Please!!! ### 4/5 — Update please *2023-07-27* I just saw this in App Store and thought I would like it but I can’t play it! UPDATE THE GAME ### 4/5 — Game not working on IOS 16+ *2023-04-07* Hi, I played this game a while ago and I really enjoyed it. I tried to download Stickman RPG III, and it said that the game needs to be updated to work on IOS 16 and above. If they could fix this issue, I would be really happy so that I could play the game again! Overall, the game was really fun when I was able to play it. ### 5/5 — Please update this *2021-06-11* For the love of god, please update this to work in iOS 14.6...I thought it would be safe to update to from 14.5 but Apple bricked the app, and there's nothing I can do about it... ### 5/5 — It’s fun *2021-05-30* Seems boring but I think it’s actually fun People reading this you don’t have to listen to me download it if you want ### 4/5 — Love Stickman rpg *2021-03-29, version 1.6* Simple and fun.

Simple and addictive! *2021-02-18, version 1.6* I love the Stickman RPG games, they are really simple - Mr. Sato has made an entire game out of grinding to get your character built up - and the leveling is just about right. I wish there were more... ### 5/5 — Fun and entertaining! *2020-12-26, version 1.6* Great fun. Level up your two characters. Buy weapons and armor And kill bosses. Good humor. Great villians.

Hit the blue button for continue cuz it's sounds like the button you're supposed to hit and when i saw it connecting to App Store to confirm purchase I tried to home button out of it. Stupid scan for purchase thing popped up a microsecond before and confirmed my purchase. Well that's apple's dumb design not this game but the purchase... That's right... ONE continue. Too much of a rip off, not going back for a second play. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2016-12-09* I can't even pass the first you can do better!! ### 1/5 — Disgrace *2016-10-01, version 1.6* This game has no action and it is boring as all hell...Totally would give 0 STARS if I could ### 1/5 — broken *2015-02-10, version 1.6* game shuts down after u beat the two reapers fix and ull get 5 stars ### 2/5 — Alright *2016-12-22, version 1.6* Fan of Stickman RPG I and II but 3 u can tell was just thrown together out of old code...oh well , 2 Was the best ### 3/5 — It seems like a fun game however I can’t play it *2023-07-06* I ask that you update it for it to work on the current iOS software, I was quite disappointed when I found that I couldn’t even open the app let alone play the game. However I am aware that it is unlikely for such a thing to occur-seeing as the last update was a decade ago. In kind regards, -No clouds are beautiful ### 3/5 — I can’t play it *2021-06-25, version 1.6* My iOS is too high 😭 ### 3/5 — Good But Needs Work *2018-01-29, version 1.6* So I beat the entire game, and although I enjoyed it, there are a number of things that I believe need to be changed in order to make the game more balanced and enjoyable to play. 1. Fix the auto button The auto battle is probably the most flawed aspect of this game. By sacrificing a portion of both character’s max Hp, you can automatically win a fight. This doesn’t sound so bad at first, but the mechanics behind it really need fixing. The game seems to calculate who wins an auto battle by simulating a battle between both sides (of course, this happens in an instant) in which both parties only use the normal attack command (it also seems to ignore speed). This is fine, but it overlooks one major thing; stat boosts. If you raise your stats or use the charge command, the buffs will be present throughout the auto battle, making it possible to cheese stronger enemies and grind lots of gold and experience to make the game far easier than intended. 2. Set the stat caps to 999 Really, I was shocked to discover that you can continue to raise your stats (attack, defense, speed) past 999. There isn’t a single enemy in the game that requires you to have stats that high to deal with, and ultimately it will make for an extremely boring 100% run that just involves hours of grinding. Hp can remain set at 99,999, and although I’m not sure what the Sp cap is, 9,999 would be a reasonable max. 3. Make speed affect turn order Speed is used in this game to check for accuracy, evasion, and flee rate. This is all fine, however turn order plays out in a fixed fashion. To make this game resemble other turn based RPGs, speed should determine who moves first on a given turn. 4. Introduce an enemy Compendium This would allow the player to keep track of enemy stats, as well as what certain enemies resist. This rewards thoughtful players, as they will have more information to base their strategies off of the next time they encounter a specific enemy. Other things: •After a certain point, there are pieces of defensive equipment from past areas that are recycled and given superior stats, though they retain the same name. This is okay, however it would make sense to give them slightly altered names to distance them from the original gear pieces (For example, the upgraded Kevlar Vest can be called the Kevlar Vest II or something along those lines) •The Gold Man uses the sound of a normal enemy when it is defeated, rather than that of a boss like all the other enemies featured in its level. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — please goro *2024-10-12* I will give anything to play this again 🙏 ### 5/5 — Please Update *2023-11-27* I used to love this game when I was younger, and when I tried to redownload it, I get a text saying that the developer has to update it so I'm unable to play it. I loved the story and the game play, so I really hope you see this and either update it or remaster it because this was one of my favorite RPG games and would love to play it again ### 5/5 — Possibly Stickman RPG IV in the works *2023-08-17* The games are obviously unplayable due to the IOS update. It might be cost effective if the developer continues the series. But, III is the most enjoyable game so far. Especially with customization of stats and cool looking bosses. I played it to death, now waiting for the game to be playable once again. One story ended and hopefully a new story will begin in the future. The only catch is that the game is so addictive that it is hard to put down. Thanks for developing such a great game. ### 5/5 — PLEASE MAKE THIS GANE WORK ON RECENT IOS UPDATES *2022-11-27* This game made my childhood but it doesn’t work on current iOS. Please update it soo it works 🙏🙏🙏 ### 5/5 — UPDATE *2022-10-22* PLEASE GORO IM BEGGING YOU PLEASE UPFATE IT ### 5/5 — Great game *2022-06-30, version 1.6* EASY TO PLAY HOPE THEY MAKE ANOTHER ONE ### 5/5 — Love this game *2022-02-04* Game was a big part of my childhood no lie ### 5/5 — NOOO *2022-01-14, version 1.6* NO I HAVE NOT SEEN THE ENDING BUT THEY SAID IT NEEDS TO BE UPDATED SO CLOSE ### 5/5 — I’m sad. *2021-12-12, version 1.6* The iPhone I’m playing on can’t play this game and it was one of my favs as a kid. I used to play this for like hours on end but now I can’t even play this game. Please update so I can play it again, that’d be very much appreciated. -Sincerely JosiahtheNeat. ### 5/5 — Update please *2021-06-29* I made it to stage 17 but I can’t play anymore oof --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
