Latest reviews of Elven Chronicles app for iPhone and iPad
It is a fun turn based rpg. There Are very few around in the iPhone and while this isnt the greatest game it is really fun. It is east thou because your regen alot of hp/mp while walking but it is still a great game.
Love this game. Nice music loops. A little buggy with side quests, but so are most games. I want addons!
This game is very addicting so b carful if u buy it. The only real problems with it are that the side quests r a bit buggy, the game drains ur iPhones battery like theres no 2marrow, and that it get very boring once u beat the main story and all the side quests. Other than that its a great game and if u like RPGs u should buy it.
I bought the 3.0 update just to play this game. Good ol JRPGs are just too few and far between on the iPhone. Its a decent game, but not perfect. I really like the controls for the most part and the graphics are very nice too. However, the sprite animation is pretty terrible and so is the music. I also dont really like how the players health just recharges after a battle. Wheres the challenge in that? I wish there was an option to turn that off, but maybe the recharge will slow down when I get to a higher level. The story is pretty standard JRPG stuff so far, but I can live with that. Its definitely worth the price and I would reccomend to any RPG fan, but dont expect a perfect game. EDIT: I lowered my rating. After more time with the game, much of its luster has worn off and I can see it for the forgettable RPG that it is... Im still holding out for a more Retro RPGs on the iPhone.
Lack of autosave and TERRIBLE controls (takes many attempts to tap on an npc) really hurt the game. That and the grind. The whole game is grind for 30 mins, boss, repeat. It has potential but needs a lot more work.
