A built-in save editor and dialogue translator for RPG Maker MV/MZ games. Change gold, items, weapons, armor, levels, HP/MP, and party stats, then keep playing on iPhone or iPad. Import your own MV/MZ game archives and play locally with touch controls. RPG Pocket is a local player, save editor, and translator for user-provided RPG Maker MV and MZ games. It is designed for players who already have supported MV/MZ game packages and want a better way to play, translate, and adjust saves on iPhone or iPad. Built-in Save Editor - Edit supported MV/MZ save slots inside the app - Change gold, item counts, weapons, armor, levels, HP, MP, and party stats - Browse the game's item, weapon, and armor database when editing inventory - Import and export saves in standard desktop-style formats - Keep save tools close to the game instead of moving files between devices Dialogue Translator - Translate standard RPG Maker dialogue while you play - Translate choice lists with numbered lines so you can match each option on screen - Show translations in a subtitle overlay without replacing the original game text - Uses Apple's on-device Translation framework on iOS 18 or later MV/MZ Game Player - Import supported ZIP, 7z, or RAR archives from Files - Detect RPG Maker MV and RPG Maker MZ packages automatically - Launch games locally through a private on-device runtime - Play with touch controls, action buttons, and an in-game keyboard - Keep multiple imported games organized in one library Compatibility Tools RPG Pocket includes support for common MV/MZ runtime needs, including local resource loading, save isolation between games, OGG audio handling, encrypted asset support, and compatibility shims for common plugin behavior. How It Works 1. Export or obtain a supported RPG Maker MV/MZ game package that you have the right to use. 2. Import the archive from the Files app. 3. Select the game in your library. 4. Play locally, translate dialogue, manage saves, and edit supported save data. Important Notes RPG Pocket does not include commercial games. You must provide your own legally obtained RPG Maker MV/MZ game files. Compatibility depends on each game's export format, plugins, encryption, audio assets, and custom save structure. Some custom games, plugins, or save formats may not be fully supported. Dialogue translation requires iOS 18 or later and a supported language pair. Translation availability may vary by device, system language, and installed language models. RPG Pocket is an independent utility and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Gotcha Gotcha Games, KADOKAWA, or the RPG Maker brand owners.
