Controls?

This is absolutely the worst port I have ever seen. The controls don’t make any sense, are completely non intuitive, no user’s guide. Just an absolute mess. And I’m out five bucks. Here’s a better use for your money: take five ones and jump in your car and head out to the local highway. Get your car up to the speed limit and roll down the window. Now toss your money out the window. Same effect as buying this game.

Disappearing eq

Equipment randomly disappears after level 25. Just logged on and i am in a dungeon with half my spellboojs and inventory gone. It keeps happening.

Response from developer

You may "save all to external media" from the main menu to create a backup. These save files are available via finder when connected to a desktop, please email moria@rufe.org with a copy of your save file.

An exemplar of touchscreen classic roguelikes

I love how closely this sticks to umoria. How do I shoot my bow? How do I close doors? I found most other things at the app’s page at rufe.org.

Response from developer

Thanks for reaching out via email. For others' sake: "Door spikes" replace umoria "iron spikes." Activate arrows in your inventory to receive a directional prompt, if a bow is wielded a bonus is applied when the projectile is fired.

Classic

Before Final Fantasy we had this 😂 I was so overjoyed to see that it was converted to iOS.

Pro Tip: Hold the center movement pad space + green button to repeat actions. Carpal tunnel is the real End Boss of this game.

Response from developer

Hahaha, thank you for the review!

Best traditional rogue on ios

I just want to say never stop updating this. This is literally peak ios gaming it has no ads and no in app purchases and a good price for how fun it is. An absolute banger. Oh also, only 2.1 mb.
