    This is one of the top 5 wanted games for my ipad2 that I'm getting on the 10th April.

    When does this sale end?

    It does say how long the sale is for right on the 1st page of this thread in the app description.

    I bought this game on launch day and loved every minute of it. Glad they have iCloud game saving, especially due to it's large size. I can delete the game and come back to it, or continue it on my iPhone.

    Ugh, I'm extremely disappointed in majority of iOS game developers for not incorporating iCloud game saving in their games, I thought it would have become standard in games, so sad :(

    For $1.99 you have to buy this game !

    I'm loving it, only issue i have its annoying when theres an update as i often havent got room for the full update so have to de-install some things, apply the update (as its a big game) and then put the old games back on again.

    Its a huge filesize thats the only 'negative' so thats one reason i'm playing it lots so i can hopefully complete it and then de-install !

    But its a great game, for $1.99 you should buy it

    It says 2 weeks but for all I know it could have been on sale 3-4 days already. a sale ending date would have been helpful. :)

    I've noticed the resolution on the iPad 1 is around half that of the iPad 2.
    Do the graphics then still look good on the iPad 1?

    The graphics don't look the best... But it's still good on the iPad 1.

    The graphics are pretty rough on the iPad 1. It's still fun for two bucks, but it looks much nicer on a smaller screen or a newer iPad.

    Does anybody have footage of this game in action on the new iPad? And what is it that's so great about this game? The majority of people in this thread are recommending this game but haven't really said why.

    The game is very funny! Hilariously funny! :)
    It's very long - you will get a lot of playtime for $2.

    At this price its a no-brainer.

    Sadly kids these days want to be spoon-fed games, seems they simply don't have any imagination whatsoever. How they'd get on with 80's text adventures I'll never know. haha

    I get my ipad 2 on the 10th April and I'll be buying it the same day, also Baldurs gate is coming to ios, thats another classic that the kiddies won't enjoy.

    i just uploaded a short clip of The Bard's Tale (on my new iPad) to youtube.
    I'm new at this game. Adjust the video to 720p for more clarity.
