/5 — Pretty cool, too bad it’s unplayable

*2018-03-13*

I wanted to like this game, but it was a lesson in frustration. The few times it lasted before crashing for me to get a sense of the intense puzzle dynamics, I dug it - and then it would completely fritz out on me. Too bad - deleting.

**Developer response:** Hello, Thanks for the feedback we updated the game and fixed the crashing.

### 1/5 — Crashes Constantly

*2018-03-13*

Crashes constantly on an iPad Pro (at least five times in five minutes).  I saw enough of the game mechanics to like it, but not love it.  But only if it’s playable, and it’s not.

### 2/5 — Needs a tutorial/Crashes/Freezes

*2019-01-21*

This game could be fun but, as of now, it’s just frustrating and unplayable.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback :) we added a video in the game options button and fixed the crashes.

### 2/5 — Small fonts

*2019-01-20*

I have an X and the fonts are too small to read. Just started a minute ago so I will update my review in a few more minutes if I make it that far.

**Developer response:** we made the font better to read thanks for your feedback ;)

### 2/5 — It’s fun & Funny

*2018-05-28*

Ok below sounds like it’s more frustrating than fun. It’s fun. It’s more fun than frustrating.

It’s funny cuz it actually makes a fizzle sound just before it crashes. Like there’s an electrical short or something. The game is fun if you’re up for restarting every few minutes. Literally 2/3 mins and it sizzles. Then when you go back you’re dumped someplace different then you were when it fizzled.
Just go with it and it’ll be fun.

**Developer response:** Hi, Thanks for the feedback:) try out are the newer version.

### 2/5 — Overall a good game

*2014-02-14, version 1.3*

Fun, simple to play. The Lite version runs very well, so well I decided to get the full version. It crashes and is unplayable. I can start it but when I select a player or create a new one it just drops. IPad Air with iOS 7. Whatever the most current version is

### 3/5 — Fun but flawed

*2023-07-12*

Game is good, I’ve enjoyed it but at the same time cannot be beaten without watching advertisements…..the game is a logic maze of combat and stat gaining, most games like this have you manipulate your hit points and keys as barriers of failure….I don’t mind that it’s a puzzle game…..the problem is that I’ve managed floor 14 on my first go and that was with “help” from give reviews and go to Facebook. I got stuck where I can’t beat some enemies…. Playing again and without that extra help I can’t beat floor 7…. It doesn’t matter what I do, it’s statistically impossible to finish the game without watching advertisements for gold.

### 3/5 — Whack

*2019-02-18*

Really odd needs polishing

### 3/5 — Dark Tower

*2017-01-04, version 1.65*

Like someone else mentioned, use your keys wisely

### 5/5 — Tough game

*2016-03-25*

It is a good game, makes you think out your moves before you make them.

### 5/5 — Relaxing

*2016-03-11*

Good so far, easy to pick up. 

D-pad style control to move through maze-like levels using keys. Just think about how you use your keys, it got me stuck sometimes that I wish there was an undo button.
