### 4/5 — Great game, some holes

*2026-04-15*

I love the Tower of Fortune games- challenging, fun design, and some aspect of puzzle solving involved. Play carefully as this game can really be punishing if you make mistakes. I like playing through all the side stories, but a few of them do not work. A couple suggestions for the developer to improve this game specifically:

-gold is very hard to earn on the first couple of floors- maybe adjust the gold output early to reduce some of the grinding early in the game.
-in the slums, I couldn’t figure on how to get the painting from the old lady without attacking her- I suspect it has something to do with the monkey vendor and the characters pursuing him, a mechanic that also seems to not work.
-the sick girl in the pink palace doesn’t seem to be connected to anything. The game hints at a way of helping her, but does not provide any means of doing so.
-black root only triggers if you dust the urns between midnight and dawn, he will not spawn if you return during the window in which he is supposed to spawn.

There may be other things, but those were the main ones I came across. I loved the game otherwise and can’t wait to check out all the endings!

### 5/5 — Completely underrated

*2025-09-01*

The tower of fortune Games have always had a special place in my heart. I used to play these up and down so many years ago but that doesn’t change the fact that I still constantly play these games again, whenever I have the chance. Huge props to the creator/s. I am looking forward to more of your content, it’s always a blast to try out your games, with the ToF series crowning it off. Absolute legend

### 1/5 — Very bad game

*2024-07-02, version 1.0.16*

Unfortunately the game is very bad balanced. You have absolutely not 50/50 chances for a good outcome. But you have a lot of donation possibility. Just hack the game and play like that. This is the only way to get joy from this piece of game design.

### 5/5 — Ever a fan

*2024-06-22, version 1.0.16*

Really enjoyed my time with Game Stew games. Been a fan for years.

### 3/5 — Needs update for newer iOS

*2024-03-14*

I would give this app 5 stars, but it never saves. It always restarts when I come back to it like it needs an update or something

### 4/5 — 전작보단 그렇지만

*2024-01-28*

그래도 재미있어요.

### 1/5 — Poorly scaled, tedious game play

*2023-02-21*

This installment strays further from the idea they’ve attempted to apply 4 times now without success. Added difficulty, in app purchase push, slow game play…. 4/4 hard passes in this letdown of a series. Shame, the idea is galaxies away from it’s implementations.

### 5/5 — Smart addictive

*2022-10-03*

Perfect for phone. Good on the devs

### 5/5 — bug found

*2022-09-27*

Why the skill final damage received always-2 even upgraded to level 3

### 5/5 — Big fan of the series

*2022-09-13*

Played the first 2 bought the bundle plan on trying the 4th after finishing this one. Be wary the game does have permadeath if you die you lose your items and start fresh gold stays run to run though. Stay in the prison as long as possible, visit the burning stake and mercy kill the prisoner once a day, you can get VIP passes for free, and do not kill the beast in the skull gate on floor 1 to obtain an ally. There’s really no reason to spend real dollars on the game after the initial purchase. If anything an excess of gold before your character is properly leveled tricks you into a false sense of confidence in your character and will lead you into an early grave.
