Description

[Recommended Hardware] iPhone 6 or Higher/iPad (5th Generation or Better) The phenomenally popular DRAGON QUEST VIII has sold 4.9 million units worldwide, and now it's coming to the iPhone and iPad for the first time! This was the first title in the series to be presented in full 3D, and its exquisitely detailed world has to be seen to be believed! Set off on an unforgettable adventure with Yangus, the bandit with a heart of gold, Jessica, the high-born magical minx, and Angelo, knight and lothario, by your side! Everything you need is here in a single package! Once the app is downloaded, there's no more to pay, as every last shred of content is yours to enjoy. So get ready to play the epic that is DRAGON QUEST VIII from beginning to end—and far beyond! Prologue Legends tell of an ancient sceptre, within which is sealed a fearsome power... When the relic's long-dormant magics are awoken by the treachery of a malign magician, an entire kingdom falls into a cursed slumber, prompting a young soldier to embark on an unforgettable journey... Game Features – Simple, Accessible Controls The control system has been streamlined to work perfectly with modern touch interfaces. The position of the directional pad can be adjusted freely, enabling players to switch between one-handed and two-handed play with a tap of the screen. The combat system has also been reworked, allowing for one-tap battles as well as more complex play. – The Tension System During battle, you can select 'Psyche Up' to give your next attack some extra oomph! The more you psyche a character up, the higher their tension will rise, until they finally reach an insane state known as super-high tension! – Skill Points Skill points are earned when your characters level up, and can be assigned to various skills in order to learn new spells and abilities. This system allows you to perfectly tailor your team to your liking. – Monster Teams Certain monsters found in the field can be scouted for your monster team – if you're tough enough to beat them, that is! Once assembled, your crack squad can take part in the fiercely contested tournaments held at the monster arena, and can even come to your aid in battle! – The Alchemy Pot Combine existing items to create entirely new ones! Even the most unassuming objects could be ingredients for the greatest items of all! Seek out the recipes hidden all over the world, and see if you can cook up something truly special! – The Casino Fans of the series will be pleased to learn that the casino is back, and fully-equipped for fun! This time around, there are three exciting activities to enjoy: bingo, slot machines and roulette! Just don't get so caught up in the action that you forget your adventure entirely! [Supported Operating Systems] iOS11.0 and Above [Supported Devices] iPhone 6 or Higher/iPad (5th Generation or Better)

  • Without voice acting it’s not the same

    Bought this because it’s one of my favorite games in the series. Sadly without the voice acting the game lost a bit of its charm. Also the fact it can only be played horizontally doesn’t help although this is the lesser issue I had with it. Also it looked like some of the cutscenes were laggy despite the phone in using although this could be a me thing.
  • No controller support?

    I’m not sure why you would port a console game with no controller support or landscape mode
  • No sound

    I’m so sad there’s no sound no music and that’s the main reason why I bought the game. I wish that sound was added.
  • No voice actors?

    I played this game for years on the PS2 and loved it. It truly is one of the best dragon quest games. But this port is terrible. It’s very buggy and the control system is trash. No voice acting ruins the flow. But by far the worst part is I literally can’t beat the game. I’m stuck in the royal hunting grounds because I can’t throw the pumpkin onto the log. It glitches every time and throws it onto the grass which doesn’t wake the dragon. It is truly sad to see this beautiful game in such an atrocious state. FIX YOUR GAME!!!!!
  • Freezes all the time

    The game freezes almost Everytime I use the save or resurrection function with the priests! So can’t actually play the game.
  • Please update and add landscape support along with controller support

  • Best RPG Ever

    This is the HD remake of the Japanese version of DQVIII translated into local languages. The music is not orchestral and there is no voice acting. But this is my favorite game ever and the iOS version is the first time I’ve ever played it. I highly recommend it for the music, story, and open world adventure in your pocket. The controls work well, even for just using one hand. And the graphics of this game have never looked better. I highly recommend this game, even in this mobile version. It’s my favorite game of all time. Try it out, fall in love with it, and then pick up the PS2 or 3DS versions to hear voices just like I did. And then keep playing it on iOS because it’s always there!
