"Dragon Panic looks and sounds as old school as you can get. The game is simple, survive as long as you can without getting bonked on the head, which of course is always easier said than done." - http://appadvice.com "...after one round I was hooked. It packs a definite just-one-more-time draw to rank on the leaderboards." - http://toucharcade.com "Dragon Panic offers a unique rushing raw excitement that players would enjoy irrespective of age." - http://iphonefootprint.com "The general look and feel is very reminiscent of games for the C64. If you want a fun, undemanding look back, Dragon Panic is definitely a title to check out." - http://zaxxon1-retrogames.blogspot.com Help Berny and Blaze, the adorable pink and green dragons, thwart the cowardly knight by incinerating his barrage of attacks in his quest for fame, fortune, and of course the princess. Tilt the phone to move the dragon. Tap the screen to shoot a fireball. Burn everything but don't get bonked on the head.

Retro Remix's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
