    Yeah, home base saving system should be addressed. I went through like two cutscenes and upgraded all my equipment and was ready to progress. I switched apps for a while came back to the game and it loaded to a point before the cutscenes and I have to go back through and upgrade all my gear again. There should be a dedicated save button within the menus... Unless there is in which case i apologize in advance

    Recommended hardware:
    iPhone 5s or later, 5th generation iPad or later, iPod touch 6
    Minimum hardware:
    4th generation iPhone and 3rd or 4th generation iPad but with a sub-optimal experience
    Older devices are not supported
    So yeah, iphone 5 can still play this game... Even iphone 4s can still play it if the description about minimum is right..

    Anyone can explain about this?

    Regarding connection, you don't need one to play the game itself, though you may need one to load the game initially. Several times I've gone into airplane mode while playing and apart from a brief dialog box you can continue playing no problem.

    Another nod for a virtual stick inclusion; the scenery is incredible and my fatfingers cover half the screen while dragging my gryphon around.

    Hmm... So every play session requires an active connection at the start? Or only at the first time opening the app? Thanks btw

    The ONLY time you need a connection is when you launch the game for the FIRST time. That's it. Never again. After you launch the game once, you could destroy the part of your device that connects to the Internet if you wanted cause you'll never need it again. For this game. Other games will still need it. But not this one.

    I avoid constant online required games like I avoid certain plagues.

    Whoa..so like...is this good? It looks beautiful and the sound is great. It seems like its kind of light on the gameplay front tho. Always good to support premium games with attention to sound and detail.

    I was under the impression that the game pulls your character info from the company's server every time you load the game, good to know

    The app description says 10+ hours of play, and that this is a first installment. Hmm...I am wondering if all these locked characters means the plan is for the installments to continue within the same app, vs starting over with whatever they decide on for episode two, etc...I hope so.

    So far for me it's been a bunch of finding key cards to unlock gates and a few battles in between. So, it is a little more like Fearless Fantasy.

    And as for sound, the music is beautiful, but the game lacks a lot of sound effects. Only a few menus and pop ups have sounds. The battles and cutscenes do not. It's kind of weird playing it or watching it and having no other sounds than the music. Still playable though.

    I edit video and audio and often use sounds in my videos. Even a site like Audioblocks has a lot of stock sounds that can be used. I hope they implement some eventually.

    Anyone have a chance to test it on a 4S? If so how does it run on it

    Same impressions. The game has a nice hook to it, and it's fun. But the cutscenes with no sound are really jarring and make me think the game has a bug, or is unfinished. In that respect, it doesn't feel like a $9.00 (I know, it's cheap overall but qualifies as premium on iOS) game. I look forward to future updates, and am having fun playing it.

    Agree with this. The entire point of mobile is on the go gaming in bursts. A save system is sorely needed.

    Did you check your items then select Quest Items? I was going back & forth looking for a card & didn't relealize I had the card already. I had checked items, but missed the Quest Items tab at first. When I finally saw that tab I went up to the gate & used the card & was done with the quest minutes later. I was staying away from the gates due to the previous gate bug issue that's since been fixed.

    You can craft in the main city after you finish the prison story.

    When you are upgrading and a weapon is needed to add to the upgrade, does that weapon need to have its experience maxed out? I was trying to upgrade a weapon and I had the component weapon but I couldn't add it
