"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." - Rating 8/10 - Metro "#1 - Top 5 iPhone and iPad games of the week" - AppMyWorld.com "If you're interested in classic games, especially fantasy and/or strategy games, Lords of Midnight is a must-have." - Rating 4/5 - TouchArcade.com "App of the Year!" - Rating 5/5, Mirror.co.uk "It's an unmissable remake. Few titles weather the storms of time as well as this solid-gold classic." - Rating 4/5 - PocketGamer.co.uk "A must own title; pure genius and extremely entertaining. Recommended." - Rating 98/100 - Arcade Life “Made of extremely bright colors and clean lines, a stylistic choice that was and still is very original.” – Multiplayer.it "Despite the perfectly adapted touch controls and crisp graphic presentation, this is a proper 1980s they-don’t-make-’em-like-they-used-to game" - PocketTactics.com "#3 - Top 10 iPad games and apps of December 2012" - QualityIndex.com "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." - KoruCottage.com iOS Best Port/Retro Gamer of the Year" - Arcade Life Please check out www.thelordsofmidnight.com/blog for news on updates and new features to come... ** PLEASE NOTE ** You need iBooks installed to read the Novella. ## The Lords of Midnight Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple126/v4/14/ff/02/14ff029a-f159-b661-3063-7d756f6570e2/mzl.irqjuuwj.png/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple116/v4/a2/7a/3d/a27a3df8-738a-d256-7400-bda876838e9f/mzl.jlesdeyf.png/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple126/v4/cb/88/f0/cb88f03f-4299-f672-c4eb-a637f58dc07a/mzl.irfvsfxi.png/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple126/v4/2f/ad/a8/2fada851-6891-1482-fe66-142fe0677e8e/mzl.pqeveiqt.png/960x640.png) ## The Lords of Midnight Rating Breakdown in United Kingdom - 5 stars: 21 (78%) - 4 stars: 2 (7%) - 3 stars: 0 (0%) - 2 stars: 0 (0%) - 1 stars: 4 (15%) ## The Lords of Midnight Reviews in United Kingdom ### ****- "Thanks for the update" Thanks for the update. No shaded problems -- guvnahs, 2025-04-01 ### ***** "Takes me back!" Absolutely thrilled to find this old 1980s brought back to life - it’s absolutely perfect and still just as much fun. Amazing to think how far ahead of its time the original was. Massive thanks to the developer for the personal time investment to succeed with this project - I can’t thank you enough. Highly recommended to those not familiar with the original too. -- danilosilva44, 2024-10-31 ### *---- "I can’t move the characters" 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 -- The Mighty Gwa, 2024-03-11 ### *---- "You can’t move" 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. -- Flamstead, 2024-02-05 ### ***** "Great to see this back" 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 -- LF68, 2022-02-01 ### *---- "Lords of midnight" Can’t move playrtbpoor game -- maud gertiehelga, 2022-01-08 ### ***** "Roam Midnight, form allegiances, quest, do battle..." 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. -- Iango82, 2019-10-19 ### *---- "Won’t work" Doesn’t work on my iPhone XR -- Sheldonv1, 2019-06-30 ### ****- "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. -- Mcmuffy, 2017-12-12 ### ***** "Best game ever made" 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! -- {Deb McGee}, 2017-06-15 [View all The Lords of Midnight reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Apps Similar to The Lords of Midnight - [Six Ages: Ride Like the Wind](https://apptail.io/app/six-ages-ride-like-the-wind-KPf/united-kingdom) - [PVKingdoms](https://apptail.io/app/pvkingdoms-PEdc/united-kingdom) - [Labyrinth: The War on Terror](https://apptail.io/app/labyrinth-the-war-on-terror-jNDc/united-kingdom) - [Hex of Steel](https://apptail.io/app/hex-of-steel-inke/united-kingdom) - [Fury of Dracula](https://apptail.io/app/fury-of-dracula-jrte/united-kingdom) - [iBrogueCE](https://apptail.io/app/ibroguece-fDgl/united-kingdom) - [BTFields: 策略战斗](https://apptail.io/app/btfields-Penm/united-kingdom) - [AD3000: 太空漫游](https://apptail.io/app/ad3000-Tzqm/united-kingdom) - [Six Ages 2: Lights Going Out](https://apptail.io/app/six-ages-2-lights-going-out-QIen/united-kingdom) - [Uciana](https://apptail.io/app/uciana-Buqn/united-kingdom) ## The Lords of Midnight Available In - [United Kingdom](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/united-kingdom) - [United States](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/united-states) - [Sweden](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/sweden) - [Australia](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/australia) - [Spain](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/spain) - [Germany](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/germany) - [Italy](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/italy) - [Denmark](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/denmark) - [Israel](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/israel) - [Russia](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/russia) - [Canada](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/canada) - [Singapore](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/singapore) - [New Zealand](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/new-zealand) - [Japan](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/japan) - [Ireland](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/ireland) - [Portugal](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/portugal) - [Finland](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/finland) - [Malaysia](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/malaysia) - [Nigeria](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/nigeria) - [Peru](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/peru) - [Pakistan](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/pakistan) - [Saudi Arabia](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/saudi-arabia) - [Slovenia](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/slovenia) - [Thailand](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/thailand) - [Taiwan](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/taiwan) - [South Africa](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/south-africa) - [Argentina](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/argentina) - [Azerbaijan](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/azerbaijan) - [Brazil](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/brazil) - [Belarus](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/belarus) - [China](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/china) - [Colombia](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/colombia) - [Dominican Republic](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/dominican-republic) - [Egypt](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/egypt) - [India](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/india) - [Iceland](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/iceland) - [South Korea](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/south-korea) - [Kuwait](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/kuwait) - [Kazakhstan](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/kazakhstan) - [Lebanon](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/lebanon) - [Malta](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/malta) - [Mexico](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/mexico) - [United Arab Emirates](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/united-arab-emirates) - [Vietnam](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/vietnam) - [Bulgaria](https://apptail.io/app/the-lords-of-midnight-MBKd/bulgaria) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
