Reignited Review

Jagex reignited my passion for expressing my dissatisfaction with terrible business models. DO NOT PAY FOR ANY JAGEX GAMES! The development team has changed. They’re skin walkers in the flayed corpse of what’s left of a 27 year old developer. The current developers are liars and thieves.

Bad Management

The company does anything it can to make the game worse as time goes on, and then they will punish you for sticking around.

A evil decision

Jagex the developers of RuneScape refuse to listen to their players. Their player support is horrible and they plan to charge more for better player support and better account security all things that should be free. Now they want to make a new game mode with a separate economy and player base that the current players will not be able to interact with each other killing off the loyal players some of which have 15-25 years of experience.

Review will stay like this until something changes.

Awesome game!

I started playing this game when I was just a kid.
Still until this day I somehow always find myself coming back for more! All the A1’s from day 1 know what I’m talking about.

Play it, -2026

Hello

The game keeps crashing so I’m going to stay with osrs

Great Game

Very good game I converted from rs2 to rs3 with my main and ended it there and which was very sad about afterwards. Anyway they should bring back the keys to make leveling alot easier and more fun . Would definitely come back for the keys. Thanks again RS you are great! :)

Crashing

App constantly crashes. I’ll just be walking to somewhere and it’ll close

Iron Woman Modus , das Spiel gefällt mir wirklich ausgezeichnet.

Ich habe auf der freien (kostenlosen) Welt begonnen, auch dort gibt es schon viel zu lernen und zu entdecken. Den Iron Modus habe ich gewählt, weil ich mich wirklich von Beginn an „ hocharbeiten „ und lernen wollte. Teure Ausrüstung kaufen und dann spielen kann jeder. Eine Sache aber verstehe ich nicht, warum kann man auf dem Markt auch nichts verkaufen? Das ich dort keine Ausrüstung kaufen kann ist ja von mir so gewollt, Bonds könnte man kaufen, nur ohne das wir etwas verkaufen können kann man sich so viel Geld entweder nie oder aber erst ab einem sehr hohen Lvl verdienen. Das ist schade, hier wird der Iron Modus benachteiligt. Dafür gibt es von mir einen Stern Abzug.

Allocate your time elsewhere

I have played this game for as long as I can remember, achieved maximum XP and many other feats. I come here to say, this company doesn’t care about you or issues you may face. Support is non existent unless it is financially related. You will spend hours,days,months,years on this game and you might enjoy it but then one day you’ll encounter a bug in game and it’ll halt everything, you’ll reach out to support/jmods on every platform imaginable, report your issues in game in an attempt to get your bug fixed and you will not get seen or heard.

Finally after a month of reaching out you’ll get some kind of generic answer from them “we’ll look into it” nothing more, no update on the situation, no potential timeline, just left in the dark. If this game won’t provide basic support for issues in game I suggest staying far away. You’ll just end up sinking so many hours into this game that could be better spent elsewhere

Love the direction

Been playing since 06. Game isn’t perfect but has grown. It’s a game that u can grow with in an imaginary world with your character. And level up/play how ever u want.

Convenient

Great way to play RS when on the go, at work, or when away from the computer. Combat is clunky on mobile - typically i’ll do some skilling. Mobile drains the life out of your battery!

Best mobile MMORPG

You can not get a better mobile/pc mmorpg outside of this IP. I’ve played this game for 25 years, I still haven’t touched every slice of content this game can provide. It’s nice is the game isn’t leaving you behind with each new update, eventually you get there and it feels so good even if your 20 years to late. The game play has improved, p2w is at a minimum, constant updates to the game now. 5/5 stars. Thank you Jagex

Giant waste of time 10/10

Great

App is decent. The game is great

Amazing game

Played it as a kid glad to get back in it 8 years later they added the mobile version and it works very good in my iPhone 13 and most other devices I been on

Best MMORPG

Osrs is cool but RS3 has true mmo mechanics inside combat, real rotations, titles you earn through challenging boss fights. This is the game to play.

Forced update

You’ve forced an update with the mobile client, but the update wasn’t live on the App Store.

Give it a try!

I think this is a wonderfully made game. I play a lot of mobile, doing easier laid back task. When I do get a chance to play on the PC it’s game on! Finally get to try some harder bosses or can handle some real “hands on” kind of task!

Performance and Power

Love RS and while mobile definitely isn’t the ideal way to play, it’s wonderful to have a means to open the game up when I’m out and about to do some simpler tasks. The only real issues I have is that the game is a black hole for power and even on the lowest graphical settings, it can cause the phone to heat up pretty hard. Also sometimes tanks in frame rate at seemingly random, though usually for a few seconds at a time or in a particularly dense area. Now I’m not using the most up to date phone, but it’s still an issue that can make it a bit harder go justify keeping the game running for more than a few minutes at a time.

Another complaint that may partially be my device, but menu navigation can often feel sticky, out of sync, or unresponsive. Something that I’d like is to have sliding on the screen to not confirm an input like crafting something (though this could be a setting I didn’t notice, I admittedly play this version a fraction as much as on PC).
