### 5/5 — Great old-style game

*2020-04-10, version 1.2.6*

If you’re a veteran of old-school dungeon crawlers of the 8-bit era, you should try this. No real background story, and it’s short, but so what? You’re a fighter guy, and you are there to fight monsters and snag loot — what else do you need to know? You don’t need a mini-map, as the game gives you location coordinates. Keep track of your HP, remember to upgrade your gear, and above all, have fun!

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2020-03-09, version 1.2.6*

Fun short game, I would have loved some chill background music

### 5/5 — Норм

*2020-02-03, version 1.2.6*

Коротенькая, часа на 1,5.
Немного однообразная, но мне зашла

### 5/5 — Great old school game

*2019-04-05, version 1.2.6*

Great game all together. I wish you guys would have kept up with the story and add more adventures and maps. It would be super cool. Loved what you did with this simple but fun game. Keep it up

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2019-02-07, version 1.2.6*

👍👍

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2018-12-23, version 1.2.6*

Found a gem!

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2018-11-07, version 1.2.6*

I needed a game to play when i was someplace and had to kill time, or when my gf was driving. Perfect. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Nice little rpg

*2018-10-13, version 1.2.6*

Been playing for a couple weeks off-and-on. It’s a cute little rpg reminiscent of something like the original Final Fantasy. Walk around the map, complete quests and fight random monsters. As you win, you go up levels, becoming stronger and gaining better gear. This game has all the staples.

### 5/5 — Hours of happiness for less than 4mb!!

*2018-10-02, version 1.2.6*

Hours of happiness for less than 4mb!! And is not necessary internet connection!!!

### 5/5 — GREAT OLDSCHOOL RPG

*2018-09-25, version 1.2.6*

If you are a fan of old Nintendo rpgs or even very old computer rpgs you will love this game. They even made a second one after this one with added features (map and exp counter that tells you how much until next level) I just want to say good work to the developers and thanks. Idk how hard it is to look into making an mmorpg phone game but this simple platform with friends would be great.

### 5/5 — Enjoyed playing

*2018-08-14, version 1.2.6*

Just a straight forward rpg game. Not too hard, but also fun with a nice simple storyline

### 5/5 — Great throwback to the classics

*2018-07-06, version 1.2.6*

Wonderful little RPG for fans of Final Fantasy on the NES or Dragon Warrior. Although not as deep or story driven, this little gem will have you wanting more by the time it’s finished. Wonderful job and looking forward to more installments and longer games!

### 5/5 — Hi

*2018-06-15, version 1.2.6*

I love the app which is why it’s five stars get it?! Alright just wanted to STOP in lol. This is Fri. BriFri

### 5/5 — Awesome Retro RPG game

*2018-04-16, version 1.2.6*

I enjoyed this game every much and I’m glad there is a second one. If the developers make any more games I will definitely play them.

### 5/5 — Great First Title Game Guys

*2018-02-10, version 1.2.6*

Ok, so there were a few annoying things, but when you do reach the end you realize this is a fist title release for these programmers. It’s a simple fun RPG... I thoroughly enjoyed it and now I’m downloading the sequel!

### 5/5 — Short and fun

*2018-01-24, version 1.2.6*

The story elements were engaging, and the need to stay in an area to level up made it a bit more challenging. I was surprised when it was over so soon, but it makes a great start to their game series.

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2018-01-23, version 1.2.6*

It’s so good

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Piece of crap

*2017-04-17, version 1.2.6*

This game was made by a drunk 8 year old. It looks like they made this game with an app on their phone.

### 2/5 — An uninspired diversion

*2017-03-07, version 1.2.6*

Saga RPG bills itself as a "retro" RPG. If anything, it indicates that without a story, interesting characters, or appealing graphics, the mechanics of "retro" RPGs boil down to level grinding and not much else.

### 2/5 — Save Feature inoperative

*2016-04-11, version 1.2.5*

It's a great game but on my device I couldn't save my game, pretty much making it unplayable.

### 3/5 — Old school

*2016-03-23, version 1.2.5*

Very basic but fun.  It would be nice to expand on this and there would be a ton of people playing it.  Moving the quit button and the advertisement banner would cut down on the mistaken typing and make it more enjoyable.

### 3/5 — Average

*2013-09-20, version 1.2.1*

It's okay, nothing really special.

### 4/5 — Nice short game. Would love more of it

*2025-07-29, version 1.2.8*

Awesome short-lived retro RPG. Please make player movement possible by holding down the direction button in the next game, or this one as well; my hand hurts 🙈. I'd love more games like this. 🤗

### 4/5 — Fun but too much grinding

*2019-07-03, version 1.2.6*

I love old RPGS and when there simple I wish this game was a little longer and had sound effects music, I would say the worst part of this game is not being able to hold to move but thumbs got tired from tapping so much and too much grinding but overall a fun experience and am excited to play the second one

### 4/5 — Cool little rpg

*2019-06-24*

Saga Rpg is a great little rpg to waste some time on if you enjoy stat checking and leveling up. The only complaint i have is the Buttons for everything action you can take in the game are all fairly small and close to each other, resulting in many misclicks.

### 4/5 — Love it but

*2017-07-24, version 1.2.6*

I personally loved the this game it has A cool retro style look and is fun to play. But I think it is too short. I beat it in A quarter of a day but it was fun though.

### 4/5 — Simple but fun

*2017-05-19, version 1.2.6*

It's what it says it is: really simple RPG. Quick (I beat it in a morning) and simple, but I enjoyed it. Even downloaded the next game in the series. If you like NES or SNES Final Fantasy or Dragon Warrior games, you'll like this.

### 5/5 — Holds up to the test of time

*2026-02-10, version 1.2.8*

Saga RPG and its sequel are Fantastic! Even over a decade later, these two bring back the old school RPG feel from the 90s. You get to explore with no handholding, adventure to find your next step, and find and fight enemies that'll happily chomp down your brains. I only wish the devs would come back and create more!

### 5/5 — Go forward

*2024-04-20, version 1.2.7*

You’re doing well, I suppose you know what we like

### 5/5 — Хорошая ретро рпг

*2023-06-24, version 1.2.7*

Было интересно исследовать и прокачивать героя. Однообразная, но при этом не надоедает. Коротенькая, но это неплохо, учитывая, что есть вторая часть. Очень классный лабиринт, его прохождение было самым завлекающим. Спасибо за игру!

### 5/5 — Nice little hack‘n‘slay

*2022-07-22, version 1.2.7*

Very basic hack‘n‘slay rpg: find gold, upgrade weapons and armour, level your char, defeat the dragon. Spoiler: There‘s no saga ;)

### 5/5 — Yes ignore the pay to win comments

*2021-05-06, version 1.2.7*

You don't have to buy max stats and beat the game. You could just download and start and beat the game without paying. Just a suggestion. Love it. Underrated gem.

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2021-04-13*

The Saga Series is AWESOME! I just wish they came back and made a third game.

This is some old school, well-done RPG amazingness! The journey is long, but when it's over, you'll be left longing for more.

It's rare that I rate an app 5 stars, but Saga and its sequel deserve it!

### 5/5 — Great fun!

*2021-03-24, version 1.2.6*

Was looking for an RPG like the old ones.  This game is great!   I am very pleased that there is a second one to download.  Thanks to the developers for creating an old style RPG.

### 5/5 — Неплохо

*2020-10-15, version 1.2.6*

Видно, что игра создавалась новичками, но она не лишена увлекательности. Дальнейших успехов разработчикам)

### 5/5 — Good game

*2020-08-04, version 1.2.6*

Wyvern gone offline nice with low mb xD

### 5/5 — No Frills Fun

*2020-06-23, version 1.2.6*

Very much a bare bones presentation, but well-executed and lots of fun. Ads are not intrusive particularly compared with many other free rpgs.
