Description

Mike Singleton's '84 classic Adventure Strategy game, brought to and updated for iOS.
"The Lords of Midnight is not simply an adventure game nor simply a war game. It was really a new type that became known as an epic game, for as you play the Lords of Midnight you will be writing a new chapter in the history of the peoples of the Free.
You will guide individual characters across the land of Midnight on vital quests but you will also command armies that must endeavour to hold back the foul hordes of Doomdark, the witch king. Yours will be no inevitable victory." - Mike Singleton 1984
"Lords of Midnight does story-based, large-scope, high-fantasy warfare better than most titles I can think of, iOS or otherwise."
- Rating 4/5- PocketTactics.com
"This is an outstanding remake and developer Chris Wild, should feel very proud of creating such a superb celebration of the man’s work."

"If you love a game, love the game’s creator and want to produce an updated tribute – here’s your benchmark. Almost thirty years old and yet it feels fresh, relevant and completely at home on a touch screen. Recommended without reservation – so good it makes me want to cry."
- Arcade Life
"Original, longed for and a perfect adaptation of a legendary game. Unlike those Spectrum conversions that are strictly for nostalgia lovers, Chris Wild’s Lords of Midnight will enthrall any gamer who thinks he has what it takes for a true battle of wits where only the most brilliant commanders will survive."
- Louise Mensch, Mirror.co.uk
"Lords of Midnight is an experience that everybody with a remote interest in games should have, buying into your characters and developing your own war stories is a wonderful thing. It is a game with hidden depths that deserve to be plumbed and I cannot recommend it enough."

The Lords of Midnight Reviews

I can’t move the characters

The Mighty Gwa on

United Kingdom

I can turn left and right and sometimes it will also move forward but the interface is not working. Such a shame as I love this game been playing it for 38 years

You can’t move

Flamstead on

United Kingdom

All you can do is look around. There’s no instructions on how to move, and no onscreen keys or buttons to do so. You are basically stuck rooted to the spot. A shame as I enjoyed playing this game on my Spectrum in the 1980s.

Great to see this back

LF68 on

United Kingdom

Thank you very much for bringing this back, I loved this first time around and spent many hours of a misspent youth playing it, now I can while away some hours playing it on my phone - absolute class

Roam Midnight, form allegiances, quest, do battle...

Iango82 on

United Kingdom

A classic game in 1984, added to and entirely relevant to anyone who has never experienced the Land of Midnight before. This beautifully presented game sees you looking out from the eyes of the commanders and characters as you mass your armies and deploy your quest and immerse yourself in the titanic struggle against a ruthless, singleminded adversary, Doomdark. Strategy and tactics are needed to endure the nail-biting episodes of war and subterfuge as you wander a believable land and back story. Chris has done a brilliant job in recreating the atmosphere and feel of the original and included a few features to smooth gameplay. Once you enter midnight and look through Luxor's eyes, you will never look back and never be the same again.

Won’t work

Great but...

Played this on the Speccy and love the iPhone version. Worked fine on iPhone 7 with 11.2. Just got an iPhone X and crashes immediately.

Best game ever made

{Deb McGee} on

United Kingdom

When released in the 80's this game was so far ahead of its time - a true work of genius back then. The updated version is very well made and captures the soul and feel of the original spectrum version and brings back great memories of playing this as a kid. Fantastic!

The War of the Solstice has begun!!

Black29 on

United Kingdom

This is a great game. Very atmospheric and has elements of strategy and fantasy, with unique gameplay. I loved the original Spectrum version, and this iOS conversion is even better. So glad the developer has updated to 64 bit so I can keep playing it when iOS 11 arrives.

Tedious

Frost dragon on

United Kingdom

Boring old game that was OK thirty years ago... But time has moved on and this is too random and difficult to be enjoyable. Look elsewhere
