    There is a map based dungeon exploration game I have labelled as MDC on my device but I can’t find the proper name; it was free for a while and might still be (?)

    Great list, bummed to see so many promising titles for iPhone only, though. :(

    This is an iOS forum for iOS games. What do you expect?

    I use my iPad to play games, so that's what I look for - also an iOS device, just featured less here. Definitely not disparaging the greatness of the list, just making a comment.

    Oh. Well, you can play virtually all iPhone games on your iPad. I don't even have an iPhone. That doesn't make me any less interested in "iPhone games".

    I have an iPad Mini, and unless there's an iPad-specific app for a game, I can't play it. I'm certainly interested in RPGs, which is why I'm reading the thread in the first place, but playing games on my iPhone hurts my eyes.

    Again, I wasn't - and am not - trying to criticize the list. It's an excellent resource of epic proportions and clearly a lot of work went into it. I was just making a comment, because I can't play ones made only for the iPhone, even though I am interested (hence my disappointment).

    I also can't speak for the entirety of the list - but most of the puzzle RPGs listed are (sadly) not universal. I went through the App Store and searched each title.

    Is there a list dedicated to iPad only RPGs?
