No good
There’s a free game exactly like I don’t remember the name of it . Anyways this game isn’t worth $ plus every time you’re falling from a double jump it pauses and the you get hit and die and have to start over

I Love Goblin Sword
I just finished everything you could possibly do in this game. I’m so surprised how well it held up after all these years; at a point the nostalgia faded and new experiences were formed.
Everything about Goblin Sword culminates into an amazing gameplay experience that I wish I could feel more often.
It was so fun to just pick it up and get a few levels done during downtime. After I beat every level I wanted to buy every weapon and relic, to make little me proud, and I had to grind for about ~10k more coins to finish it all up. I ended up replaying levels here and there and I was surprised how fun it still was. After no time at all I realized that there was nothing left to strive towards and that I was done.
Thank you for making this game,
Preoccupiedude

Exceptional
Truly an honest hit!
One of the best mobile games I’ve played, 10 stars 😅
★★★★★positiveStec · 2025-12-23 · v2.6
Just discovered this gem in 2024
Great game overall and fantastic value. Supports Xbox controller. 👍
★★★★★positiveMangumhead1945 · 2025-11-21 · v2.6
A favorite of the decade
My oh my I’ve probably logged 500 fun hours playing this challenging game. But I’m still only 3/4 of the way through it!
★★★★★positiveMentions pricingAlexM_27 · 2025-10-24 · v2.6
Made by People Who Care
This game is such a breath of fresh air and exactly what a mobile game should strive to be. The variety of environments, the cool fantasy setting, fun gameplay, customization options, hidden levels, amount of content- everything is fantastic, and the developers packed it all into such a blessedly small file size that far less robust games have failed to achieve. The game loads lightning fast, it’s the perfect price, and my only wish is that more devs would care this much about their product. Thanks for maintaining my faith in this industry!

Loved this game
I really loved playing this game. The controls are great on IOS. It’s fun to explore. The levels are challenging, but not frustrating. If you liked Metroid, I think you’d enjoy this. Now that I have finished, I don’t know what to play next.

THE BEST PLAT-FORMER EVER
BUY NOW
★★★★★positivehudie96 · 2025-04-26 · v2.6
awesome game!
this game has been a great bonding game between my husband born in the early 80s, and our daughters. The controls are similar to old Nintendo games, but you can play it on an iPad.
★★★★★positiveMentions pricingCarterboii123 · 2025-01-30 · v2.6
Awesome Game!
This is genuinely such an amazing game, everything about it. I’m trying to think of things to complement the game on and I’m having difficulty thinking of anything because it’s all so good. I’ll say this, this game being free is a crime, the quality and playability with a free price tag is unmatched.

Goblin Sword Is a Perfect 6/5, An Absolute Masterpiece!
I don’t normally write reviews, but Goblin Sword deserves all the praise and then some! This game is the definition of perfection on iOS, flawless retro visuals, tight controls, and a level of replayability that’s off the charts. It brings back the magic of classic platformers with a modern twist that will leave you hooked for hours.
The gameplay balance is incredible, challenging but fair, rewarding exploration and skillful combat. The sheer amount of secrets, treasures, and upgrades makes every level feel fresh and exciting. It’s a love letter to old-school gaming while feeling like a perfect fit for mobile.
If I could rate this 6/5, I absolutely would because it’s just that good. For anyone who enjoys platformers, RPG elements, or simply excellent game design, Goblin Sword is a must have. Do yourself a favor and play this masterpiece, you won’t regret it!
★★★★★positiveNoctilo · 2024-08-03 · v2.6
Fantastic Game!
You simply MUST release this on PS5 Console and all your other games as well!
★★★★★positivemckeesportpaguy · 2024-02-10 · v2.6
Fantastic
Almost like the old mega man games . Hours of fun . Cannot believe there haven’t been any updates in years or a sequel !
★★★★★positiveZieg225 · 2023-12-12 · v2.6
Amazing game!
One of the best games I have played on ios. Touch controls are simple, easy to use, and customizable. Lots of different stages to play, things to collect, and challenges to complete. The game feels very polished and the gameplay is well balanced.
★★★★★positivegabelikestoto · 2023-11-15 · v2.6
Can y’all add more of a super Mario vibe to it?
It’s a great game but can y’all add a little blood?or have a survival mode we’re you just kill monsters a boss rush maybe
★★★★★positivehowDT · 2023-09-14 · v2.6
Still the best
This game gets snubbed in apple’s retro-inspired games lists, and it’s a shame because this is hands down the best modern-retro platform er on iOS. You know that you have hundreds of games you’ve started and only played for a few minutes, but this isn’t one of those. This is a complete game, and it’s incredibly rewarding with the perfect amount of challenges and secrets to explore. I can’t recommend it enough!
★★★★★positiveMentions pricingxor7 · 2023-07-23 · v2.6
Actually good.
I am close to finishing it with almost every secret, and have to say it’s really good.
Those bad reviews complaining about it being too hard or bad controls or horrible collision boxes … those are simply poor gamers.
For 2 dollars it’s a bargain.
★★★★★negativeSkeetopolisPRIME · 2023-07-13 · v2.6
Meh
Boring arduously repetitive levels, bug issues with enemies & platform hitboxes, and none of the armor you collect through the course of the game have any purpose or special attributes. However the game is beautiful and it’s free.
★★★★★negativeaka scythe · 2023-03-19 · v2.6
Sloppy.

★★★★★positivekafka-kun · 2023-03-14 · v2.6
Fun!
One of my all time favorite iOS games. Just a really well done game. I’ve replayed this many times. Wish the dev would make a follow up.

Is there supposed to be music?
Is there supposed to be music on the menu screen? In the first level? At all?

One of the best platformers I’ve played. All I’m asking for is please come out with a sequel. Please consider this.

Best Mobile Game I Have Played
This isn’t even a mobile game at this point. With it being on the Nintendo switch. Got this when it was new. Been through added content. I have generally 100% this game. Literally every single thing you can do in it. Took a lot of time. I managed to do it all while just simply having time to go on my phone and play. While on a long car ride. Before a movie starts. Waiting on something. Things like that. Had fun every second. Worth the buy for sure. Would love to see a sequel or more content added soon hopefully.
★★★★★positiveIIwarriorII · 2022-06-18 · v2.6
Great!
