An expansion to The Quest Classic, a beautifully hand-drawn, immersive and enchanting world full of exciting challenges. After enabling the expansion, you can continue to play The Quest Classic with your existing character(s) to explore new areas and quests. However, if you don't have The Quest Classic, you can also play the expansion as a standalone game. In the game you are an agent of the Tzar called to the fortress of Zlatograd, the last free city, but it's besieged. You must fight hordes of Savirs who have united with the magic of Kozney the Deathless and overrun the beautiful country of Lukomorye, seized members of the Royal Family and taken over the major cities. You'll need all your skills, experience and brain to overcome the new challenges. However, you will find new friends, spells, weapons and other items to help you become the hero of Lukomorye. In the expansion you will find: - Over 30 hours of additional gameplay - New monsters with graphics/abilities/properties - New spells - New, superiorly enchantable armors and weapons - The ability to restore your lost xp - Many new quests, NPCs and high level shops - Many new books to learn skills from and enjoy reading - A new companion, Agent Kolobok, to travel with you through the long campaign. To access the new areas (not applicable if you are playing the expansion standalone), go to Mithria harbor and talk to captain Hanty, then select "Lukomorye" as your travel destination. It is recommended to reach at least level 22 before trying to take on the challenges of this new expansion. Please note that after you have traveled to Lukomorye, you'll have no way back for a long while (except if you have Marked a spot), so it is also recommended that you keep a save in Mithria. The Quest Classic - Hero of Lukomorye is developed by Zarista games (www.catacomber.com).

Welcome to the old school RPG world of Saga RPG II: Evolution. Story ------ You have rid the lands of the evil Dragon King in your victorious epic battle and the people are thankful. However, the Skeleton King is now gaining power and the land is again being threatened. You are once again being called to arms to uphold peace as you journey through the lands. May your sword stay ever sharp. What to expect -------------- This game is built to be lightweight. The download is tiny, and the game processing is minimal. To accomplish this, the game itself is pretty simple. This is a second version, which is larger than the first and will grow as expansions are released, but the goal of remaining lightweight will remain. If you like the game, please show your support by providing a positive rating/feedback. Thank you for playing!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Saga RPG II at Free against The Quest Classic's $1.99. Saga RPG II also leads on ratings volume (75 vs 2) and review sentiment (92% vs 74%). The Quest Classic's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
