Dandara Trials of Fear Edition in IOS

★★★★★

★★★★★ Finally, Nintendo will be scared

I've never really written a review but here it goes. No matter how often I play iPhone games they're always lacking the feel of a portable handheld game made by Nintendo for their new 3DS or even their older handheld consoles. That finally changed with this game. The feeling I get when playing Dandara is a cross between symphony of the night (castlevania) and super metroid. The movement is unique to the game as Dandara flies from jump pad to jump pad, otherwise the weapons, music, graphics and overall feel to the game does not feel like an IOS touchscreen game. I truly think this feature could make Nintendo worth. Because, if games like this continue to be released there will be no point for a 3DS anymore. Amazing job guys. My only thing I would like to see is the ability to switch the movement joystick and the gun joystick as I feel like for left / right handed people this could make a difference. I won't rate you down a star for this as the game was just released. If I could do more than two thumbs up I would. Again great job and thank you

★★★★★ Absolutely Incredible

After looking through a countless number of games to spend my few dollars I had leftover on, I came upon this little gem which seemed cool at first, so I kept it in the back of my mind. After looking and comparing reviews and trailers across many different games and systems, I figured that this was one whose controls would fit perfectly on mobile devices without any adjustments needing to be made. After purchasing it, I can say this is hands down the best mobile game and one of the best metroidvanias I’ve played to this day. Silky smooth sound effects, presentation, and (as I had assumed) controls which are incredibly intuitive. It’s content is extremely unique with almost no other games like it that I can think of due to the simple mechanic of traversal. Combat feels just as good as well. And for the cherry on top, there’s even a new game plus for an extra challenge. I can’t wait to see what else these devs masterfully create next. 😁

★★★★★ Game is really good but it keeps quitting and I lost my data

This game is really fun, I love it very much. The music, the story, and the gameplay are all top-notch. But I’m writing this view just for a question. But recently I haven’t been playing this game as much as before and last 3 weeks ago I wanted to play it again, and when I launched it, the bar was around 50% and the game just quits and brings me back to my iPad Home Screen. I did this multiple times then decided to delete the app. I reinstalled it, but when I hit the Open button, it does the same things to me. Then when I go to my settings, I couldn’t find the game, like, it literally didn’t exist as an app anymore and I couldn’t even offload the game. I wrote a request to RawFurry support but I’m not getting any responses. Three weeks after (which is now), I couldn’t wait any longer and decided to delete the game, sign out of my Apple ID, and then reinstall the game. I just reinstalled my game; when I open it, it loaded without crashing! But then when I click “start game”, no files could be found and I had to restart everything, so I click “start game” on an empty file, then the app crashed. Could you please fix this? I love playing the game and I definitely wouldn’t give you a 1 star just because of an error, and definitely wouldn’t ask for a refund, but I’m waiting too long ;(

★★★★★ My fave game of this genre!

I love love love this game. I bought it during the school year and realized it would be addictive. So, I didn’t play for awhile. Now that it’s summer, I’m hooked. I have to force myself to stop playing and do things like eat and sleep. The graphics are beautiful and the skill level required is challenging. I love that after I beat a boss I’m super excited to check out my map and see what locations I might be able to open next. I don’t recall what I paid for this game, but I can honestly say I’d buy it again. If only my nieces, nephew, or great nieces were game4s this would be their next present.

★★★★★ Difficulty is an issue

( updated after developer feedback, appreciate the effort) Ok, just bought this, lets write some review: Reasons that will drive you away: 1. Survivability is an issue, you get to take 2 hits at the beginning, 3rd hit kills you, unless you can upgrade for more hp. However, the depth you have to progress in order to get enough resource to upgrade is scary. It doesn't feel like a upgrade curve(low level can upgrade fast, then harder when higher level) , it’s just scary at the beginning. 2. (Removed thanks to developer’s feedback) 3. You can’t panic, I mean, at all. In early game situations, some encounter will hit you hard that if you make a mistake(like miss a shot) you will lose another hp (remember you have 3hp only) . But I suppose this is challenging gameplay for someone. 4. Travel is an issue: you have camps, you have world map, but there doesn't seem to be ways to travel between camps. And the way this game rotates the room view( see it in the trailer) will make the map almost unreadable. 5. Risk is too high, reward is little: basically because of 2, every step in the game bears high risk, you worry about losing all your money all the time, but the game doesn't offer you the prize you deserve when you overcome these challenges. Reasons you want this game: 1. You are hardcore gamer that loves challenge. 2. You like to master precise control with touch screen. 3. Controls are good , intuitive and very smooth.

★★★★★ Wow!

I am only about an hour in.. so this is more of a first impression. So far this game is so original, the art and music are both so beautiful. I’m so very impressed by this titles genius touchscreen control scheme. I have over 100 games on my phone and have seen developers try and implement them in all kinds of ways but I think this might be the best so far. It is so natural, no virtual buttons... I dare say that it probably controls a lot better for touch screen than with a proper game pad. If you are a fan of the side scrolling Metroid type games but you are often put off by mobile controls... check this one out.

★★★★★ Great with a few suggestions

This game is awesome. I am the dreamer map and that part is hard as crap but I love it. This is like dark souls with side scrolling. If you hate hard games then stay away but if you love incredibly fun, hard games that rely on skill to beat then this is the game for you. For the developers I’d say please, please, please include a time attack boss mode to add replay-ability. If you add the option for a timer for all those speed runners the. That would be great. Or a harder mode like new game+. You keep updates but the enemies are harder, more numerous, and more advanced. That would be amazing.
