Seventeen years have passed since you saved humanity from the Pfhor...  Durandal, the only surviving artificial intelligence from the UESC Marathon, has kept you in stasis all this time.  Once more, you are called on to save humanity.  Leading a rag-tag band of humans and guided by an insane AI, you are the last hope to stave off the Pfhor invasion.

Welcome to Marathon 2: Durandal®, the second in the epic trilogy of first person shooter games that re-defined the genre.  Experience the pulse-pounding action as you once again defend humanity from the alien Pfhor.

## Classic Marathon 2 Reviews in United States

### ***** "Outstanding!!!"
The lasted version is unbelievable.  High quality graphics with HDR, spatial head tracking sounds and now, a soundtrack. I am so proud to see how this game has been shown love over the years since it was originally released in 1995.  I still have my original copy that I played on an Apple Performa 630.  Back then I had to play with really low quality graphics to run fast.  I never thought I’d get a chance to play with high graphics, especially at what it has today.
-- Deep Thought, 2024-11-20

### ***** "Amazing! Get a gamepad"
I have not played these 3 games in nearly 30 years. Get a $20 game pad on Amazon. The experience is better than the original.
-- danvdb, 2024-04-05

### ***** "Great port, thank you for gyro support!"
Last time I visited these I remember wishing there were a way to use gyro since swiping gets a bit old with boomer hands. But thank you!
-- BoxesUnstacked, 2024-01-16

### ***** "Great classic game, but a fatal bug…"
I enjoy playing this old game from my childhood, glad it’s been adapted to the iPad. Relearning the controls for touch screen is fun, like relearning how to play the game in a way.

I noticed the in several levels, when stepping on a certain square, the gun graphic is replaced by a large black square that bounces as you walk. It makes it impossible to see and game unplayable, especially when 2x guns are activated. The only way to get around it is to anticipate the polygon and switch to a non-essential weapon before you get there. Very annoying. Would be great to fix, and i can give details and screenshots if needed. The black graphic disappears when level is completed…

It would be great to see Forge for the iPad, haha, i know that might be too much too ask. I loved creating and games when i was a kid, and that creative aspect from games has been lost long ago unfortunately. Also, making Marathon playable modern multiplayer would be revolutionary, it was maybe the first FPS to have that option i believe. 

Other than the bug, it is great as it is at the moment

### ****- "Can’t access the transporter screen once level 1 is completed. It worked once but then not since"
It worked once but then not since. Using iOS 16.2 . I have 13 pro max. I’ve deleted and redownloaded, restarted, no fix
-- Chas75456, 2022-12-27

### **--- "Doors won’t open."
I’m using a PS5 controller.  I can do everything except open doors.
-- Samizdat5150, 2022-09-28

### *---- "Needs controller support"
Needs controller support
-- trvstkrvsher, 2022-05-08

### ***** "Great classic gaming"
This was one of my first shooters on PC, and I loved it. Coming back to it so many years later is fantastic. It really holds up and offers the same simple, great shooter experience I miss in many newer games. Guns and movement with no special moves or finishers, or anything else.

Playing with the controller makes aiming a bit more challenging, but playing on normal offers a great challenge while not being overly frustrating. I have a mouse and keyboard for the iPad, but there does not appear to be any support for it, which is a bit of a shame, but not a big deal.
-- Slobbathehut, 2022-04-14

### ***** "Almost perfect"
This is a high-quality build of the classic game from the 90s which was a quantum leap forward for the FPS at the time.

Put a few hours into it and enjoying some nostalgia, 

My only complaint is that I had so much trouble finding out how to invert the y-axis using a Bluetooth controller.   I did do it (or else this wouldn’t be a 5 star review) but it took way too long to figure it out.
-- BmalSuj, 2022-03-27

### *---- "After new update no go"
New update crashes to desktop when starting game.
I’m on iOS 12.4
