### 5/5 — Fantastic game

*2026-02-02*

Runs beautiful on my iPad 2025, love the updated graphics and the fact you can change them in game with push of button. The fact you get R-Type 1 and 2 in this package is a bargain price and would recommend this to anyone who love shoot em ups

### 4/5 — Gaming Memories

*2025-07-03*

Love the game. 
Please add controller support. 
The only way to play R-Type at the beginning and how I like to play it is with a joystick! Go play the Turbographx 16 R-Type to figure out what is missing...

### 3/5 — Macで起動できるが・・・

*2025-03-10*

タイトルの続き
Macで起動可能　だが　元はiPad　iPhone用
つまりは

基本
iPadやiPhoneの　タッチパネルで操作する

Macの場合
トラックパッドでドラッグして　遊ぶしかない
というか　事実上　楽しくは　遊べない

わかってたら　買わなかった

コントローラーで　遊べたら　⭐️５つで
素晴らしい　ゲームの様ではある

操作で　まぁ　⭐️２つ３つ
事実上⭐️ つかない　けどね

まともにプレイできないから

ゲームそのものと　プレイできないので
この星にしました

同じ環境の方に　参考になると　良いですね　TvT)/

### 1/5 — Elgallego774$

*2024-12-12*

Gran juego pero los controles tapas todo con el dedo

### 2/5 — 誤作動ばかり

*2024-04-18*

チャージ中は誤作動ばかり起きる。ワープしたり動かなくなったり。

動作に不具合があってはゲームが成り立たない。

### 5/5 — 画像がだいぶいい。

*2023-07-02*

暇があればやりたいけど、しばらくやってない。でもいつでも入れておきたいゲーム。
難易度は5ステージ辺りからかなり難しい。

### 2/5 — Doesn’t have controller support

*2023-05-25*

Game seems good from what I can tell, but the lack of controller support means I definitely regret buying this.

### 1/5 — Control

*2023-04-29*

It would make this game experience better if it was possible to a controller pad of some sort graphics are ace though

### 3/5 — 十字キー

*2023-02-03*

つーかフツーに十字キー実装しろよ
操作しにくい

### 4/5 — カジュアルに遊べます！

*2022-10-09*

あの激ムズシューティング「R-TYPEⅡ」までも、ヌルシュー的アレンジで遊べます‼︎
スピードと無限残機潰しゴリ押しで誰でもラスボスもおがめます‼︎
今のところゲームコントローラーで遊べないのが残念ですが、お手軽にこの難物を体験したい人には最高じゃないでしょうか。
かつてのゲームキッズのリハビリにも多分有効です。
Ⅰの6面とかⅡの5面はかなり緻密なパターンを作っていかないと面白さが伝わりません。かなりの地獄ですが、やってみる価値は大いにあります。
