Gothic Classic

App Store Editors’ Notes

Phenomenal

A quick short review for now: - Runs at 60fps on 16 pro max with new graphics, although there are fps drops in water, due to fancy water shader - The game includes German, Polish and Russian dubs, besides English, as well as subtitle options and you can mix them like in the desktop version - And more importantly, the classic combat feels surprisingly good with touch controls, hell, I’m a bit biased since I still have Gothic 1 and 2 CDs (3 as well, didn’t finish it though), but it feels better than the combat in Gothic 1 Remake! Even some old tricks still kind of work, although not as good as on a keyboard - There are different camera sensitivity options for virtual joystick and camera control with a right thumb, which makes it possible to make it feel closer to mouse camera control. The default configuration is too sensitive for the joystick, I’d recommend to turn it down. - Runs and looks great on 13” iPad Pro. The game might crash on save, however, if you run it in airplane mode since it tries to cloud save its config. You can turn it off in ios->app->gothic options

Best game on App Store!

This is my favorite game of all times, I can’t remember how many times I played it at school. And now I can play it on my phone while commuting to work. Moreover, at home I AirPlay via Apple TV to my big TV and literally play it as a console game, amazing! Developers managed to preserve all the great sides of keyboard controls from the old era.

Worlds buggiest game

I did 5 playthroughs. On 4 out of 5 I had to delete my entire progress and start over at the end of chapter 6 (the end of the game). Nothing works, you’re hoping to get lucky and not run into a bug that softlocks you from completing the game. At the end of the game you need to kill 5 shamans for 5 swords to fight the final boss. The issue? Killing all 5 does not always get you 5 swords, and there are no respawns. So you’re doing at least 10 hours of playtime just to gamble on will you get the swords. 5 attempts, 1 success, 4 softlocks. Don’t waste your time

Shut up and take my money — Gothic on iPad!

I haven’t even launched the game yet, but this is an instant 5 stars from me just for making Gothic playable on iOS. One of the greatest RPGs ever made, now on my iPad. What a time to be alive.

Best game on ios

This game just keeps evolving, now being able to play this on my phone without winlator is amazing, great port so far

Fantastic port

This port runs great, game is a ton of fun. Controller support works perfectly, definitely worth the purchase!

I want to like it

The controls are so awful and clunky, it makes basic sense exploration and combat nearly impossible. Disappointed at having wasted the money on this :(

Good game

I’m definitely enjoying this classic game so far. The first prison does not seem to be working as intended though. I hope this can be fixed.
