Game Impressions This is beautiful. It's addicting. The best part is it's randomized, so I can play it over and over. I'm also growing fond of the art, it's awesome. Controls are a little awkward at first but it ensures that you don't make mistakes. Great overall game.
Thanks Anctoh, glad you like it. I'm also glad that someone gets that the unusual controls are to prevent errors I still have a way to go in order to make the game easier and more accessible. Everytime I finish one update I start another, so stay tuned!
Wow... I just discovered Mysterious Castle when I ventured into the dark recesses of the iPad section; I barely made it out with my life to show you this dazzling recent (March 2013) change log with now pinch to zoom support. Where has Mysteriois Castle been all my life? Downloading...

Bearman2468 Member Jan 4, 2014 6 0 0 #129 Bearman2468, Jan 9, 2014 Ok, thanks for letting me know! ScotDamn Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Jul 8, 2013 1,990 0 36 Wireless Sales Happy Daddy https://twitter.com/ScotDamn #130 ScotDamn, Jan 9, 2014 Not sure why this got a new thread. I bought this last night and although I've only spent an hour or more with it, the camera is def frustrating. I appreciate the party based system, and multiple classes, but panning the view is overly difficult requiring two fingers. Half the time I'm struggling to get the right view and instead zoom in or out. This should be priced closer to $3 where it's been priced in my eyes. It's quite rough edged. But if you can get passed this, there's a deep strategy game there. I'll definitely be giving this more time. Bool Zero Well-Known Member Dec 14, 2010 1,922 0 36 #131 Bool Zero, Jan 9, 2014 Just a heads up, this also suffers some crash issues as well. I bought this when it first came out a long while ago and while it is a good game it is not without its problems... ScotDamn Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Jul 8, 2013 1,990 0 36 Wireless Sales Happy Daddy https://twitter.com/ScotDamn #132 ScotDamn, Jan 9, 2014 Game Impressions This game would be amazing if it were polished up just a little. Specifically panning the view. I also noticed menu buttons on the bottom (gather/solo) would disappear sometimes which I haven't yet figured out why. Also selecting a spot for your character to move to can be blocked by another character or structure. This has been frustrating. I'll say it again here. This game shouldn't be priced at $5 in its current state. This opinion is taking into account other games you get for $5 or other RL for less. IF it was polished up and issues removed, most definitely would be worth $5. It offers a lot of value (if a bit broken) with a party system and several unique classes and attacks including a wolf. A wolf damn it. Win. Bottom line: If you're a die hard RL fan and the idea of putting together a 4 class party is intriguing to you, set your expectations low so you can maybe be surprised by an otherwise good game. Bearman2468 Member Jan 4, 2014 6 0 0 #133 Bearman2468, Jan 9, 2014 Ok, thanks. The reason I made a new thread was because when I clicked on the game in the touch arcade app it didn't show any forum linked to it like the other apps. Bearman2468 Member Jan 4, 2014 6 0 0 #134 Bearman2468, Jan 9, 2014 I'm not sure if it came up in the other thread, but does anyone one know how long this game is and does it have perma-death? Bearman2468 Member Jan 4, 2014 6 0 0 #135 Bearman2468, Jan 10, 2014 Is there a main objective of this game. How many levels do you play before you "win". ScotDamn Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Jul 8, 2013 1,990 0 36 Wireless Sales Happy Daddy https://twitter.com/ScotDamn #136 ScotDamn, Jan 10, 2014 Yes, there's an option for permadeath. I believe you just construct a party of up to 4 classes and clear the map. I haven't finished one yet so I can't say for sure. Rythan Well-Known Member May 16, 2014 104 0 0 #137 Rythan, Feb 4, 2015 This game has been optimized for iPhone 5/6 today, it's a roguelike turn-based random generated crawler. Very fun to play and it's unique, my favorite game nowadays. The price is kinda high but in my opinion it's worth it. You can pick up loot from enemies and upgrade your squad gears. There are also mushrooms that restore your life.. Of course there are hidden chest inside dungeon. Yeah chest! Who can say no to chest. If you are fan of roguelike genre this is a must!
