    CRITICS SAY

    Ranked No.1 iPhone RPG
    - IGN Game Reviews (9/10)

    “ZENONIA harkens back to Link to the Past, the bestselling 16-bit chapter in the long-running Zelda franchise, but with graphics that are much closer to Phantom Hourglass for the Nintendo DS.”
    - IGN EDITOR'S CHOICE AWARD (9/10)

    “If you've been looking for something on the App Store that compares to the classic 16-bit RPG's from days of yore, ZENONIA may just be what you've been searching for. GAMEVIL seems to have designed this game specifically for gamers clamoring for a classic action RPG experience.”
    - Touch Arcade

    “The game looks like a souped-up version of Legend of Zelda: A Link To the Past for the SNES, with more animation, brighter colors, and more complex game play such as thousands of weapons and items to collect and a full Diablo-like skill tree.”
    - SlideToPlay

    Be careful. The links above for 1 and 2 appear to be the real deal. But all three Zenonias have "free" versions and paid versions. The difference is just that you get more money to start with in the paid versions.

    The ones that are always free have a "." at the end. Personally, I think Gamevil is getting a little deceptive in the way they're doing things now and I'm not liking it.

    That said, I just got the paid version of Zenonia 3 yesterday, and so far it's great and don't see a need for the IAPs yet. We'll see how that goes. Reviews don't seem to complain to much about IAPs (but again, they also use another crappy practice, giving people like 3,000 coins if they give the game a 5-star review).

    Anyway, just thought I'd throw that out there. Good games. Just wish they'd be premium games that didn't require IAPs.

    i played Zenonia 1 on psp... such a damn grind towards the end... it was painful.... the last dungeon started with mobs level 60 and ended with mobs level 90 x_x i had to level up like 25 times in the same dungeon to be able to get what i needed.....


    that alone won't let me play Z3 free version.... specially if it's IAP heavy... i wont go though the same grind or worse again D:

    The icon is the best way to differentiate. Icons with green outlines and the gamevil logo are free with IAP. About the grind in Zenonia 1 I believe the second one is much better in regards to leveling, so, try that one. I think I will skip Zenonia 3 & 4

    Well, they all have IAPs (even the paid versions), but it generally seemed to be a better deal to get a large wad of cash up front if you went with the paid versions.

    Anyway, looking at the AppStore, it looks like the previously "paid" versions of Zenonia 1 & 2 did drop to free so these are a good deal. Just make sure like Neswii said, that you download the versions that don't have the green outlines or the "." at the end of the name.

    The paid version of Zenonia 3 is still $.99. The freemium "green outline" version is still there, of course.

    I don't really get why so many people complain that Zenonia 3 (the free version) is IAP-heavy. I finished the whole game without having to make any In-App purchases. Of course, I did have to grind a bit, but isn't it like that in almost all krpg's?

    I wasn't complaining. Since I just started, I don't know how it will go. Just choose to go the $.99 route just in case. Can't complain about paying a $1 for a good game and so far it's great.

    Just figured people might want to know what the difference is between the free and paid versions (particularly for Z1 and Z2 since both paid versions are now on sale for free). I always get anxious about free games that have IAPs since they're often a big money maker for devs. Afterall, giving away free games isn't helping them make money.

    I actually never had too much trouble with the grinding without IAP in Zenonia. I figured that if you complete asynchronous co-op Tower with a hacked character as your partner, you can gain like 10 levels with a decent item lol.

    Currently downloading all the Zenonias... That should keep me occupied :p

    Hmm, Zenonia 1 is still modifying. I wonder if they fixed the intrusive ad that they mention on the comments?

    Interesting turn of events on the AppStore regarding these titles. Yes, the paid versions of Zenonia 1 and 2 are currently free. But they changed the titles of the freemiums to Zenonia Lite and Zenonia 2 Lite as opposed to the original trend where they just has the "." at the end of the name with the different logo.

    Wonder if they were getting too many complaints about the very slight difference in names. To me, it was a bit deceiving.

    Glad to see Gamevil may be at least cleaning things up to be a little clearer on the AppStore.

    Zenonia 3 hasn't been changed yet, however. Still just the "." separating the versions.

    Not sure about Zenonia 4, but the others have some characters that overlap, but the stories are pretty independent from each other.

    The first game is honestly still my favorite one. Be sure to check it out. Simple and clean KRPG, and honestly, what made the genre popular on the AppStore in early 2009. Played it through six times.
