## What is Solomon's Keep?

Near the town of Dead Hawg, past the Grimwood, at the very PEAK of Mount Awful, there stands a crumbling tower of mortar and stone.

Deep within this foul edifice, the blackest necromancer of modern times, Solomon Dark, sits on his horrible throne.

As a near graduate of the Wizarding College, your final exam is to storm Solomon's Keep.  Dispatch the dark wizard, loot his evil possessions, unbind his horrific minions, and prove to your teachers once and for all that you're not as stupid as you look.

----

In Solomon's Keep, you move your wizard with one thumb, and fire magic spells with the other.  As you destroy enemies, you earn experience points.  Gain enough experience, and you'll gain a level, and can select new skills to help you ascend the tower.

Along the way you'll find gold and magic items.  Your helpful teachers are there to explain the ins and outs of wizarding, sell you a few useful items, and even give you a few tips to improve your skills.

Along the way you'll encounter Solomon's skeletons, zombies, imps, and more. You might even encounter an undead king, and Solomon's meticulously reconstructed maggot vomiting skeletal dragon.  

You'll have a chance to master 21 skills and wield over 50 magic, rare, and epic weapons.

With random dungeons and monsters, Solomon's Keep offers infinite replayability.  It's never the same game twice!

If you're fond of action RPGs, Solomon's Keep will satisfy your black heart.

### 5/5 — Amazing game!

*2026-07-10, version 4.76*

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

### 5/5 — Ich spiele das Spiel immer mal wieder

*2026-06-03, version 4.76*

Seit dem das Spiel raus gekommen ist spiele ich es immer mal wieder und finde es richtig gut, es gibt kein anderes Spiel welches den gleichen vibe hat wie dieses Spiel. 

Leider ist es mittlerweile schon „sehr alt“ es währe cool wenn der Entwickler mal eine erneuerte Version machen könnte

### 3/5 — This game is still great but needs to be optimized for new devices

*2026-05-24, version 4.76*

Makes my 17 get crazy hot. Didn’t used to happen on older phones when the game came out.

### 3/5 — A great game but lots of ads

*2026-03-19, version 4.76*

This is honestly a very good game. I have played it a lot! The only downside is that it turned into an ad machine. It never used to be this bad, but now there is an ad every screen move. I had 2 before even leaving the starting area to get into the game. It’s a shame to see the game fall this much. If the ads were a little more spaced out (maybe every other floor or so), I would easily restore the 5-star rating. (Solomon’s boneyard is also a solid game if you like this one!) I get making money, but maybe let my length of playtime be your moneymaker instead of forcing so many ads. That is just my opinion.

### 2/5 — Ads

*2026-02-15, version 4.76*

4 stars for gmeplay, 3 stars for bugs, 2 stars for constant ads

### 3/5 — Good classic game

*2025-12-07, version 4.76*

It’s a decent game that’s easy to catch on, only downside is that it does crash a lot when loading into the next floor or leaving the dungeon though the magic key, it can become easily frustrating because you lose all your progress prior to your last load in* decent game overall but not a fan of the crashing.

### 1/5 — Gutes Game , aber schwer enttäuscht !!

*2025-07-21, version 4.76*

Grafisch und auch sonst alles gut , ABER:
Items werden bei Benutzung des ingame cabinets GELÖSCHT !
Das ist sehr sehr ärgerlich und verdirbt den ganzen Spielspass. 
Daher nur 1 stern, soetwas darf es in einem Game nicht geben !!! Update: es wurden die "all skills 2+" und die "all skills 3+" rausgepatcht... Weiterhin gibt es KEINE Belohnung, wenn man alle Aufgaben geschafft hat. Hardcore Demigod ist nur mit Hurricane zu gewinnen.

### 3/5 — Nooo

*2025-07-13, version 4.76*

Me borraron mis progresos con la ultima actualización ☹️

### 5/5 — Please add controller support

*2025-06-18, version 4.76*

I love this game and it would be better if it had controller support

### 5/5 — Muhteşem

*2025-05-01, version 4.76*

Cok iyi bir oyundu keske gelistirilseydi
