### 5/5 — Great retro

*2026-03-11*

This is a very nice retro game, and it is somewhat similar to final fantasy 1 (Japanese version). It is quite short but is still enjoyable. One note, classes on Good side is better than Evil side. I just bought the sequel because I enjoy this one very much.

### 5/5 — Wizardry meets Final Fantasy Origional

*2026-01-28*

So, love everything you have done here, I own both 1 and 2 on steam. I would LOVE for a part 3 using the battle system from the 2nd one and class changes in the style of stranger in sword city revisited. You guys do great work and love the retro pixel style and art. Would love to collaborate sometime in twitch. If you need free publicity! (RajinDragon)

### 5/5 — 300円は安い

*2026-01-10*

今どきコンビニのおにぎりが300円になる時代に数時間〜も楽しく遊べるゲームが300円なんてありがたいですね

評論家よろしくな乞食はおいといて、続編の作成頑張ってください
リリースされたらぜひ購入したいと思います

改善希望としてはキーパッドのカスタム機能の充実をお願いします
十字キー、ABの配置や大小などスクエニのサガコレに実装されていましたが便利でした

### 5/5 — A concept 40 years in the making!

*2025-12-12*

For old school RPG fans, this is about as perfect a game as you can get. Final fantasy style aesthetics, in a Wizardry style game, and they are blended perfectly. 
If you’re an adult with kids, and very little time to immerse yourself in an old school dungeon crawler like the old days, this is perfect. You can explore for hours, or just grind for ten minutes here and there as your time allows. 
Great variety of character choices and development styles makes it fun to beat the game, and start it again with different heroes and alignments in your party.
Free to try out, with a very reasonable cost to buy the full version. And there’s no ads or additional “pay to win” cash grabs after you’ve bought the game. I highly recommend this one!

### 5/5 — Very fun RPG

*2025-11-13*

It’s rare to see a real game on mobile! Thank you for making it available on this platform!

### 5/5 — ノーマルクリア。

*2025-11-08, version 1.2.8*

気楽にサクッと楽しめました。

### 5/5 — 次回作も期待

*2025-10-01*

とても面白かったです。現在PC版の2を予定してるようですが、ぜひアプリ版もお願いしたいです。
ただ2はwizよりFF寄りになるようなので、もし3を予定されるならwiz＋FF＋シレン系不思議のダンジョンを期待したいです。
鑑定されてないアイテム、入る度にマップがリセットされて1から探索できる、合成あり、難易度高め、チーム編成で転職ありスキルあり…。そんなゲームを遊んでみたいです。ぜひお願いします！

### 4/5 — 懐かしい

*2025-09-20, version 1.2.8*

まずまず

### 5/5 — 面白い！！！ファミコン時代に帰れる名作！

*2025-09-16, version 1.2.8*

ファミコン時代に帰れる名作です。FF風味なのが素晴らしい。

### 5/5 — こういうのが良いんだよ

*2025-09-15*

タイトルの通りです。広告なしの買い切りで、ストレスなくサクッと楽しませてもらってます。

現在8F攻略中ですが、落とし穴で初めて全滅しました。最初の3つくらいは気づいたけど、あとは全部踏み抜いて…w
まぁあの頃はそういうのも普通にあったかもね…と思いつつ。
(理不尽と高難易度は違うよね、と今なら思いますw)
もうちょっとで図鑑埋まりそうなのでがんばるぞー。

ところで、他に同じ症状の方を見ないですが…
こちらで遊んでいる限りでは、アプリ切り替え、またはホーム画面を表示した後、アプリに戻ってくると100%BGMが消えます。
環境は iPhone 14(iOS 18.6.2)。昨日DLしたので、最新版のはずです。
タイトルに戻る、リセットボタン押下でも変化なく、アプリ再起動まで完全無音です…
ちなみに三国ヒストリアでも再現できました。

すでに2を制作しておられるとのことで、レトロしつつ令和なゲームにしておられるようなので、今からとても楽しみです😊

(追記)
BGMの件を別途お問い合わせしたところ、ゲームエンジンに起因する理由とのこと。
issue斜め読みしましたが大分難儀そうですね;
2がリリースの頃には解決されてると良いのですが…
