### 4/5 — Glitch

*2026-03-12, version 3.92*

Love the game it’s completely awesome but here’s the thing after like 1-2 days it glitches out and I have to delete the app which resets my progress. I love this game and really wish I could keep playing it.

### 3/5 — where Magic Inventory

*2024-02-28, version 3.92*

Is there a bug or is the item removed? I cannot find magic inventory to buy in the perks shop.

### 3/5 — Restore purchases broken

*2023-09-12, version 3.92*

A very fun game, lets you endless waves with multiple different characters. 

But it is an older game and the “no Ads” purchase appears to be broken. Had paid for it and was loving this game, but it vanished one day and restoring purchases doesn’t work.

With the ads interrupting the game play, the enjoyment factor decreases a lot, preventing me from giving the rating it used to deserve.

### 5/5 — Parfait!

*2023-06-03, version 3.92*

Jeux parfait, j’y rejoue à chaque voyage dans l’avion n’ayant pas de wifi 

( manque la langue FR svp ! )

### 5/5 — 喜歡你們

*2023-06-01, version 3.92*

從10年前到現在，都很認真玩這款遊戲 希望未來還能再看到新的版本！你們超棒的！

### 5/5 — By far my favorite mobile game.

*2023-05-22, version 3.92*

I remember when I got this game years ago on my iPod touch and I immediately fell in love with it. It’s been more than 10 years and I still love this game and I hope it never leaves the AppStore.

### 3/5 — Request remote controller

*2023-04-25, version 3.92*

It would be even Better game

### 5/5 — Port this to the Nintendo switch!

*2023-02-10, version 3.92*

I would buy this and Solomon’s keep if it was on switch.

### 5/5 — Excellent !

*2023-01-09, version 3.92*

Aussi bon que son prédécesseur, avec une approche différente. Les 2 font la paire de jeux indispensable sur mon iPhone depuis une bonne décennie. Pourvu qu'ils ne soient pas supprimés de l'AppStore ...

### 4/5 — Love the game!

*2022-12-01, version 3.92*

I love both Solomon’s keep and boneyard! I would recommend this game to anyone. For anyone wanting to kill time this game is for you. 

One thing I have noticed is they haven’t done any events for double gold for ads since 2018. It would be nice if that could start happening again since it’s a grind for gold already.

### 5/5 — Thank you Raptisoft for keeping this game available

*2022-10-27, version 3.92*

I absolutely love this game and put quite some hours into it back in the day.  I originally downloaded this back in 2017-2018.  After all these years, I found it again and was so happy I could download it and play it again.  Thank you Raptisoft for not only creating this, but for keeping it going!  The fact that this still works on iOS 16 is amazing.

### 5/5 — Das beste Spiel aller Zeiten!

*2022-10-21, version 3.92*

Das beste Spiel aller Zeiten!

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2022-10-06, version 3.92*

Used to play this a lot when I was 14 on my iPod touch.

### 2/5 — Slowly lessened in appeal

*2022-08-17, version 3.92*

Game used to be awesome, an all time fave that I would easily come back to again and again, 7-8 years ago the game was fun, it had a lot going for it, great game.
A few years ago i play it again, awesome, they added new maps a few different things in the game, still greatly enjoyable even with ads.
Now, every level up is an ad, “watch ads for pitiful amounts of gold”, added an npc which was pretty much unnecessary, and now if you want to have more than 2 perks, unlike old Boneyard you just unlocked them at increasingly pricey intervals, it is now a shop where you have to reassign your perks EVERY ROUND, but you also have to rebuy some stupid tonic EVERY ROUND just to have more than 2 perks which, unless you consistently hit lvl 20 or above, will only ruin your early game experiences. What can I say, stereotypical really, throw in more ads or more reasons for people to potentially throw money at a game just to try and hurry the tediously unneeded aspects.

### 1/5 — 매직 인벤토리 어디갔냐

*2026-02-07, version 3.92*

내 반지 컬렉션이 왜 사라졌나 했더니 아예 매직인벤토리 스킬 자체가 사라졌네ㅡㅡ
반지 모으는 맛에 하는게임인데
반지 모으는걸 없애면 어떡하냐

### 1/5 — Devs are remotely manipulating the game

*2025-08-05, version 3.92*

This game has turned out to be a scam. It presents itself as skill based, but then you slowly start to realize that the devs are logging in remotely to alter your game. Even if you are offline, the difficulty adapts to your game playing, and no matter what path you choose as an advanced gamer, it’s just another gambling mechanic. It presents itself as if you level up and get to choose skills that will help you win, but you’ll find the game actively circumventing exactly what you need by giving you anything but that. When you start to think that buying permanent items in the shop will help you out, you’ll start to realize that they actually produce negative results, by giving you the thing you bought, but taking away other opportunities. For example, I spent 10,000 gold on “get more items and bonuses” and sure, I get a few rings every now and then, but the “bonuses” of level ups disappear entirely. You’ll only get quad damage every time, so in that regard, it’s a negative, and a scam. Ads for gold? Entirely inconsistent and a gamble, sometimes you get 100 gold, or 10,000k gold, and of course the ads are scam games being misrepresented as 4.9999 stars, and with no mention of in app purchases, but with the scam artist actors in them proclaiming how the game is entirely free, no purchase necessary. Right, like all microtransaction scam games ;). Next, your progress will get erased, and you’ll be forced to email customer service, because it’s a game they want to play by justifying that they hav customer service, by remotely erasing your progress. Restore purchases doesn’t work, because they want you to play their manipulative game. They don’t update this game because they don’t have to, they just log in remotely and change values for things, so in that regard it’s a scam. The gameplay is always intentionally inconsistent, with always just the right amount of mobs appearing, right when all you needed was that one thing to beat the game. Their other game Solomon’s keep is the only beatable game in that regard, I’ve actually beaten the keep, but Solomon’s boneyard is trying to make themselves like some legendary hard game, but it’s not even legitimate, it’s a scam, because they keep manipulating the values of everything remotely.

### 1/5 — 中文化、拜託

*2025-03-03, version 3.92*

能中文化就很好玩了

### 1/5 — Repurchase annoyance

*2024-05-16, version 3.92*

I’ve owned this game for years and am losing my patience with this… I’ve had to contact the developer every time I reinstall the app or install it on a new device. Ads come back on a game I purchased. Same thing for Solomons bone Yard. So sick of asking permission from a developer to use software I paid for. What happens when the app is no longer available on the App Store? Or the developer stops responding? Lame.

### 1/5 — I’ve played hundred of awful mobile games over the years

*2024-01-11, version 3.92*

And this EASILY takes the cake for the worst. Absolute garbage in every way

### 1/5 — Don’t not purchase anything in this game.

*2022-09-12, version 3.92*

I’ve had this game for years! The game used to be fun, now it’s a back and forth game when I’m bored with other games but, now they’ve added ads to it that you have to pay for to get rid of, which is annoying, I’ve payed for all the add ones and now they want more money. Now every time you level up an add pops up. Makes this game horrible, otherwise this game would be 5 star.

Also I want my purchases back!!!!!!

### 1/5 — They got greedy

*2022-07-19, version 3.92*

Every single aspect of the game has been changed to cost more and more gold. Nothing is permanent. You no longer permanently use perks you have to pay each run for perks you bought or rings you’ve earned. Everything costs gold and gold drop rates have decreased so that you have to purchase it.

### 1/5 — You guys lost a loyal customer

*2022-06-22, version 3.92*

You know why. I spent money I didn’t need to just to support you guys for making a great game. Now I have to start again? Ohn

### 1/5 — A developer stole my backpack

*2022-03-09, version 3.92*

My game progress has gone backwards since my backpack was stolen.  Not as fun and exciting anymore.  No more massive crazy onslaughts without having the capability to bulk up your powers.  Can’t put the power of the latest Apple devices to the test without a sea of foes.  BRING BACK THE BACKPACK.  Oh, and don’t charge me for it every time I want to use it.   If I find gold and get to keep it,  the same should be done with rings.  Please bring back the fun and joy to play this game.  
 
Backpack Please please please.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2021-04-26, version 3.92*

It was ok,but it deleted my old data all unlocked Wizards and I lost all gold and unlocked add ons how can I recover all my data and gold I had over 7 millions on goldcan you fix this bug this issue and

### 5/5 — Amazing game!

*2026-07-10, version 3.92*

Great game, very addictive. You should do one called "Solomon's Mines".

### 5/5 — Played this since iPhone 4!!!

*2026-06-20, version 3.92*

Hi dear developer, awesome timeless game! Hope you guys can update this game, willing to pay for it, pretty sure there’s a strong cult following for this all time classic! Playing this since iPhone 4 and now on the iPhone 17 PM! 👍

### 5/5 — Still One of the Best Games Out There

*2026-03-19, version 3.92*

I absolutely love this game—it’s incredibly fun and well made. It’s honestly so sad to see that there haven’t been any updates. Dev team, please come back. We miss this game!

### 5/5 — Timeless classic

*2026-01-09, version 3.92*

The game is relatively simple, yet effective. As well I really appreciate how it incorporates mangos into the plot 10/10

### 5/5 — Love love love

*2025-04-27, version 3.92*

I have played this game since my first smart phone, and every time I get a new one,  always re download it and start again! I love this game, it’s always fun and the progression system keeps you engaged!! I hope the developers can do an update and add some more great stuff to this game again! I would love that more than anything ❤️😍 thank you devs for this gem!!! 

With love! Matthew ❤️

### 5/5 — Toujours aussi bon 15 ans après

*2025-03-31, version 3.92*

J’avais complètement oublié ce jeu auquel je jouais quand j’avais 16 ans en 2010. Par hasard je suis retombé dessus à 31 ans et j’ai adoré, il n’a pas pris une ride 🥲

### 5/5 — Amazing !

*2024-03-23, version 3.92*

Un jeu de ouf mais on attends une suite depuis des années. J’ai poncé chacun des personnages, j’ai tous les anneaux. J’ai cherché en vain des jeux à la fois simples et jouissifs, c’est le seul que j’ai pu expérimenter. Dommage

### 5/5 — Notes you guys might not see

*2023-11-23, version 3.92*

I’ve been playing the game for years now, and the same things always come up, frost jet it amazing but the problem comes with the other skills. Every other skill has no way to deal with archers and playing wirh any character that u cant put chill wind on just means you'll die to archers. 

Passing 100,000 kills the game seems to glitch out after every wave making the waves take several minutes to transition making me just have to wait for some action

I dont think this one is an issue anymore but I did post this before… frost jet 25 seems to glitch out as damage doesnt increase past that

still leaving a 5 star just cuz i like the game that much

### 5/5 — Absolute banger of a game 😎

*2023-10-01, version 3.92*

A solid of decade of grinding,nostalgia hits. Best $22.00 spent on a game.

P.S. No need to rush though, hoping for the Solomon saga to continue.

- Solomon's Keep (Former Steam Greenlight)
- (The planned) Solomon's Keep Ultra Metal Edition

### 5/5 — Seriously NEEDS Controller Support

*2023-09-27, version 3.92*

I love this game but I detest having my fingers on the screen blocking my view. Also, with sensitive skin, constant pressure on the glass starts to hurt. I’ve played it less and less since it isn’t as pleasurable on my hands as it once used to be. PLEASE consider adding controller support since I am now playing other games I don’t love just to cut down on the pain.
