Our Expert Score

89/100

The Quest is a gorgeous throwback to the first-person grid-based RPGs of the 90s, like Eye of the Beholder or Might & Magic. As an RPG specialist, I am enamored by its uncompromising dedication to old-school mechanics. The world is massive, hand-drawn, and filled with genuine consequences. If you kill an important NPC, they stay dead. If you commit crimes, the guards will hunt you. This level of agency is rare in mobile gaming.

The turn-based combat is strategic and rewards careful preparation with potions and spells. While the interface might feel cluttered to those used to modern, minimalist mobile games, it provides a depth of control that veteran RPG players will find refreshing. It’s a slow-burn adventure that respects your time and your intelligence. If you want a 'true' role-playing experience that you can carry in your pocket, The Quest is the gold standard.

- [HOL V]: If Shun is exorcised before talking to Chin, Chin will still recognize that and solve the quest.

The Quest is a beautifully hand-drawn open world role playing game with old school grid-based movement and turn based combat.

In the kingdom of Monares trouble is brewing. The governor of Freymore is missing and the island is in tumult. The mages all prophesy a dark shadow looming over the safety of the kingdom. As an Agent of the king, it's your job to find out what is happening and avert any danger.

Choose from five customizable races and an array of skills, weapons, armor and enchantments, and explore a huge world of four cities and a wilderness of mountains, caves, lakes and forests – full of mystery, magic and intriguing challenges. Meet the many inhabitants, each with its own agenda and attitude towards your character. Some will be helpful, some greedy or lascivious or just plain mean. You will have many choices, including some that may place you against the law, along your way to the dramatic ending of your own choosing.

Key Features:

- Pursue a long and dramatic main story and solve many optional side quests.

- Create a highly customizable character and cast dazzling spells, enchant powerful items, concoct potent potions and persuade people to further your goals.

- Discover an open world with interesting locales, day/night cycle, weather, fascinating people, dangerous creatures, readable books, pick-able locks, repairable items, houses that can be broken into, dungeons, traps and much more.

- Play an absorbing card game with three different decks, accessible at the inns.
