The Quest Classic - Cursed Chess Set is an expansion to The Quest Classic, a beautifully hand-drawn, immersive and enchanting world full of exciting challenges. After enabling the expansion, you can explore new areas and quests. However, if you don't have The Quest Classic, you can also play the expansion as a standalone game. There has been a severe mana leak in the world that has left all beings stripped of power. You can plug the leak but can't reverse the damage that has already happened. Your mission, beyond plugging the mana leak, is to find and destroy the evil creature who captured the King's two landmark towers so he could magically add them to his cursed chess set as rooks. When he has succeeded in capturing the king and queen to complete his cursed chess set, he will be able to summon a demon that will give him ultimate power in this world. Destroy him and the demon before he can complete the ritual! This expansion is designed for fresh characters. It's highly recommended that you start a new character to fully enjoy it. To access the new areas (not applicable if you are playing the expansion standalone), go to Matras harbor and talk to captain Verra, then select "Cursed" as your travel destination. For those who would like to play with an existing higher level character, there is a high level dungeon for a challenge. The Quest Classic - Cursed Chess Set has been developed by Zarista Games (www.catacomber.com) and was adapted to iPhone by Redshift.

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 clearest difference is price: Saga RPG II at Free against The Quest Classic's $2.99. Saga RPG II also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (76 vs 5). The Quest Classic's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Saga RPG II is free to download; The Quest Classic costs $2.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
The Quest Classic holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Saga RPG II has 76 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of The Quest Classic's written reviews are positive against 92% of Saga RPG II's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
The Quest Classic ships an update every 12 months, Saga RPG II every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
