### 4/5 — Good game,takes awhile to get used to the apps UI

*2024-01-18*

App has some hiccups and some features are missing that you have to switch to browser version to use/see, I’ve noticed text chat doesn’t like apostrophes or other special characters as well. 
On the up side the medal tracking is detailed messaging system overall is easier to track

### 3/5 — Very glitchy almost impossible to play

*2023-11-17*

The Mobile app still has a long way to go before it can be functional. UI needs some upgrades, The menus are very cluttered and hard to get to things like the guild vault or who has guild equipment. Still really enjoy the game just like the old days, love to see some further improvements!

### 3/5 — Frustrating

*2022-11-21, version 1.2.2*

Been playing this game for a couple of days, the only frustrating thing is game drops out about three times an hour, maybe more this needs to be sorted, also how many Snow Leopards do you need to kill to get a skin, up to now I have killed about 10 and still no skin…..

### 5/5 — Superb RPG

*2022-03-20*

The player choice is limitless. Great community, UI is a massive improvement. Keep up the updates! Only con is that I can’t access private messages at this time :/

### 4/5 — Finally a good iOS application

*2022-03-03, version 1.0.11*

Over few years in beta and available few times and removed again it’s now a pretty good iOS port.
Hopefully it’s grow better in the future, still have quite a lot crashes now and then but it’s working.
If it get fixed over the time reevaluate my review and giving full stars.

### 5/5 — Fell in Love over again

*2022-01-14, version 1.0.10*

Perfect retro charm

### 5/5 — App seems to be working now!

*2021-12-26*

As of 1.0.6, app seems to be loading without crashing. I’ve been playing off and on since the update and no loading issues!

Super love this game so far. Somewhat active community, and relatively supportive. One touch control for fighting and you choose from a list on the right of enemies you want to fight in the square you’re in. Low inventory at first, and upgrades can be made with gold or premium FSP currency. 

The menu has been updated so it’s no longer a scrollable bar at the top. Much better and less confusing to navigate. There *is* an energy system, however this can also be upgraded to have more max stamina and increase the amount generated per hour.  

Interested to see what the events are like. I missed the most recent one, unfortunately.

### 3/5 — It doesn’t load

*2021-12-20, version 1.0.4*

I try it again and again and it shows a blank screen then closes down.

### 3/5 — Love the game but

*2021-12-16*

The app crashes and after that you have to uninstall it and then install it just to play again. Please fix it. Love the game tho!

### 5/5 — More than meets the eye

*2021-12-15*

First review I’ve ever done but I had to stop and say that this hame is more than worth playing, it’s content goes so much deeper than it looks at first glance. When one first looks at Fallen Sword they see a small character doing small actions, but there are various features crammed into one great game: Guilds, Auction House, Potion Composing, PvP etc. I mostly made this review to try and let people know that there are many players in the community such as myself “MiniSasuke” that would love to see this game fly off into its next era of mobile, and with that said I know there is someone willing to answer any questions you may have and you never know, you could end up in a great guild and meet a handful of friends in the process 100/100 even assuming the app will need to be updated as it goes ;) hope I don’t get removed for off topic but I feel this was necessary, Happy Hubting!

### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2021-12-15*

I was enjoying the game, it forced close earlier, since then I get a grey screen every time I open it, and to make it worse it’s not created a new account again for me the one time I got it to log back in!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Complete failure by HCS

*2024-07-28*

This game literally isn't fun. PvP losses take XP (I've lost almost 2 levels), the XP loss from losing in PvE encounters is ridiculously punishing to newer players (you lose roughly half a level) and mobs give near nothing as far as XP goes, which results in the game being nothing but a stamina-sink (the game runs in a stamina system).Nothing is explained in any way (wait until you try to pull gear from your guild stash and have someone yell at you because the system to pull guild gear is terrible). General chat is nothing but abusive and unmoderated. The app also doesn't give the full functionality as the website (can't block anyone, can't see how often stamina refreshes, among other things). Additionally, the game crashes CONSTANTLY. I would steer far, far away from this poor port of a website game.

### 1/5 — Very glitchy almost impossible to play

*2023-11-14*

The Mobile app still has a long way to go before it can be considered “usable” notifications don’t really show up and certain features are missing/have zero explanation. I just invented an item, can’t find it google it and says it’s in an “item mailbox and you only have 24 hours to claim” well there is no said mailbox on mobile or they’ve completely hidden it, there’s not a red notice showing I have something new some where like a message or anything. I’ve played this game from 2006-11 and was excited to return. 2 days in and this has really been a bummer

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-07-28*

Overall terrible app. Can’t log in since time of download. Unresponsive support so don’t expect much help. Poorly crafted.

### 1/5 — Bad customer support

*2023-07-09*

I played almost ten years ago religiously and was perms banned for being under the age! I was allowed to play by my parents I spent all mt chore money growing my account and even to this day at 24 my support ticket is unappealable? It’s been almost 10 years.

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2021-12-29*

Clicked on create account and all the options on the screen just disappear. 0 stars dont release something that is 100 percent broke

### 1/5 — app dosent even work

*2021-12-29*

i login and it jjst give me a loading screen installed 3 times all the same glitch do not get this app

### 1/5 — Bad bad bad decision

*2021-12-14*

You finally...after years and years of people asking for an app...decide to finally do an app. And you throw the new people in with the existing game. This means brand new players have to deal with people who have everything and have been playing forever. Really poor decision. There is no way for the new players to make money since the existing people control the market. As someone who ran a major guild and was a member of the top guild I would not recommend any new player to join at this point.

### 2/5 — Misleading in-game currency offers

*2023-03-26*

In app you will often see news articles regarding offers/deals for FSP (in-game currency) that if you try to capitalize on don't apply to the app (website/browser offer only). There are no disclaimers in the news that mention the offer is valid on the full website only. I can only imagine how much hunted cow studios is profiting from this misleading advertisement as I have seen multiple posts in world chat where people purchase FSP in app and don't get the deal offered in the news article. 

Game is fun and nostalgic, but It you are considering playing on app beware this scummy sales tactic.

### 2/5 — Great game, not on mobile

*2022-09-27*

Mobile version has too many errors.

### 2/5 — A quest that can’t be completed.

*2022-03-28*

You told me to go to the basement of the cathedral but there is no stairs or any other ways on the map, very well, now I am done.

### 5/5 — RECOMMEND FOR ALL AGES

*2026-01-08*

Hunted Cow has blessed me with a life long game that keeps me entertained

### 5/5 — Talk about feeling old

*2025-02-22*

I grew up playing this game it still feels like a true rpg /mmo game what happened to the fans also I see a few complaints about being put in with players who have been playing for years I’m not sure what they expected that’s how the games always been noob

### 5/5 — Talk about feeling old

*2025-02-09*

I grew up playing this game it still feels like a true rpg /mmo game what happened to the fans

### 5/5 — Addicted to this game

*2024-12-19*

It’s not all bells and whistles.  This turns many people off but I like not having the bright lights and frenzied action and I can go at my own pace. It does take awhile to get into the game. Be patient and join a guild. They will help you learn the game and hopefully you’ll make some new friends.

### 5/5 — This game is amazing

*2024-11-27*

I recently returned to this game after years away, and I’m blown away all over again. It’s an incredible old-school MMORPG that’s already amazing, but I feel it has so much untapped potential. The gameplay is engaging, and it’s clear how much care has gone into creating this experience. I’d love to share ideas with the team to make it even better, but honestly, it’s already such a joy to play. Highly recommend this to anyone who loves immersive, classic MMORPGs!

### 5/5 — Good game

*2024-10-04, version 1.3.3*

Been playing for many years and it’s a good game, the community is very nice but if you play this game it’s a lot better on the website instead of the app

### 5/5 — Apart from the rest

*2024-05-26*

Definitely a hidden gem that needs its props.

### 5/5 — Fumbled

*2024-05-24*

This is definitely a hidden Gem that needs more props. Sure wish more people knew about it

### 5/5 — FallenSword Classic

*2023-07-19*

Played this game in 2007-09, busy irl so quit the game. Just came back and it’s mobile now. All the Guild still exists, HCS done a great job maintaining its legacy.

### 5/5 — Hidden gem

*2022-09-05*

Wish more people were aware of this game, both on browser and on mobile. Stumbled upon it and found a true gem.
