## What is Dink Smallwood HD?

"Dink Smallwood is a perfect example of the refined basics of classic RPG and adventure games…enjoy the hearty dose of something simple, silly, and special." - Jordan Thomas, Avault.com

"The main hook in this game has to be the sense of humor that permeates it... the difference is that this game is beautiful, gory, and has a wonderful (and twisted) sense of humor.” - T. Byrl Baker, Computer Gaming World

It all began in a world where dragons roamed the land and knights fought with valor and honor.

And then there was Dink.  Can a simple pig farmer thrust into an epic journey of magic and adventure save the world?

### 5/5 — 好玩

*2026-07-23*

剧情好无厘头，喜欢主角

### 4/5 — No sound

*2025-12-11, version 2.08*

I love it, but unfortunately I don't have any sound. 😭

### 5/5 — Amazing game by amazing developer

*2025-03-08, version 2.08*

The person who developed this game (Seth?) is such a wonderful human.  He made a game many years ago called L.O.R.D. (Legend of the Red Dragon).  This was a BBS game for modem - if you know what this means, you know!  I ran a small BBS and Seth was so great to work with.  

His story lines and sense of humor are legendary (see what I did there).  Thank you for this treasure and the UPDATE!  I’ll be playing all night and wish this developer would create more content or more games.

Thank you - if we can send you money with Venmo or PayPal say the word!

### 5/5 — Memory Lane

*2024-12-14, version 1.98*

I played this growing up and could never remember the name, but recently found it on Reddit. I played the whole game from my iPhone 15 pro without a problem, the only issue was that I couldn’t see how much coin I had due to the white bar that’s present at the bottom of the screen in Game Mode. Some of the mods are not iPhone friendly. Pilgrim’s quest for example (one of the more popular mods), doesn’t offer a phone friendly way to type in riddle answers. I plan to try from my MacBook- even though this app is only for iPhone/iPad.

### 5/5 — 👍

### 5/5 — A big thank you

*2024-11-26, version 1.98*

Thank you for all the memories . Back in the day we had no money to buy games and somehow found this gem . All of us friends used to gather around taking turns trying to kill the cave monster.

I really appreciate the effort taken to port these games on to the latest platforms.

God bless 
Cheers

### 5/5 — 场景切换太晃眼了而且有点别扭

*2024-11-06*

建议平滑场景变换 有的时候手滑一切换事件就刷新了很难受 很搞的游戏 豪玩

### 5/5 — Great sense of nostalgia!

*2024-01-22, version 1.98*

I first played Dink Smallwood in about 2001. My family didn’t have a good pc growing up but could easily run Dink. I spent hours on the game and got a little better at it each time around. I’m 31 years upon writing this review and found the game in the App Store. I quickly downloaded the game and was able to complete it after a few hours of gameplay. Thank you to the Dink Smallwood team for creating a special and nostalgic game. Hopefully this message can get through to the Dink Smallwood team so that they can read about my appreciation 😊

### 5/5 — Cute game from childhood

*2023-10-15, version 1.98*

Dink Smallwood (originally called "Nobody Burns My Dog") is a great game from my childhood growing up in the 90s, made by legendary BBS game producer Seth Robinson (creator of Legend of the Red Dragon).

Dink is a short game thats relatively easy to play and beat. The port is a little difficult to play on the iPad, but it plays great on M1/M2-equipped Macs. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — W game

*2023-05-20, version 1.98*

Fun
