POWDER

This game is pretty similar to Caves of Qud, but it’s much simpler. Still just as fun to play.

Please please, if you see this please fix this. Powder is my favorite roguelike and is quite difficult to play in landscape mode

Playing the game in portrait mode on modern iOS versions results in a heavily warped screen. I’ve been playing Powder since 2007 on various platforms, and it’s really disappointing seeing the game fall into disrepair like this. Especially when this port has half the game behind a paywall.

Fast download - very nice.

This game truly deserves to go viral in its current state. So fun. So different. I’m happy I can actually play it at my desk at work offline. Love it’s feel so much.

Amazing game that really deserves an update in terms of how it renders on iOS. Most fonts and tiles are unusably bad in terms of how they are rendered. Even the default tiles look quite poor here. It’s sad because the gameplay is the best of any roguelike on iOS.

Great game, but some QoL improvements like higher resolution rendering and full screen display would be nice considering the $10 asking price that’s unique to this version. The scaling tends to look a little wonky, regardless of tile set or whether I’m playing in portrait or landscape. That being said, most people will likely never even get to the point the free version locks out, so I can’t bash it too much.

The game is wonderful, but as a game designed for keyboard/button use, the touchscreen controls can be sub optimal. Not infrequently have I accidentally double tapped A, and cast magic missile or some other spell inadvertently at myself. It is to the gameplay’s credit that despite this, I keep coming back for more.

I love this game, but the Zap function needs to be fixed! A button mechanics need to be reviewed. Thanks!

Powder is one of the few games where the tutorial is actually helpful. Once you learn how the game works, it contains endless replay value. Outstanding.
