Ignore the previous review

Apparently that above reviewer never actually played Baldur’s Gate. This is an amazing and lovingly restored and reconstructed chapter between BG1 and Shadows of Amn, the story is full of a lot of foreshadowing for the next game, without any spoilers, the item management and navigation is well executed for touch displays and much better than the original or even the computer enhanced edition with the one exception of item description which is a long press, something that can take a second to master, but not that long. Like any real rpg the game is what you decide it will be. So no, you don’t have to fight the big bad villain, yes you might not save a particular character, and the characters you interact with, or not, are up to you.

That being said, he new and returning character were perfectly rendered with what sounds like original voices! The banter and jokes are perfect and the new characters, especially Glint, are some of the best of the entire series.

This is an extension to BG1 (the chapter numbers even continue), this is an interlude before the BG2, this is not an expansive involved epic. Right there in the description it says 25 hours, I sunk at least 100 into BG2. However siege of Dragonspear is EXCELLENT. Any Bioware fan will love it, and any BG fan must play it!

I Hope They Keep Making These Types of Games

I’m so glad they revived this series in the infinity engine for iOS. These games are just such a pleasure to play, and while SoD lacks some of the explorative freedom and discovery of the earlier games, it still has great characters and all the little subplots that made the originals a blast to play through.

I’d love it if they started another series, with new npcs and stories, regions to explore, etc. And maybe premade player characters similar to Divinity 2 or something like that. The story just seems more compelling when the character has a background rooted in the setting. And some kind of game editor. I’d buy all of it. I wouldn’t even wait for a sale.

Anyway, try it out. It’s a great game, especially compared to most other rpgs on iOS. I mean, they got freaking David Warner to reprise his role from the earlier games. That dudes a legit Shakespearean actor. And there’s no coins or gems to buy to level up. You just play through the story like a normal human being, meet people and have adventures.

Try it out.

Horribly designed from story to technical aspects!

This is my first review of any app so take that into consideration while you read. I’m a HUGE fan of NWN and BG and couldn’t wait to delve into this new game. Once it start I realized this was worse than original Atari Asteroids. First it’s difficult to navigate, as an example trying to hold an item for a description is like beating your against a brick wall. Takes maybe 5-15 tries to work per item. The game is riddles with bugs, extremely hard to work through varies quests, can’t get certain dialogs options to start, and many many places where you’ll miss opportunities and/or items because the game doesn’t allow for all paths to be used. In other words, if you don’t follow their specific path, you’ll not have the chance to save people, talk to others, thereby missing out. Finally, the story is so horrible it’s like a child from the 3rd grade wrote it. Most of the normal character you can’t get right away and most of the other you can have join your party are drow, goblin, and a half orc which all give you a negative reputation. Seriously, why...??? The very end of the game happens leaving a significant character not saved along with a significant villain not even fought. Not a SINGLE REASON to have either in the game yet there and yet every cut scene is with the “Hooded Man” which you don’t even get to fight. Absolute horrible and I’ll sum it all up I’m one word...JUNK!!!
