Almost perfect port!
Don’t believe some negative reviews you might have read, this is a great and very thoughtful port of the classic game!
The original game used keyboard for movement, and in iOS version developers had to do something different. To move Twinsen you need to tap and hold on the screen in the direction you want him to move. This is somewhat confusing in the beginning, but once you grasp the concept, it plays very nicely.
Then, to aid potential platforming problems, developers have added visual clues (what is actionable and what is not) and visual guides for jumping and throwing magic balls - things that were not present in the original game, but make the overall experience much more pleasurable on a touch device.
The game is not really playable on iPhone, it’s iPad where it shines, and I’m halfway through it, and must say, it’s still enjoyable. The characters are adorable, the world is full of little secrets and jokes. Voiceover lacks audio quality, but still very nicely done.
I’m just hoping the second game will also be eventually ported to iOS.
