This is a horrible emulator

This is not a good emulator at all it’s meant to help run PC games but I couldn’t play anything on it without it crashing it will always crash if you try to play PC rom’s on it because iPhone’s just aren’t made to run PC games so if you try it just won’t work if someone actually gets a rom to work on here I will be very surprised

Fantastic for pokemon fan made games

Just finished playing Pokemon infinite fusions on my ipad with this app, and had such a blast!! Not all games will work, but I really appreciate the developer for making it possible in the first place!!

Really excited for future updates!!!!

Amazing App

Has been a game changer for playing Pokémon Fangames on my phone. Any bugs or issues have been fixed really quickly and the developer is always interacting and providing excellent support.

Active Developer striving to make a Great App

I’ve used this for half a year at this point. The version of the app on the App Store is outdated, but the dev’s been continuously updating it on TestFlight. They’ve been pushing for a new update on the App Store for a while, but they’ve been having trouble with it, but not without to show for that time.

Brilliant Dev; Work in-progress

This app is ambitious and is the best at what it does. Han, the developer, is incredibly talented and works on improving the app constantly. I’ve been able to play through multiple games with little-no bugs. I have used the app’s Discord server for recommendations on games that are fully playable.

Does not work

Seems to only work with one game I have played Pokemon wild lands but this gym of mine and pretty much everything else I have downloaded causes it to crash immediately

Crashes but hopeful

I understand this is relatively still a work in progress but certain XP games especially Pokemon ones continue to crash… I’m hopeful that this will eventually be fixed … keep up the hard work a RPG player for iOS is definitely what iPhone users need

Can’t find working games

I’ve tried to play 3 different games now and none have worked, but for various reasons. One had major performance issues and couldn’t save the game, one crashed every time I opened the pause menu, and one couldn’t even be opened without crashing. Maybe some games will work, but at this point it doesn’t feel worth the money spent to try and hunt down playable games

Broken controls

On 18 Pro Max and IOS27, was hoping this would be good especially as I paid for it but half the buttons are unresponsive 90% of the time I think because of a polling issue that makes the game only check if you’ve pressed the button with a short frame window. Meaning the D-Pad is fine but if you want to actually press yes or no or Z or B etc. you have to hold down the button and wait for it to register. That’s just not gonna work. Let alone ArkRPG doesn’t have this problem, but also lets you use both touchscreen and buttons at the same time. I tested 2 MV types games and also didn’t notice performance being much better on this app even though it took 10x as long to import the game. If these issues are fixed one day then we’ll see but I’m just gonna get a refund

Crash and save

Some Pokémon fangame crash as soon as you want to start the game and for the game that actually work you can’t even make a save you have to restart every time.

The Developer haven't give up on this emulator

Today i bought the emulator but was having a few errors. Then i went to TestFlight to download and test the beta version and wow im really impress. This emulator is gonna be one of the best in app store specially if you are looking to play pokemon fan games on your iphone

Gets the job done, minus some issues

It works, some custom scripts for some xp games dont work properly but it works well enough

Good system almost perfect

My main concern is that it doesn’t run Pokémon insurgence. It seems to crash due to the massive amounts of scripts. Hoping for an update in the future.

I love it but I need help

I can’t seem to find how to load saves the games I’ve been playing and everything is just so confusing

Idk it’s a start I guess

I paid for this app bc I was excited to play Pokémon solar eclipse on my iPad since it doesn’t work on delta. It runs super laggy with button input lag and freezing in between frames while simply walking and then the settings say it backups your saves and I went through the intro twice and saved and the save file didn’t hold both times so I’m kinda pretty much done with this app. Maybe they’ll iron out the performance issues soon but it’s not there yet.

Need test flight

Seems great so far with infinite fusion! But it cannot open up my save files and restarts the game like none exist. I heard I need the test flight to fix this.

Pokemon Giovanni

Buttons don’t work pretty often acting like it’s lagging but it’s not stuck on a box conversation for minutes at a time due to buttons not registering

Good but don’t know how to save

I was playing a rom hack of pokemon void and I wanted to save the game, so I used the in game save, and closed out the app. So now my progress is gone and I don’t know how to fix it. Can the devs help?

Paid for it and when I tried to use it I can’t get any Pokemon rpgmaker xp games to work

I was excited for it but always says there’s an issue reading character files but i don’t see and can’t find what I’m supposed to fix

Cool app but an issue I wanted to show you

Pokémon Reborn 19.5.0 crashes on launch in RPGPlayer v2.3. The game imports successfully and the XP RTP is installed, but after a brief black screen it crashes with a LoadError: cannot load such file -- timeout. Seems to be a compatibility issue rather than an import or RTP issue. Please investigate. I don’t know if it’s a reborn specific issue, but I wanted to bring it to your attention as I see you’re dedicated to the wellbeing of the app. Thank you!
