Great game, HORRIBLE conversion
DQIV (DWIV) was a childhood fav! The story is great, the game is great. The "team" that converted this to mobile is an abomination! Most 5 year-olds speak better English than this translation team, and the fact that you can't mute a mobile game is UTTERLY PREPOSTEROUS! Shame, shame, shame on whomever is responsible for this. Game control pad is over-done/hypersensitive for mobile gaming, and the camera angles on this "3D conversion" are an unnecessary hassle and very confusing. Wow!
Dragon Quest III was SO GOOD! Like literally the best mobile RPG I've ever played. I simply just don't understand how this disaster was ever published.
FOLLOW-UP: Above was my review of the game while still in Chapter 3 or 4. All still applies! Translation is truly awful and the camera angles in this 3D version cause immense confusion and literally defy logic- there are places where you will inevitably be forced to use a guide to manipulate your way through the game because of poor map design. Still though, now that I got through the [true] ending, the nostalgia flows freely. This is [was] SUCH AN AMAZING GAME! Best storyline ever. Well done, Square Enix (circa 1990)! So glad to play again.

Garbage
8+ hours into the game, in chapter 4 heading to the mines and lost ALL save data. Game was done saving so closed out the window. When I next loaded the app save data was completely gone, including most recent cloud save data. Only cloud save data available was from chapter 1 and only 19 minutes into the game

No Hoffmans Place?
I still remember playing this game when it was Dragon Warrior4 on the NES. And then again on the Nintendo DS. Almost a flawless game, just as I remember. One little bug, I can’t seem to get Hoffman‘s place off the ground. Maybe it’s just me. Otherwise, one of my favorite all-time games.
One of the greatest JRPGs of all time
It’s a decent port but lacks modern features.
