Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This is by far the best game ive purchased on the appstore and its cheap too.
Great game for the price, controls are smooth, pace and difficulty seem just right, so far so good and already worth more than the $1.99.
This awesome game and keep up developers.
We enjoyed this game, nice job devs.
Certain translation errors and highly predictable boss patterns aside, this is a highly playable app that also does not flood you with new ads every five minutes. If you enjoy action RPGs, it is worth the time to play through once. If the later game gives you trouble, just remember these two tips: the bosses have attack pattens that you can exploit after learning them, and your dash attack will give you a few frames of invincibility to dodge otherwise unavoidable attacks.
Enjoying it very much. Yes, its a simple side scroller, but done well. Nice graphics, challenging without being so ridiculous you give up. Easy upgrades, easy controls. Plenty of opportunities to save and upgrade all abilities and weapon easily. No grinding!!! Just a fun little game to enjoy. Thank you.
Just downloaded by gut feeling. It's surprisingly fun, very simple, but with a good challenge. Perfect for a casual player. No in game purchase…. Thumbs WAAAYY UP! Perfect score.
Great old school feel and gameplay.
Reminds us of the good ole days of video games. Having fun with this.
This is an incredible game,, very challenging, with no crashes at all unlike others. We just love it. Such great game in so little small file. 5 stars from us :) Fyi. We just finished the game on our ipad 1, ios 9.3 with no issues at all. Thank you developers :).
Awesome retro game! Brought us back to our childhood. You should definitely try it.
Been playing this for a few days and finding it entertaining.
After beating Swordigo we searched for a worthy successor. This is almost perfect. We wish it were a little more difficult but otherwise it's a perfect side scroller metroidvania type game. There's no double jumping up walls but we can live without it. Best phone have we've played in a while. Glad we can't across this one.
Great game. Feel like we're missing the story because of the translation but worth playing.
Great platformer with a castlevania feel. Super fun to play.
Wow what a great game. Pay once and off you go. Very Metroid like and Castlevania like game. Can't wait to finish.
You don't buy gems or gold, they don't sell you it in chunks, it's pay once own forever. Thank You.
Fun, easy to control, and no IAPs.
Great little hack and slash with good controls.
Now this is a real game. Just unlocking no IAPs. 10/10 cant drop the phone.
Really enjoying this game. Great old school platforming.
Most of all, this game doesn't require in-app payment. No need to say it's addicting, fun.
We expected this to be a crap amateurish Metroidvania but it's actually very good. Give it a shot.
We certainly wish there were more games with no IAPs; we were happy to come across this one. Pros: Addicting gameplay–just the right amount of "grind." Unique bosses, enjoyable music. Responsive controls; very easy to pick up. Cons: Some disconnect between the player and the protagonist. We didn't feel involved or too interested in the plot. Poor English translation. (This may have been a part of the disconnect between the player and the protagonist/plot.).
Pretty fun home brewed Metroidvania.
Possible spoiler alert: we were definitely enjoying the game, and we think we were pretty close to the end when we were in a battle (with the moon?) that seemed impossible to win. Rocks kept coming crashing down on us that were pretty impossible to avoid. And each time we'd try again we had to spend coins to fill up our hearts. We tried many times to defeat the boss but eventually decided to give up on the game due to the seeming impossibility of it. Other than this problem, we would have given the game 4 stars.
