    Well, it's been more than 2 days and inXile hasn't emailed me back. Hopefully, they'll respond!

    Ugh. Don't count on it. I checked all the negative reviews, and the theme of them was crappy support. Good luck.

    Yeah, I read through the reviews and it does seem like they're not responding! Hopefully, they didn't go the port a game and bounce route!

    No retina graphics,
    support only through their facebook page is a joke and mess there.

    Not buying this game.

    I'm enjoying the game, such a nice reminder of my time with the PS2 version. I can see why iPhone users may be upset that all progress is lost when they get a call though.

    I think you're contacting the wrong party. You should email Square One Games, the developer who did the iOS version.

    Ah, ok. I'll try that out. inXile's website had an option for The Bard's Tale on their site so that's why I emailed them.

    Just finished the game, awesome. I didn't want to end but... I think this game made me like RPG more. It took me a whole week playing at least for half an hour. I will go for a second round when they update it. I wish there was free roam after we finish the hame, doing quests and such):

    I think the operative term here is "at least."

    Lol I said the whole week (7 days) and sometimes I would go for an hour until my battery dies. Sometimes, I would play it twice a day. I think I have neglected my other games (fifa 12) and focused on this game soley:)

    I would have to say 12 hours. I didn't spent much time exploring and doing side missions, so I finished it fast. Like I said, I will go for a second play through onece they update the game, with autosave and multitasking issues.

    This would be what determines whether I'll buy it at some point or not.

    Anyone else having trouble accidentally giving out orders while attacking because of the size and placement of the attack button or hitting the weapon menu button while moving? This is on iPhone. Gets pretty annoying mid battle and having to repeatedly tell my guys to attack while fighting off enemies.

    One other thing the game really needs is a way to bypass NPC dialog while looking through stuff to buy. Having to wait for the dialog to finish to hit Back is also annoying.

    Those aside, game is a lot of fun.

    Not really but I did finally realize there are 4 swipe commands not 2. I thought there was only up & down. Lol great game! Buy it people! Top games of the year by far!
