    I'm looking for some fun action RPGs. I've played the new DHs and EW series, but they are filled with IAP and it takes away from the game. Does anyone know of some that are fun while being at least balanced IAP wise?

    Premium, Bastion is my top recommendation following what you've played. Consider Mage Gauntlet too. Reaper: Tale of a Pale Swordsman is free to try out till level 20 and has a cheap premium unlock.
    Echo Prime
    Slayin

    If you're after only free stuff, then try Bloodmasque.
    Sol:Stone of Life
    Asterogue (this is deceptively awesome and totally free)
    Deep Dungeons of Doom
    Battleloot Adventure
    Crimsonheart
    Epichearts
    Quadropus Rampage

    Most of these are dungeon crawlers ? I have a dungeon crawler obsession. I guess something like iesabel.

    Yeah... This one is a fantastic dungeon crawling action RPG too.
     
  9. If you're not on iPhone 5 / wider screens, you could try 2v of my favorites ever:

    - Demon Hunter - The Return of The Wings: I love this one, still play it on my old device <3
    - ILLUSIA: FastFastFast, this one rocks!

    I like Anodyne too. A different kind of game, "similar" to Mirai Nikki [but I hated the controls, so I never finished them]

    And you could try some classics like Secret of Mana and Chronotrigger.

    Also, you can always check undeadcow's rpg list:

    Bastion most definitely.
    Spiral:Ep.1 is similar to Bastion, in that it is different.
    No idea if things like Epoch or Infinity Blade series fit your bill.
    Iesabel, but I cannot really recommend it, too buggy.

    Wraithborne
    Lili
    Brandnew Boy
    Heroes Call

    Didn't know Lili was an action RPG. I played the top three of your list when I first started gaming on ios , and I became pretty disappointed. Matter of fact , those games are why I'm do cynical and hard on ios games. Anyway, the best dungeon crawler I've played do far was iesabel, but currently I'm using an iphone 4 so it can't handle it. Thanks for the suggestions though.

    Top 3 of my first list here? You mean Bastion, TWEWY and Quadropus Rampage? You are a hard one to please. LOL.

    Iesabel is pretty good, but it's also pretty buggy. I really enjoyed it though, but never got to finish it.

    The Gods, Bastion and Wraithborne are a little less RPG than they are action adventure though.

    No no no. The list I quoted you from. Orc had a decent story, but combat was sluggish and gear was boring. Not to mention there were no classes. Wraithborne was boring in almost all aspects, and Gods was just a super cheap hack n slash. I'm going to have to try the other games you suggested though.
