### 4/5 — Need test flight

*2026-08-08, version v2.3*

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.

### 3/5 — Pokemon Giovanni

*2026-08-02, version v2.3*

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

### 4/5 — Good but don’t know how to save

*2026-07-29, version v2.3*

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?

### 2/5 — Crashing

*2026-06-29, version v2.3*

The good
The layout and hud of the map are nice.

The bad.
Not a single pokemon fan game I tried worked. Some would load then crash in the first few seconds. Most wouldn’t even pull up a screen before crashing. I tried atleast half a dozen of Xp rpg games. 
They work on desktop/PC but not on this app.
I was hopeful I could find a “iOS joiplay” equivalent. Sadly this isn’t it

### 3/5 — Accessing Save Files Shouldn’t Be This Difficult

*2026-06-27, version v2.3*

I’m currently play testing a fan game that’s being developed and wanted to download it on my phone so I could enjoy it on the go. As new patches to the game come out, I can’t seem to pass the old save to the new save. This wouldn’t be an issue if I could get to the save files and copy-paste before a standard .sav file, but for some reason this app doesn’t let you copy (or even have access) to save data. 


Even just trying to find exactly where my progress is saved is a massive pain and I can’t find anywhere to help me figure it out. The app seems to run fine otherwise, but if you need to update the version you’re playing, just accept that you’ll need to start over

### 2/5 — Saves don’t work

*2026-06-02, version v2.3*

The game told me this error code

Script 'PBExperience' line 136: ArgumentError occurred.

comparison of String with 6 failed

### 4/5 — 按键延迟略严重……？

*2026-05-30*

如题，VA游戏有点延迟灾难……但其他版本还好，总之还是可以用的！

### 2/5 — Freezes

*2026-05-30, version v2.3*

Pokemon Fire Ash freezes the game very badly, and there is no smoothness.

### 2/5 — Just Bought this and regret it immediately

*2026-05-27, version v2.3*

I tried to launch Pokemon hydro bliss on this and the game just crashes immediately upon launch everytime. Idk if this is just an issue with my game specifically or the entire app.

### 4/5 — App experience so far

*2026-05-27, version v2.3*

So far I’ve only been able to play pokemon comet and blooming beast yet unable to face. I have tried phoenix rising, insurgence, Realidea and pathways but can’t get them to work. Overall, it’s extremely impressive the dev was able up pull this off given the technical constraints. I look forward to seeing how far the dev can push this app. It’s a mixed bag with what games work but from what I’ve read the dev is pretty dedicated to improving this app. I look forward to seeing what they can do with this.

### 4/5 — Great but

*2026-05-18, version v2.3*

I ran into an issue where the screen orientation flips upside down. I can’t unflip and now whenever I play with my controller plugged (razor kishi) in it’s upside down. Aside from the tho no complaints

### 3/5 — Spiel stürzt ab

*2026-05-15*

Script 'SpriteWindow' line 1805: Errno::EISDIR occurred.

Is a directory @ io_fread - Graphics/Autotiles/

Wenn ich versuche das Spiel Pokémon Z fangame zu starten kommt immer dieser Fehler. Gibt es ein Weg dies zu beheben ?

**Developer response:** Please contact me via feedback section. Come to my discord and access testflight version. this game is playable in testflight version.

### 4/5 — 还不是很好用

*2026-05-14*

解压游戏的速度太慢了，内置控制台功能太少了，没有传送剧情节点等功能，还有什么时候加个翻译功能啊

### 4/5 — 不错

*2026-05-13*

有bug，导入失败，要自己改文件，但总体不错，继续更新吧

### 2/5 — 按键有问题

*2026-05-13*

有时候要按好几下才有用

### 2/5 — Needs a lot of work

*2026-05-12, version v2.3*

I purchased this hoping to be able to use it and have some sort of emulation similar to Androids Joiplay, but I’m not getting much use out of it at all. So many games crash upon launch, and the ones that do work the buttons don’t register half the time and I’m forced to press Enter a thousand times to get through one menu. I hope there’s more to come from this app because right now it’s not worth the money.

### 4/5 — Trouble with the app crashing when going past the start new game

*2026-05-11, version v2.3*

This app seems awesome, just having an issue with my game crashing before I can even play. Please help!!!!

### 1/5 — Paid for it and when I tried to use it I can’t get any Pokemon rpgmaker xp games to work

*2026-07-27, version v2.3*

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

### 1/5 — RPGXP Game Doesn’t Work

*2026-07-17, version v2.3*

Downloaded this to play an RPG-XP file game, doesn’t work. Discord for help link doesn’t work either. Would definitely be happy to remove this review or even give it 5 stars if this is fixed, but until then yeah I feel like I just got false advertised to since it says “Run XP, VX, MV & MZ Games

### 1/5 — Por favor

*2026-07-01, version v2.3*

sinceramente compré y pagué todo lo que había que pagar porque tenía la esperanza de que podría jugar mis juegos tranquilamente, pero ya van 4 meses de la última actualización y no dan señales de que vuelvan a mejorarla siento que fue una pérdida de tiempo gracias por no ayudar y quedar con un producto de mierda, no corre ningún juego bien

### 1/5 — Decay doesn’t work at all

*2026-07-01, version v2.3*

No version of Pokémon Decay will work. The map doesn’t load. It appears to be a never ending battle background while npcs are still present.

### 1/5 — No

*2026-06-04*

No games load always

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly

*2026-05-09, version v2.3*

I have never written a review for any app before but this 7 dollar app doesn't work at all.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2026-04-25, version v2.3*

Anytime I try to run an XP game for example Pokemon Z, the game crashes and shows an error. I can’t use the app I paid $7 for…

### 1/5 — Save

*2026-04-23, version v2.3*

I opened up Pokémon extreme epsilon and I’m not able to save it for some reason, tried multiple times.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2026-04-20, version v2.3*

Crashed on both Infinite Fusion & Pokemon Z. Not sure what games are supposed to be playable with this, but it’d be helpful if there’s a list somewhere. It is not a great experience to be downloading GB’s of games in a format this supposedly supports just to have them crash at support. Overall cannot recommend.

### 1/5 — Too Good To Be True I Guess…

*2026-04-18, version v2.3*

I’ve been wanting to play Pokemon fan games, but can’t be tied to my pc. I thought this would be an awesome upgrade to my gaming, but I was wrong. 
The games are constantly crashing upon loading in, or the app itself just up and quits on me. 
Save your $7 and figure something else out. I paid for it, so I’ll check back with updates and see if it gets better, but for now it’s a digital paperweight.

### 5/5 — Cool app but an issue I wanted to show you

*2026-07-25, version v2.3*

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!

### 5/5 — It works

*2026-07-21, version v2.3*

It works, isn’t hard to use.

### 5/5 — The best emulator

*2026-07-17, version v2.3*

I really like that it emulates every game without any issues, and everything is always stable. The controls and settings are very user-friendly. I've tried the beta version and can't wait to see the full release.

### 5/5 — Developer is A+ Tier

*2026-07-05, version v2.3*

Firstly, this review started as a four star stating that I wanted to love the game, stated the issues with the games I was playing, the developer emailed me, and gave me what I needed to play a game I’ve been dreaming of playing for years. This app is a must have, as I think are any apps that this dev runs.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2026-05-25, version v2.3*

I have been playing blacksouls (an rpg maker vx game) and I’ve been able to finish the game twice and get two different endings, I’ve also started playing blacksouls 2 and it works perfectly, I hope in the next update we might get some slight bug fixes (fix some crashing) but even the crashing is very try minimal, it has only crashed once for me and I’ve been using it for a month now, 10/10, I recommend.

### 5/5 — 良い

*2026-05-23*

やりたかったツクール製ゲームを今のところ全て遊べています。このアプリをもっと早く知りたかった…

### 5/5 — Good Emulator

*2026-05-16, version v2.3*

Active Dev, continually working to improve the system and fix issues. Highly recommend

### 5/5 — 买这款软件完全是…

*2026-05-14*

买这款软件完全是因为作者说了一句会把mtool AI翻译功能加上的 已经在计划书了 还没用过 先打五星再说

### 5/5 — Отлично

*2026-05-10*

Наконец-то можно поиграть в rpg maker игры на яблоках, надеюсь разработчик не забросит приложение👍

### 5/5 — 使用体验目前来看确实很不错

*2026-05-07*

虽然有点小贵，但是体验确实可以，至少rpg的那几个游戏引擎基本都支持了，能把控制台的功能再丰富一下就更好了
