Amazing game! Don’t hesitate to buy!!
This game is so good!! I’m almost finished with it! It’s a long game for sure. And it has very good story to go along with it! It might take a little to get used to how this game plays but it’s pretty similar to a link’s awakening or final fantasy for the game boy. There is only one glitch I’ve experienced while playing but I quickly found a workaround. When you use the flute to send you back to the village the game freezes. Or that’s what you would think judging by the frozen screen but you can still hear yourself moving around even if the screen is frozen. The flute puts you right by a save crystal so you just need to click up and A then you’ve saved your game. Just reload and then you’ve still got all your progress and everything is good. Other then that one problem this game is amazing I love the encounters it’s kinda like Pokémon. But the exploration is more like Zelda with puzzles and fun mechanics and gameplay. There are items you can get to help you make your way around and lots of fun things to do. And mini dungeons with a boss knight to bring you closer to completing the game. Once you have the hang of things it’s a great game and with the recent updates you don’t have to worry about meny bugs. Overall definitely worth 4$ I would pay 20$

Need more control options
This game would actually play great in portrait due to the 4:3 aspect ratio. Still though the buttons should be adjustable. Playing on the iPhone 12 mini makes the d pad tiny and cramps my thumbs because it’s so low. Also you can’t change direction in game without first lifting your thumb off then tapping a different direction. This game has so much potential but it hurts to play.

Bugs, not enough save points
the flute causes the game to freeze. No save point on the pirate ship?? F that
Great game but
Love playing this game but the portals are not working and freeze the game so you can’t go any farther.
Ok!
Had issues at first but running great now!
29SEP2019 updated review
A truly fantastic RPG that, no joke, rivals the NES’ Legend of Zelda. Interesting storyline, gorgeous 8-bit-like graphics, intuitive controls, clean menus free of distracting ornamentation, and remarkable variety of worlds to explore.
I hope they build on the success of this game and release a second campaign. If they do, I hope they keep KoT’s fundamentals: there’s a reason why the original Zelda is so beloved. “Don’t fix what isn’t broken.”

Hello, Please try the update 1.04 it should fix your issue. Best, Josh
DONT BUY IT
Completely wasted time, total rubbish, new update=new game, you just lost all your progress. Oh, there is a big bug in iOS version, King’s flute, frozen the game every time you were using it.

Hi there, Sorry about that. We had to do a full reset because of some other issues we were having with the game engine. Please email us at info@crescentmoongames.com
Updates broke it
I updated immediately when I saw there was a new update because some of the game’s features were bugged, like the kings flute freezing the game. Update 1.03 broke the game completely. I tapped on the app after and it just went to a black screen forever. I’ve already put a lot of time in the game, so I didn’t want to uninstall it and reinstall to try to fix it so I could keep my progress. So I just waited around until 1.04 to see if that would fix it and I wouldn’t have to lose my progress. So I was really excited to see the new update and I downloaded it immediately, only to find when I opened the game that it completely reset. Now the only option is “new game” on the menu. This may have been the worst 8 dollars I’ve ever spent.

Sorry about that - please email us at info@crescentmoongames.com so we can help you out.
Can’t access the controls
Can’t even access all the controls. Need a refund.
Lost Progress
The game locks up right after the unity screen. Deleting and re-installing resolved the issue but now I have to start over from the beginning.

Sorry about that! Please try the update 1.04 it should fix the issue of not loading.
Great Game - Locked Up on Loading Screen
Loved the gameplay, but I lost ~5 hours due to the game not loading passed the “Unity” screen.
It’s ok.
Honesty if all of its flaws were ironed out and it was released on the game boy color, then it would just be just an average game.
There are a few problems that really hold this game back but I’ll just go down the list.
- The kings flute (warp back to town) doesn’t work correctly and freezes the game view when used, there is a work around where after the sound stops you walk up and hit A to save your game, and then after quit and come back, but that shouldn’t be something that people have to do.
- The Puzzles. It’s ok to have puzzles in a game to do other stuff except fight, but I think there should be a quick way to reset the blocks and your position Incase you screw up. Also I think enemies should not spawn in rooms with block puzzles, it makes you rush to try and avoid fights and causes you to accidentally push blocks.
- The effects (burn, poison, paralysis) never go away, the ONLY ways to get rid of them is either by potion or by save crystal. It wouldn’t be so bad if the game didn’t give you one gold piece at a time (you can’t sell your stuff either, all the game let’s you sell IS potions and they only sell for a coin a pop). I think a difficulty option could fix this.
- The crafting system is more confusing then it is cool, I’d rather just have generic shops where I can buy items and the crafting be a side thing that I can optionally use.
- This one is something you will only understand if you play the game, but the enemies have been recycled in a very strange way. Enemies that you have fought before will appear in later parts of the game, be just about as powerful as they were before except for a small health boost, but give tons of XP. Recycling enemies is fine but I think they should at least be colored differently.
The game isn’t awful or anything, but as much as I want to like it, the game feels like a flash game on newgrounds attempting to be a nes game. It’s not worth the price in my opinion.

Buggy
I saw this app in a story by Apple. It was buggy to begin with, but not it won’t even start up before crashing.
Update 1.03 broke the game
Just installed the update and now the game won’t open. Company logo shows and then goes to black.
Lost 3 hours of progress
Game locked up after Unity logo once and then forever after, and the only way I got it to open was to reinstall.
Yo
It’s a good game and I got about five hours in and now it won’t even open. It happened when the new update came.
Game breaking bug!
Like one of the previous reviews said, I had to download the game because it wouldn’t open up again. (This is my third time trying it, wish me luck!) wonderful game, I love the concepts and the feel of combat. I wish I can get deeper in and see what else it has to offer!
Too broken to enjoy
The bugs mess up vital parts of the game and do not allow enjoyable play. These problems should not exist at launch.
King's Flute bugged
King's Flute doesn't work at all and freezes the game. I've reinstalled and still have the same issue. 5 stars when fixed.
Broken
Just paid for this app a couple of days ago. It has been quite buggy (freezing when using a couple of the items) and so I was excited when they released a new version. After I updated to the new version, the app no longer even works. When loading the app initially, the screen goes black and freezes forever.
