$5.99? I'll wait for reviews. Too many good games!! Shooter, zen bound, the Quest, and all coming out within an hour
here's a manual for The Quest in PDF http://www.redshift.hu/redshift/TheQuestManualPdf.zip it's for the PocketPC version but seems accurate to the iPhone version as well from what I could tell. arn
compressed and reuse of textures I have this one on snipe for now. There were just too many good games released at the same time for my wallet
Oh my god, this brought a tear to my eye as it immediately reminded me of my favourite games back when I was such a young kid: Dungeon Master, Ultima III: Exodus, Lands Of Lore. I loved those RPGs and I fear I cannot resist this. Damn, it's gonna be one hefty iTunes bill this month!!!!! Already bought Pocket God, and expecting to buy Shooter, Zen Bound, Vector Tanks, and god knows what else!!!
Oh my gods! I have been playing this all morning. It's so addicting!! Oh, and The Quest is cool too, I guess.
More like daggerfall. They should remove graphically stunning from the description. It doesn't bother me much that the graphics are extremely dated and grainy as hell, but it's not fair to mislead people. Anyway, seems like it has a lot of depth.
This is pretty good. For dated and grainy graphics, the feel of the game is surprisingly atmospheric. Nice touches like the rain and thunder/lightning effects really draw you into it. The music is great. It seems like a deep game, one that will last for hours and hours. Looking forward to playing this more. The framerate is perfect, but its nothing the iPhone wouldn't be able to handle anyway. I'm so glad this game is no slideshow, the transitions really make a difference.
