The original Planescape: Torment was released in 1999 to widespread critical acclaim. It won RPG of the Year from multiple outlets for its unconventional story, characters, and amazing soundtrack. Since then, millions of Planescape: Torment fans have enjoyed exploring the strange and dangerous city of Sigil and surrounding planes.

Discover an incredibly rich story and a unique setting unlike anything else in fantasy. Defeat strange and alien creatures, engage in rich dialogue, and explore the dark and dangerous Planescape setting in this 50+ hour RPG classic.

This is Planescape: Torment like you’ve never seen before.

Story:
"What can change the nature of a man?" 

You are The Nameless One, a hulking figure covered in scars and tattoos collected over the course of countless lives—none of which you can remember, but are now coming back to haunt you. You are prodded awake by Morte, a floating skull and keeper of secrets, to embark on an adventure taking the Nameless One from the dirty streets of Sigil into the mysterious Outer Planes and even into the depths of Hell itself.

In your search for answers, you'll find companions matching the bizarre nature of the planes: a chaste succubus who can kill with a kiss, a confused crossbow-wielding cube, a suit of armor animated by a spirit demanding JUSTICE, and more. With these companions and others at The Nameless One’s side, you will explore worlds in search of answers, all to discover that some destinies cannot be escaped and some memories cost more than an immortal should be willing to pay.

Beamdog’s Enhanced Edition titles are designed for 7 inch and larger tablets. We recommend this title to iPhone players using the iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus.

### 3/5 — Small text

*2026-07-04, version 3.1.3*

There needs to be a way to make the text bigger.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work and no controller support

*2026-06-30, version 3.1.3*

Game is unplayable. Controller doesn’t work. Refund as game is inoperable. Won’t even open.

### 5/5 — Une pépite

*2026-05-09*

Pour les puristes du Jdr. Rien à dire c est parfait.

### 4/5 — Great but could be better

*2026-01-12, version 3.1.3*

Planescape is a great game, hard to go wrong, but external keyboard and mouse support on iPad isn’t good. Touch controls on their own are passable but feel like you’re missing out on the intent of the experience.

### 3/5 — Please fix the zoom

*2025-10-18, version 3.1.3*

I love this game, but unfortunately it’s unplayable on the phone even when the text is scaled maximally. The buttons and text are just too small. I really would love to have this classic be playable.

### 5/5 — 전투 난이도가 낮은게 장점이 됨

*2025-07-14*

솔직히 폰으로 BG2는 못해도 토먼트는 할만합니다 ㅎㅎ

### 5/5 — One of the best written CRPGs ever made

*2025-07-08, version 3.1.3*

This game is a masterpiece of storytelling by the writer of Kotor 2, Fallout: New Vegas (in part), and Prey. Chris Avellone has a particular style when it comes to his stories that can make some beats feel familiar, but they are always a delight to play through. The port runs perfectly on iPad and was awesome to play through on mobile.

### 5/5 — Super.

*2025-05-03*

Ist so super gemacht

### 5/5 — What an amazing game

*2024-12-19, version 3.1.3*

The best narrative game.  Thank you team for porting this classic.

### 1/5 — Обман с русским языком

*2024-11-18, version 3.1.3*

Уважайте игроков готовых покупать игру двадцатилетней давности. Язык до сих пор не адаптирован, то что предлагается в комментариях подходит только для андроид, на айпад не возможно приобрести
