I wish there was more passionate old school rpg makers like this guy
thankyou for this
Amazing RPG
I love classic RPGs like dungeon master, bards tale, Grimrock. This game was amazing. Just finished the main game and the expansion today. Entertained me for months. Thank you for creating this game. Much appreciated.
Dungeon Crawler RPG
A very fun, old school style, RPG. So far it’s a blast! Worth buying.
Love it
Any turn based jrpg/roguelike/dungeon crawler with retro graphics is a must buy for me. Couldn’t get it faster. Really well done only thing I wish the direction arrows didn’t cover information but that’s extremely petty and no big deal. I do wish I had more explanation and little guidance on classes and how it all works because every game is different. Buy it!

Thank you very much! Drag and drop the arrows from the upper right to any place where you like, this might help. For more information visit the wiki or the discord. Regards, Mario.
No go
It’s only 3 bucks but grab a coffee instead .
Endlich ohne Abstürze beim Kaufen
Das Spiel ist altbacken, nun das bin ich auch. Bisher konnte man Zubehör mit absoluter Sicherheit nur mit Abstürzen des Spiels tätigen. Die Herausforderung, kurz vorher den Shop verlassen und Speichern. Dann ging’s von von vorne los.
Kaufen kann man mittels der beim Kämpfen erbeuteter Münzen zum Gegenstände die man selber verwendet oder verkauft, im Shop.
Schade nur das kein weiteres Level kommt. Sicher würde ich es Kaufen, denn Optionen gibts reichlich im Spiel. Das mache Dinge nur zu lösen waren wenn man Spiele noch vom PC her kennt ist schade, aber wozu gibts denn ne Suchmaschine.
Ach die Hilfe ist auch wieder sinnvoll verlinkt.

Vielen Dank! Beste Grüße, Mario.
Truly spectacular
What is better than exploring a vast world with a party of adventurers including a minstrel playing magical songs?
Classic Fantasy RPG Experience
I love this game. As a fan of the first Bard’s Tale, I was hoping to rediscover that experience that was so engulfing when I was younger. Silversword did exactly that! I found the gameplay easy to handle. The graphics are cool and the dungeons are challenging. There is a fair amount of grinding (like every decent RPG) but not too excessive. Can’t recommend this one enough.
One last request: Mario - make more, please!! I’m pretty sure the “Dragons” expansion was leading to another challenge (see the Forgotten Isles map). Please make more content!!! Thanks.

Thank you very much for your kind words 😀 best regards, Mario
Absolutely love it
The most entertaining game I’ve played on the iPad. It’s really similar to old Bard’s tale games and has a depth of play that I’ve never seen on an iOS game. The extra $3 for the compendium is well worth it to support the developer and encourage more games like this.
Another ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ review
I spent two hours crawling through the App Store looking for a good dungeon crawler and couldn’t believe Silversword was way down at 140-something! I’ve reviewed Silversword before, but Apple asked me to review it again, so here goes: BEST MONEY I EVER SPENT AT THE APP STORE! Look, I see the appeal of a couple of the games above it, like Baldur's Gate, but all of them are too dark, with overly complicated interfaces and show you your characters from above. Silversword's graphics are simple but well designed, the controls are well designed, and you see things from your own point of view (first person). It’s obvious that the developer plays the game himself! It costs a cup of coffee, unlike some of the others — a great value, and no big deal if you decide you don’t like it. So buy it!!

Old School Game
This RPG is one of the best I’ve played in in a long time. Well developed, very interesting, fun to play. I really like the idea of a multiple Charectors to develope just like the old Great rpgs that are gone. I enjoy playing it.
Shop Crashing
Every time I try to go to the Shop, the app immediately crashes. Help.
Great Game
I grew up playing computer games in the 80s. This game brought back great memories. Very enjoyable.
Excellent Old School RPG Fun
Lovingly recrafted game style from a bygone era. Not just for those who have played Bard's Tale but anyone who appreciates a D&D style build a party, kill the monsters, loot and level up cycle.
Maps are well designed with plenty of exploring to do and secrets to find. A very charming nostalgic throwback to 80s and 90s du goon explorers.
(Can't get the link to the item list in the Compendium to work though so currently sitting on a few limited use items I haven't figured out when to use yet...adds to the mystery I suppose)

Amazing game!
For anyone that ever buys gold from the shop check your characters inventory for a bag of gold containing what ever amount you bought. Use the item and you now have your gold. I’m sure there is probably something that tells you to do this but I over looked it. As for the game gold isn’t really something you need to buy I just had a bad encounter with 7 skeletons after starting and my rock crawler died. I didn’t want to spend all my gold getting a res so I bought a bag of gold. Completely addicted to this game bought the expansion, the compendium, large storage expansion and the bank transfer. I’m all set (and I’m 9,500 gold richer after the res of my rock crawler). This game is absolutely amazing! Barely starting out and I’m already finding hidden things! 100 hours? I have a feeling it will be a lot more then that for me! This game, Dungeons of Chaos, The Quest (and expansions), Quest Lord , Pathos and Lootbox are my favorites for mobile.

Everything I hoped and more!
When I was a kid, I played bards tale on my Commodore. This game is better than that. It is really addictive. I love it so much. Thank you!
Viel RPG für wenig Geld
Mehr RPG gibt’s glaube ich nirgends für so wenige Euros.
Teilweise echt herausfordernd, aber im Forum gibt’s zum Glück Walkthroughs.
Habe gerade die Erweiterung beendet (und wirklich lange gebraucht), es war großartig! Danke dafür!

Vielen herzlichen Dank! :-) Beste Grüße, Mario.
Great vintage RPG look and feel…
I love this game. It definitely has the old school Bard’s Tale I look and feel. The gameplay is challenging but not overwhelming. The dungeons are fun and a bit tricky. You do have to grind sometimes to level up but not to an annoying level. You don’t have to buy anything to finish the game but some of the in-game purchases are helpful and inexpensive. The expansion is just as good, with a new class and new skills to learn, thus keeping the gameplay fresh. I know I sound like president of the Silversword fan club but this game is a ton of fun. Wish there were additional expansions. Thanks!

Not worth it
That little window is actually the whole amount of world you see it doesn't get any bigger, that text screen is usually just empty. I deleted it after playing five minutes.
Such a great game, again and again!
If you enjoy Dungeons and Dragons, Wizardry, The Bard’s Tale and similar, you will LOVE Silversword! I start a new game every year, just to replay with different character choices and strategies…and I have been playing this on and off for 11 years! Terrific story, awesome game mechanics, and amazing journey support from forums moderated by the developer! I wish a million people played this, so we could support the developer to make a follow up or another expansion! My dream would be this game allows for multiple players to play online together…one day Mario…get it and start playing - you will love it!
