    After spending a great deal of time with this game I can say it is definitely the best rpg on the platform.

    Having a heard time searching for the healer. You really have to grind a lot, right? But anyway, IT's FUN! :) Playing this game all morning.

    The game itself is great. It's funny, it's fun to play, and the story is just the right mix of parody and homage.

    That said, there is one minor flaw which kills it for me. It forces you to listen to the in game music. If I'm playing a game on my iPod, I want to either listen to a podcast or my own music. There's no excuse for that, especially in a game like this where the music is not integral to the gameplay.

    I keep finding myself wanting to play the game, but not bothering because I'm enjoying a podcast or my music.

    When I got there, I went over near Westeria and grinded for a little before going after the healer. Those thieves especially are good, they give 100 xp and 100 gold, you just have to be careful and heal often.

    Also, don't bother saving up for the Gold Sword, its description is apt. It costs 1250 gold, but is less effective than the 700 gold iron sword. Not sure if there's another use for it or if it's just a little kick in the nuts from the devs.

    Well the description says it "retains it's value quite well". So when you resell it to the shopkeep he buys it back for 1250 gold. I got a huge kick out of that.

    Yeah, thank God for that. I felt the nerd rage rising when I bought the thing.

    Just completed it. Loved the game I was playing non stop!

    Got to level 30 and was really tooled up! Well worth the money. Please do a sequel!! Nice end sequence as well

    Only tiny negative. In the final castle twice I accidentally cast 'exit' when scrolling down for an attack spell. Think exit needs a are you sure? yes/no option !

    But 10/10, a great game

    The Gold Sword does indeed serve a purpose...but an entirely optional one.
    Luckily in 1.0.2 you'll be able to see the stats before buying so that should incur less rage :)

    psj: not quite a sequel but we have a number of side stories planned for updates. The first of these is already underway and is the story of Anders, the other prince.

    SuckerPunch: we'll check into fixing the music issue - I know it worked at one point but apparently sounds like it's not now.

    Does it have something to do with the troll/ogre/whatever boss that apparently likes shiny things? I also noticed that the description of some armour (bronze armour, I think) indicated it was shiny or flashy.

    I meant to bring that stuff along to see what would happen, but forgot.

    Loving the game, but I'm stuck in Bluefin. I killed the demon in the volcano. What do I do now?

    Naw, the troll just likes shiny things, that's why he has the hero's helmet. And I guess he probably slobbered on it and made it rusty or something. He's gross like that.

    The Gold Swords are very useful, though, because when you die you lose half your gold... but your items are fine. Since the Gold Swords sell for the same price they are purchased for, so you can protect your money by investing in Gold Swords. Very handy!

    Ugh, of course. That makes sense. Feel like a moron for not putting that together.

    Don't worry, almost no one does :p In one of these updates I'll probably just bite the bullet and add banks ;)

    Oh don't do that, I really like the idea of investing in gold swords, now that I know about it.

    Maybe a book or an NPC can say something about it, just to give the more attentive players a hint.

    Um, that's my problem, too. I'm always thinking of what the old pirate said about his former hide-out, which is hidden behind the secret door at the volcano. Don't know, where to search...

    Another piece of information was, that a part of the hero armor is hidden in the volcano at the end of a secret way through the lava pits... never found this secret passage... maybe we have to search harder :D

    Hints ans help would be very welcome - otherwise I'm thinking of a quick trip to Crescent Cove to get my head clear :p

    The secret entrance is actually the entrance to the volcano - Ogden is supposed to say something about finding it when you enter the volcano the first time... wonder if that's not working right or something? Anyway, once you beat the boss of the Volcano, it's just time to head down to Crescent Cove and get to the mines. I'll tweak the script a little bit in the next big update to make sure this is more clear.

    Thanks so much for the hint - in fact I'm at Crescent Cove right now. Just stocked up on herbs etc. heading for the mines :D

    Yay, off I go :)

    Will be glad to get this - hopefully it fixes the crashing issue I've been having? Just had my 4th or 5th crash to homescreen - the latest one was just after I had beaten the boss in The Mines. Ouch!!

    Hmm, I haven't gotten many crash reports... were you doing anything in particular when it crashed?
