### 3/5 — Carino

*2026-03-05, version 1.0.3*

Bello graficamente carina la storia peccato che duri poco e che non si possa saltare difficile capire dove andare ma qm una bella esperienza, non vale 6 euro comunque, scricate figli della luce che è uguale e piu bello

### 4/5 — ずっと好きなゲーム

*2026-03-04, version 1.0.3*

風ノ旅ビトを知ってからかれこれ14年くらいになる。
友人宅で遊んだ時は初っ端雪山からのスタートで何も分からず何が楽しいのかも分からず、でもずっと記憶に残っていたのでスマホでも遊べると知って即購入した記憶があります。
始めから自分の手で初めてクリアした時の感動は大きかったなぁ。周回も全然苦じゃないからもう何回も遊んでる。
PS4などよりはグラフィックや操作性は劣るしバグもあるけどオフラインで遊ぶ分には全く問題ないです。

オンラインで遊んだ時に旅ビトと会うと特定の場所でどちらかのビトが進めなくなってしまうことがあるのでそれだけ残念。
奇跡的に最後まで一緒に行けることもあるけど極稀です。
少額かもしれないけどお金を払っているのでバグ改善をお願いしたいです。

### 2/5 — 頭好暈

*2026-03-02, version 1.0.3*

不小心按到下載，花了150想說玩看看，結果頭超暈，和光遇一樣不太懂要幹嘛，覺得很惶恐（但光遇畫風我比較喜歡，可以去玩看看

### 2/5 — Nope.

*2025-12-08, version 1.0.3*

I been a frustrated fan of Sky for many years, i played many hours, completed the game to a sacrificing end in the Eye of Eden.   Journey should've just been added to Sky. Journey is so frustrating, why would i want to play a game i walk in sludge the whole time. It's a game! Let's have fun! It's not fun, it's a mindless puzzle where you don't have full control of your very slow character that walks off cliffs. There's not even a jump button.

### 3/5 — 有難い

*2025-12-02, version 1.0.3*

大好きなゲームなのであつでもオフラインにして一人でこの世界に入れるのはありがたすぎる。
ただ、アプリである以上操作性はやはり厳しいのでプレイするならPS3、4でやった方が良い！
ABZUもお願いします......
つけっぱなしにして流しておきたいんです

### 3/5 — こんばんは

*2025-11-23, version 1.0.3*

skyを遊んでずっと気になっており、話題にあがることも何度か見ていましたが、800円ということでしぶっていました。

プレイヤーと出会うことがあると聞いていましたが、私は誰とも会いませんでした。プレイ時間は2時間弱で、最後までプレイさせていただきました。

遊んでみた感想としては、skyと本当に似ているな。という感じです。
skyが無料のゲームアプリであるが故に似ている部分を見つければ見つけるほど、わざわざ買う必要はあったのか？と私は思ってしまいました。

画質は特別良いとは言えませんが、幻想的な雰囲気はすごく目をひきました。大きく鳴く動作をするとふわっと地面が揺れ動く様子はつい何度も鳴いてみたくなります。
音も素敵でした。
イヤホンをつけてプレイしましたが、驚かせられる場面が少しですがあり、その時は音がすごく大きく感じました。禍々しくいかにも、という場所ですが、私はあまり得意ではありませんでしたね、

いい面、すごいと思った点で、このゲームには言葉の説明はほとんど無いと思いますが、視覚的に分かるように気を使っているのがすごく伝わりました。すごくスラスラと進めることができ、視覚的、直感的な分かるのが楽しいと感じました。

ただ私は1度クリアしたらもう正直いいかな、と思いました。やり込み要素もあまり感じず、再度遊ぶのはちょっと厳しいと感じますね。


このゲームを気に入る人はいると思います。素敵なゲームでした。

ただ私はそこまでではなかったので、星3と付けさせていただきます。

### 3/5 — Se crashea muy seguido

*2025-10-28, version 1.0.3*

Me a pasado que se queda pegado el personaje sin poder moverse, pero si mantiene el movimiento el entorno incluso su capa se mueve… y lo corro en un IPhone 15… problema de crasheos

### 5/5 — probably the best game on apple

*2025-10-17, version 1.0.3*

### 5/5 — 一回クリアしてからやめた

### 5/5 — 神作品

*2025-09-12, version 1.0.3*

最後が感度石でとても楽しかった

### 3/5 — ACABA MUITO RÁPIDO

*2025-08-16, version 1.0.3*

O jogo tem tudo para ser melhor, mas ele acaba! Poderia ter mais fases, mais exploração, e por ser um jogo pago eu esperava mais! Já joguei Sky filhos da luz que é parecido e é grátis, achei bem melhor! Eu gostaria de vir todos os dias e jogar um pouco, mas infelizmente em 2 horas jogando você zera o jogo todo.

### 5/5 — ❤️

*2025-07-25, version 1.0.3*

### 1/5 — Very frustrating

*2026-01-31, version 1.0.3*

The character is so slow and difficult to control, but if you missed one thing there is no way to turn back so you have to start all over again not from a check point, very frustrating. I want my money back.

### 1/5 — Overrated

*2026-01-03, version 1.0.3*

Don’t waste your money to buy this game! It’s not worth a dime, all the positive reviews seem to be from bots or something. First of all, graphics are total trash, except for the sand, but you get tired of it pretty soon, because it’s sand, sand, sand, everywhere. Secondly, it won’t allow you to move camera as you wish to try and see where you are going to, what’s around you and so on. In some places it will forcefully move camera on its’ own. Thirdly, there are no warnings of what is going to happen, at the same time controls are extremely poor, to the point of nonexistent, and you just see the thing you need to collect after you PASS it, and it swooshes you without an opportunity to turn back; and then you have to RESTART the entire trashy game over just to collect what you missed! And that’s with you already aware of game being divided into playable areas with no return back, but you are not safe even after check point, because it won’t let you to start right at the beginning of the said checkpoint, basically you need to know in advance, what is going to happen, in order to peacefully enjoy game to the fullest. Fourthly, there are no other players, like at all, i think i met someone once, but all we could do was “chirping” at each other. There are no chat icons, no chat in the menu, not even a bubble, nothing, nada, no way to say anything, or at least show an emote or something. Extremely disappointed, i want my money back, it’s a total scam!

### 1/5 — ?

*2025-09-30, version 1.0.3*

Still don’t understand what it’s about  CAN you help?
May be

### 1/5 — Travamento

*2025-09-28, version 1.0.3*

Congela várias vezes no iPhone 14 pro iOS 26. Quebrou minha imersāo

### 1/5 — The worst

*2025-08-13, version 1.0.3*

Paid £5 for the slowest dumbest game I have ever played in my life. I was looking for Ottos Odysee and for some reason i thought this was like a more 3D version of that game. Spoiler alert! When you get to the top of the mountain nothing happens. The game just ends and the credits go up.

### 1/5 — รีวิว

*2025-06-22, version 1.0.3*

เกมจบเร็วไม่มีอะไรให้เล่นเพิ่มอีก จบแล้วก็เริ่มใหม่เหมือนเดิม น่าเบื่อเสียดายเงิน

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2025-06-07, version 1.0.3*

If you’ve ever played sky this like a brief demo. Sky is free with in app purchases. This app isn’t worth it. Save yourself the money. What a joke. Good ideal that fails in delivery.

### 1/5 — 第6關高塔有huge bug！！！

*2025-05-29, version 1.0.3*

點亮了第一個壁畫之後，只有一個跳躍平台有紅色飛行符，無法跳到二樓，無法點亮第二層的壁畫！！！38hkd買到了垃圾遊戲！！！手機與iPad都嘗試過了，還是一樣的情況

### 1/5 — Journey isn’t meant for iOS

*2025-03-30, version 1.0.3*

Love journey but it isn’t optimized for iOS at all. I removed from my iPhone and requested a refund. Doesn’t play well. Can’t sign in to your PSN or account for syncing. 

Not great. 

Better on console.

### 1/5 — Geld Macher

*2024-09-15, version 1.0.3*

Ich habe auf diese Spiel gefreut und es Sorfort gekauft . Aber leide es ist komplett die selbe Model von der spiel selbst  nur mit anderen Rendering alles anderen sind gleich nur viele schlechte gemacht . Wie nur eine Skizzen von der originale Spiel selbst . Nur gemacht für Geld Gewinnen. Ich fühle mich betrügt wurden …. Gar nicht gut .

### 5/5 — 俺はとても好き❤️

*2026-06-03, version 1.0.3*

生きるという事は巡礼なのかもね。目的なんかなくとも自然と足が動く。荒廃してるはずなのに何故か美しい。簡単にクリアしてしまい本当に申し訳ない。

### 5/5 — Stays with you until the very end

*2026-05-26, version 1.0.3*

I’ve always wanted to play Journey for the longest time. It’s been on my radar for years and, thanks to the iOS port, I have been able to FINALLY experience it myself. And boy, what a journey it was! The music, the atmosphere, the tension, the flying, i can go on and on! Reaching the end made my cry (it’s rare when games do that) and it’s stuck with me long after I completed it for the first time. Everything, and I truly mean EVERYTHING about this game has tugged on my heartstrings and hasn’t let it go since. Absolutely phenomenal experience, (one i highly recommend you go into blind like I did) and one that will stay with you long after the credits roll.

### 5/5 — 絶対買え

*2026-05-17, version 1.0.3*

何年も前に買ってからずっと定期的に旅をしたくなる
最高のゲーム
まじで美しい
言葉はいらない
やってみて欲しい

### 5/5 — Peak Art via Digital Experience

*2026-05-05, version 1.0.3*

It’s emotional throughout, evoking depths of reflection that expands beyond gaming but an experience far greater.

One of few titles PS3 left looking more powerful than Xbox 360 back when, each grain of sand, lively, active & enormous environments finely detailed. 

My iOS devices do, appropriately translate a more than viable version with every note as PS3, tho may not represent this port on more premium hardware, some visuals may be reduced in fidelity but made the cut fine.

On iPad Mini 4, iPhone SE 3, 12 & itty bitty iPod Touch 7 all objectively convey THE “Journey” experiences in totality. With noticeable scaling between chips/resolution, an A8 the weakest SoC here still ended up being my primary play through due to a still incredible display on iPad Mini 4 & obviously this game cannot be recommended enough. 

Love it, by it, feel it & yea good day y’all.

### 5/5 — 진짜.... 해보세요..

*2026-05-03, version 1.0.3*

해보라는 말 밖에 할 말이 없습니다...
진짜 후기 진심으로 쓰는게 살면서 처음인데... 진짜 명작입니다. 명작이라는 단어를 이런데에 쓰는거군요.. 하하 정말 뜻깊고 값진 여정이었습니다. 돈이 하나도 아깝지 않아요 정말 감사합니다. 이런 경험을 할 수 있게 해주어 감사합니다.

### 5/5 — Unique experience

*2026-04-19, version 1.0.3*

A beautiful blend of game and cinema with storytelling. The experience is short but unforgettable.  Well worth it.

### 5/5 — Exquisite

*2026-03-28, version 1.0.3*

One of the most unexpectedly beautiful games I’ve ever played. The word “game” is too small to describe this experience.

### 5/5 — Beautiful Game

*2026-01-25, version 1.0.3*

I must say, I was a little apprehensive at first, but I gave it a chance and I am SO glad I did.  What a game.  There’s something about playing this that is so incredibly satisfying, yet relaxing.  The musical score as you play is nothing short of absolutely freaking outstanding!  Great game.  Love it!  Best 5 bucks I ever spent!  Thank you thank you thank you!

### 5/5 — Вечная классика

*2025-12-01, version 1.0.3*

На планшете смотрится идеально

### 5/5 — Pls add servers you could join on the menu and a hangout place

*2025-11-26, version 1.0.3*

I love the models but I want to play with friends, not empty servers or random people, also voice chat could be useful also, guest acc could not talk to other people or see their texts, junior acc could text but not voice chat, 13+ could use voice chat ánd text, 18+ cant talk to any teen but could play with other adults, and 9 under could use chat stickers to talk but not use their own text, pls add secret accessories in the maps
