Great presentation, repetitive gameplay
Back in the day with so few choices for solo roleplay, adventure books seemed like a way to experience an RPG when there was no D&D game happening. Today there are so many better solo options to scratch the RPG itch, so why play a trial and error adventure game with somewhat random combat? Nostalgia perhaps, but replaying the same adventure over and over trying to remember the right moves is exactly the downside of those adventure books that modern tech should be used to overcome, not enshrine. Game books were tiresome then, and now it is no different, except for the fact that there are so many way better game choices out there. Cool graphics cannot hide very mediocre gameplay. Time better spent elsewhere.

For me it’s perfect
It works fine, game is quite nice and graphics is nice. The disadvantage of the game is that its too short. Further story would be a good choice for already played figurine. This is a well done rpg.
Extremamente bom 👍
Excelente, mas podia ter mais DLC 🙏🏻
Pretty enjoyable
I strongly recommend you watch YouTube videos to make sure this is the type of game you enjoy, but if you do, this is a great game.
I spent hours beating the game again and again with different heroes, and essentially, becoming better at the game and trying different solutions to the various puzzles.
Ps: I was going to make it a 4* until I saw ancient 1* reviews from over 2 years ago that crash... ::roll eyes:: devs have fixed it and it worked flawlessly on two separate iPads, iPad Air 2 (2014) and iPad Pro 10.5 (2017)

Стоит своих денег
Адаптация интерактивной книги, на голову выше чем Sorcery по качеству исполнения. Английский язык.
Awesome game, but crashes on iPad OS 13
I would give this game 5 stars - but it crashes on load with iPad OS 13. Please update, or stop selling it!
Excellent
I remember this from when I was a kid! It’s an excellent game. However, it seem next to impossible! Just like the original paperback (hence, the 5 stars). I think you really need to be spot on with the combat to survive. That’s the key. Also, excellent customer support.
I haven’t been able to land a hit.
Look great but I haven't landed a hit yet.
In this game you don't attack a space occupied by the opponent, instead you attack a space you think the opponent will go. Sound confusing? It is.

A fantastic spin on the book
Coming from someone who more or less owns every book in the series I have to say this digital remake brings book 1 to life in a way I would have never imagined. I love the complete visualisation of the mountain dungeon as you move through it.
The combat system blows the original dice-only system out of the water, and gives you a fighting chance regardless of how low your stats are, too bad the books never had this.
I bought the expansion set as well and think I’ve just about played through with every character. If I was to mention just one improvement I’d really love then that would be for a richer and longer dialogue that differs between each character and Zagor at the end. It seems such a shame to fight all the way through to the end just to have a showdown with him.
All in all this my favourite download for the year so far.

Clássico dos clássicos Fighting Fantasy
O Feiticeiro da Montanha de Fogo foi o primeiro dos livros de Fighting Fantasy lançado no Brasil e foi um sucesso entre os raros jogadores de D&D na época. A Tin Man conseguiu trazer o encanto do livro para o jogo digital e a atmosfera ficou perfeita! Com certeza quem foi fã dos FFs vai adorar!
Crushed Blacks
Getting a lot of crushed and flickering blacks on the background of combats.
Crashes no more

A brilliant port of a gamebook
Instead of simply porting a book, like previous apps, the idea was expanded to add immersion to the game. The results are fantastic and I can say that this is the best app from Tin Man Games so far.
Keeps crashing at title screen.
What's up with that?
Response from developer
Hi there. Sorry to hear that. Can you let us know your iOS device model and OS number? We'll look into it right away: info@tinmangames.com.au
Doesn’t Work
Game crashes constantly after clicking New Game. None of options screens works either. This “game” should be immediately looked into by apple and removed if not fixed.
Disappointing on many levels
The graphics were a really big let down for me personally and the storyline was weak at best. The gameplay was not fun either as you didn’t have much control over the fighting as it was more thought going into each move than there should be. I don’t think it lives up to any D&D games I have played before.
The text was also too small to read and I felt I had to have my face right up to the phone to see.
I waited a long while before purchasing this and grabbed it on sale. Glad I got it on sale as I would have been really let down by the game at full price.

Buggy
Tapping to continue fails occasionally...which means you cannot continue...which means the game is unplayable.
Response from developer
Hi there! Hopefully this works now but please email us at info@tinmangames.com.au if you continue to have problems.
Broke Tap to Continue...
Was 5 stars, but your last patch broke Tap to Continue, so it does not work half the time. This makes the game unplayable, and, thus 1 Star. Fix the problem and don’t patch in additional problems, and the review will go back to 5 stars.

Apple TV PLEASE!!!
This game is FANTASTIC! I’ve played Sorcery! which was great and this is the natural evolution of that game. Please make an Apple TV version!
Gute Umsetzung der Buchvorlage...
...mit einigen deutlichen Veränderungen. Kampfsystem beinhaltet taktisches Element, das anfangs ungewohnt ist, aber schnell gemeistert ist. Der Storyverlauf ist von Charakter zu Charakter zwar immer etwas unterschiedlich, da man teilweise andere Wege gehen muss, um die charakterspezifische Quest abzuschließen, insgesamt jedoch leider mit der Zeit repetitiv.
Frischer Wind bringt die Goblin-Erweiterung.
Für Fans der Buchvorlage auf jeden Fall ein Muss, wenn man einen nostalgischen Ausflug in die Jugend machen will.
