I’m giving it one star because I am currently experiencing a game ruining glitch. In the lighthouse dungeon there are no stairs populating so I cannot progress. Please fix this or let me know I am missing something. Thank you -- russabor, 2022-11-04 ### ***** "DQ2 is no longer the worst RPG of all time" After beating DQ1, I kept thinking “how on earth did 8 year old me figure all this out?” Answer: it took me 6 months and a notebook where I wrote down clues and mapped the caves and dungeons. I recall as a child starting DQ2 but don’t remember why I didn’t play it after a couple weeks. DQ2 difficulty level has to be 100X that of DQ1. The world is 4X as big, you need a boat, the dungeons are nearly impossible to figure out without a guide/walkthrough, there are 147,000 villagers to talk to and decipher their Ye Olde English clues. DQ1 had a handful of items you needed to acquire in order to complete objectives. I can’t even guess how many were in DQ2. You gain 2 characters, each with their own rules on what armor and weaponry they can don. Do you sell items back to the shops or try them on your partner first? So much thinking involved. It’s a slow go getting started and I bow my head in shame that I resorted to a walkthrough and auto save scrumming. Nonetheless, by the end I was addicted and neglected my wifely duties to beat this game. Wasn’t the biggest fan of Atlas. His power was very random and it didn’t seem fair that he killed my full HP level 36 Princess in one swipe. But what the original game lacked is more than made up for in this version. It plays flawlessly, there are no ads or hidden fees. Very enjoyable RPG. -- AtlSuburbsMom, 2021-11-04 ### ***** "3rd Times the charm…" I have tried three times (at least) since the late 80s to beat this game. The original NES one was a little too hard for me at 9. My second try was on a flash Cart and I there was a save issue so I gave up. Shame on me for not staggering the 3 save slots… ;) I am so glad I saw this through on my iPad Pro. What a Great gaming experience. It was just about perfect related to the little fixes and QoL features. This version challenges the idea that DQ2 was the black sheep of the series. Cheers -- Info_Sprinkles, 2021-10-18 ### ****- "Great Classic RPG, but...." This game is great if you're a 2D rpg fan. I only have one pet peeve about this game, which is the language the game is using or tried to use. I understand the game takes place in a setting of a medieval type of era, but could they at least have the text be in the modern English language? Seriously, I had to analyze each sentence to understand and look for clues of what to do. -- Chivkea, 2021-08-17 ### ***** "Nicely done" The grind is a bit real on this one. The monster encounter rate definitely higher than I recall, plus you must grind levels on about three to four different occasions. After getting all the end game gear and leveling all three characters to 46 the last boss was easy. Played on a iPad, controls were good since you can move by touching any part of the screen. Translation was a bit mediocre. Overall a good experience. I guesstimate about 35 hours to complete the game. Tips: get the falcon blade (bought in town), don’t skip the mad cap (last cave, near end game) both items make a big impact. -- @RataMata, 2021-02-13 ### ***-- "Freezes" With update to iOS 14, the game freezes often on my iPhone 6S Plus. Freezes last for 2-3 seconds, but they happen several times per minute, which really takes away from the enjoyment. Without the freezes, the game would easily get 5 stars from me. Last update was 2 years ago. I wish SE would update this again to work well with the updated iOS. -- jmarx84, 2021-02-05 ### ***** "Great Game" Needs controller support along with landscape view for it. Also the virtual d-pad is in the center of the screen when playing on my iPhone XS Max. -- Mr Sal, 2021-01-15 ### **--- "No iCloud save" I own iPad & iPhone. Can’t move saves between them. Great game but can’t rank higher since they won’t support a basic function. Also landscape mode would be nice. -- Dragon warrior reborn, 2020-11-08 ### ****- "Secret" If you are following the walkthrough that says go up the stairs in Beran and you’ll be in the outside world to Rendarack, but your in a room with an old man, then go DOWN not up to the stairs from the warp. Good game, nice interface, beat Malroth at levels 40, 38, 35. Wish I had know prayer ring has limited number of uses before I sold 2 of them. Poof Dust -- AH64dirtybubble, 2020-10-10 ### ***** "So good" This game is such a great evolution from the fist game. Now you get a boat and party and explore a bigger world with some great call backs to the first game where they both lead up to a great finale in Dragon Quest 3. Definitely worth a playthrough. @squareenix please release Dragon Quest VII 7 to us in English markets on mobile. -- TyleDurden, 2020-08-01 ### ***** "Good" Good -- Thermicbeatle, 2020-04-23 ### *---- "騙子" 怎么沒有中文 -- 游戏江东, 2020-01-06 ### ****- "Shops crash the game" Thanks for fixing the shopkeeper crashing bug. Still, what happened to the unique musical score in Wellgarth/Burrowell? That delightful townswoman doesn't sing for you anymore, and it now sounds like every other boring town. -- Neoguardian, 2019-09-27 ### ***** "I never got to beat this game as a kid!" Now I can relive my childhood in classic RPG fashion, without an older brother taking the controller away. Anyone who played this as a kid will be a bit sad that it’s much easier with the quick save and auto save feature... but it saves you hours of your life too! Especially for gaming on the go! So glad they put this on iOS!! -- LeifBrown, 2019-09-24 ### ***** "I’m back." I finished the second game today. Beautiful experience like the first game, yet more expansive. Felt more alive then DQ1 (to be expected). I wrote long last time so I’ll Make it quick. I can’t wait to start the 3rd game. Everyone talks about how good it is and it’s the 3rd game at that. I got it waiting for me tomorrow. I don’t want to jump right in. I need coffee something to eat and 2 hrs lol. DQ3 here I come. #PEACE -- GIVEME53Y, 2019-08-19 ### ***** "Epic" Really epic game -- bencil sharpeniro, 2019-08-17 ### ***** "Awesome!" I never beat this as a kid growing up in the 80s. Took 30+ years but I finally did it. Awesome game. -- 2-DannyDeuces-2, 2019-08-15 ### ***-- "No sound effects" Great port! But sound effects are not present for iPhone 4s. Hopefully this gets fixed! -- PHItSparrow3_8, 2019-07-28 ### *---- "Poor design" This game starts fun, but goes downhill quickly. The devs way of making the game more “difficult” is to make it more tedious. The fights don’t get harder, no strategy is required whatsoever. The “difficulty” comes from their dungeons, which as you progress through the game, turn into a mess of random doors and hallways that go in loops, or take you back to the beginning. For hours. No puzzles to stump you, no strong bosses to overcome, just tedious guesswork to find the end of a cave. This game is obnoxious, and to be honest the story isn’t interesting enough to bother slogging through the tedium. Save your money and get a better game. -- Baden18830, 2019-06-26 ### ****- "How do I change language?" I know this is a good game and I want to play the game in traditional Chinese but I cannot find where I can switch it. -- Ushered snacks, 2019-05-21 [View all DRAGON QUEST II reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## DRAGON QUEST II Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Paid | Taiwan | Games | #304 | | Top Paid | South Korea | Games | #356 | ## DRAGON QUEST II Discovered Keywords -
