Re:END is a laid-back, top-down solo-mode RPG, that feels like those great MMOs from the good old days, RE:END features simple smartphone controls and an in-depth system with leveling, reincarnation, pets, equipment upgrades, an arena, ingredients, and more! Experience an RPG with all the elements that made MMORPGs from the good old days (late 2000s) so great, right from your smartphone. ▼Leveling and Reincarnation What would an MMO be without leveling! Nothing beats the feeling of overcoming adversity, discovering new and better ways to farm exp, and growing stronger with each level. Assign stat points each time you level up, respec and reincarnate. Grow stronger, and build your character your way. ▼Collecting Ingredients and Upgrading Weapons Collect ingredients to improve your equipment by defeating powerful monsters and fishing. Fight stronger monsters, face new challenges and prepare for the next power spike! ▼Pets All enemies can join you, even bosses (some arena monsters are off limits)! There can be as little as a 0.3% chance that some enemies will join you when defeated. The odds may be slim, but that feeling of payoff when it happens is incredible! ## Key features - Leveling and Reincarnation - Stat Point Assignment - Ingredient Collection - Equipment Upgrading - Pet Recruitment (including bosses) - Arena Battles ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | crystal 10 | $0.99 | one-time | | crystal 55 | $4.99 | one-time | | crystal 180 | $14.99 | one-time | | crystal 500 | $29.99 | one-time | | crystal 3000 | $118.99 | one-time | | crystal 1200 | $59.99 | one-time | ## What do users think of Re?

While I may be young, I grew up playing the Nintendo 1985, game boy, and other stuff like that. I loved how this game really gave me that retro feel. Despite this being an RPG game, it feels more like a chill isekai game I suppose? You start off really slow, but if you keep up playing you will be playing for hours on end trying to reach different goals. There is a very fleshed out wiki for this game if you js search “re end wiki”. I hope y’all make the good decision of playing this game. I hope y’all will all end up like me, staying up all night playing this game and stuff! ### 5/5 — Sick *2026-05-05, version 3.4.0* Love it play it ### 5/5 — Indescribably addictive, totally unique. Feels like a Zork moment *2026-03-29, version 3.4.0* Totally unique game. The best part of playing was not knowing what to do. Game really doesn’t have a lot of walkthrough info out there. It made it sublime. Like playing Zork in the 1980s. You just had to figure it out. So satisfying. I’m level 180 or so before I finally said too much grind. Played for a solid year. Every day. Game needs a save slot option. Otherwise? Perfect. Update in 2026. Every game I have played in 2 years since putting this down has paled in comparison to this game. The potential of this game! Please make more! So satisfying this game. Update March 2026. I can’t recommend this game enough. There is nothing like it. Re:lost is great too if you need another suggestion. ### 2/5 — Hi *2026-03-22, version 3.4.0* What’s happened to the auto collect when I kill an enemy only the money gets vacuumed up but I have to walk over the materials to pick them up now is this a bug or did you patch it would like to know because if I can’t auto farm anymore I’m gonna quit the game ### 5/5 — Indescribably addictive *2026-03-15* Totally unique game.

So satisfying this game. ### 5/5 — Just plain nostalgic fun *2026-02-09, version 3.4.0* This game feels great to play, it’s cute and has a great pace of progression. There’s a good variety of environments and monsters, and the spells are super cool. The only ads are passive, no popups or videos which is awesome. The only thing to be desired is a bit more lore, but great game in general! ### 5/5 — Nice *2025-11-23, version 3.4.0* Great game for mobile. ### 4/5 — Not bad. Its fun *2025-10-05, version 3.4.0* It's simple and fun. A lot more could be explained, but I'm getting by. I wish it had multiplayer options. Pets also need some work they're cool but very slow and weak ## Frequently asked questions about Re ### What kind of game is Re:END?
