The Quest Classic - HOL II

This one is a bit hard to recommend. Many of the quests give you little to no direction as to where you should go or how to solve it, which requires you to basically cycle through every area of the map tapping every object, door, character, over and over again. Like HOL 1 Zarista games has shown that they are great at using the quest engine to make interesting areas, but the quest design often requires searching the internet for a solution. There are about 2 towns with a designed layout but most of the towns and villages are just huts and buildings strewn around randomly, as compared the cool, structured cities of the original game and the fire and ice expansion. This lack of design in the towns is an issue in a good number of quests because they require you to talk to someone in a certain town—meaning you literally have to systematically tap every single door to find them, and 90% of the doors have the message, “No answer”. I can’t stress enough how obscure this expansion is. Be prepared to look up old forum posts to find the solution to most of the quests. Despite all of this, like the previous Zarista expansion I played, HOL1, this expansion has a lot of charm and personality and you can tell that the designers put a lot of love into the project. If you are a hard core Quest fan, grab it. If you are a follower of the Lukomorye storyline, grab it. If you, like me, are adamant to use a single character across all expansions, grab it, but just know you are in for a tough time, as this expansion took me a long, long time to come close to finishing, due to the need to constantly revisit old areas to look for some new thing I’m supposed to find or person I need to talk to. If none of these things apply to you, you probably aren’t reading this review.

So annoying I quit in frustration. There is no rhyme or reason to any methods of play. Sometimes you tap things. Sometimes you hit them with your weapon. Basically you have to tap and hit everything in this game to cover your bases. It's just lazy developing. Sure they can claim 30 hours of gameplay but that's because of the above. Because you have to navigate annoying maps designed to trap you in with trees or run down endless corridors. Every quest has you running in circles. Talk to her talk to him find and object talk to her again talk to him again. Grrr. You should not have to be running to the internet every single quest to find out what random thing to tap. Lazy. Badly made.

The Quest is by far my all time favorite game on my phone. I won't admit how many hours I have spent playing this game. This latest addition is awesome!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!

The Quest series is amazing and I have to say that the expansions are amazing! One problem though that they do not tell you about on this page. If you bought "The Quest Gold" over the regular "The Quest" as a starter game for the series, do not buy the following expansions : Hero of Lukomorye 1, Hero of Lukomorye 2, Islands of Ice and Fire. These come pre-packaged within the Quest Gold from the beginning. If you do what I did and bought this by accident, you will know it when you get the error that says "The Quest version 4.0 or later must be installed." Upon researching the internet I found out why. Hence I am warning others from making the same mistakes I did. If you own "The Quest" this will work for you with no problems. If you Own "The Quest Gold" don't buy this or the other listed expansions mentioned. They come prepackaged as part of the premium gold package when you get that application, which is a great deal by the way to kick start you off to the game. Other than that, great series chock full of entertainment. On the side if you buy any expansions outside of this, get the expansion "The Cursed Chess Set" best way of starting off a new character with tons of amazing equipment and so much money.

The entire quest series is addictive and fun. I own a ps3 and have plenty of games for it, but I have played the quest series ten-fold

I have loved the rest of the series and highly recommed it. Yet I was in the mole cave and exited the game and now I try to go back and all my stuffs gone!!!!

Great expansion. Must buy app.

The Quest series is so incredible. I have but only 3 recommendations. 1: Fully repair single item icon (when using repair hammer it fully repairs the item or completely dulls the repair hammer) 2: This isnt really needed but itd be cool if there was some multiplayer, open feint achievements, and scenarios that require more than one player to conquer an enemy for epic items 3: More Alchemy, heal full health and mana potions should be tuned to certain high amounts for whatever xpack they are in. Cant wait for next xpack!

Huge quest fan but I've yet to get this app to open for me to play. It only crashes and I'm updated on everything with my iPhone.

Dammit, quit making me buy expansions, you're awesome game is making me broke.
