★★★★★ On iPad Pro this game just freezes and lags. When it eventually wakes up my ship has crashed :( I want my money back!
★★★★★ Doesn't work well on iPhone 12, kinda sad cuz this is on of my childhood games but I guess oh well.
★★★★★ I was super excited to play this. Just purchased it. As I'm playing, not even 30 seconds into the game, the little spaceship teleports from the left side of the screen to the far right side of the screen, crashing into…

★★★★★ Seit dem letzten Update werden die Steuerbuttons in RIESIG dargestellt und nehmen nahezu den halben screen ein.
★★★★★ Used to love playing this game. But it is almost unplayable now as the menu controls take up the whole screen. As it's not full screen if you finger goes slightly off the screen, the ship races forwards and crashes.…

★★★★★ Doesn't support entire screen.
★★★★★ No iOS 13 support I want my money back!
★★★★★ Touch controls are disaster for shmups. RType II is wonderful. Time to get the classic one up to snuff guys
22 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ Still a really hard game though, and it easily takes me an hour of trial and error to beat each level, but I want to keep trying because I'm having so much fun.
★★★★★ Massive dead zones on either side of the display that could be used for touch navigation makes this game too hard because your finger blocks enemies
★★★★★ Amazing blast from the blast.
4 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ No ads, great control, instant respawn.
★★★★★ The only difference from the original is the you can move as fast as u like, so the speed power up doesn't really do anything, the speed power up was important in the original.
★★★★★ Danke an die Entwickler !!!! Genauso schwer wie früher 😆! Einziger Minuspunkt - Die Musik ist leider nicht wie im originalen ersten Teil.. Trotzdem absolute Kaufempfehlung!

★★★★★ This app is truly amazing and is perfect for picking up for 5 minutes to try get past the next level, only problem is it's got that "just one more go" addictive quality to it, so 5 minutes can turn into 30 minutes…
★★★★★ Quality to see it still alive, a proper classic!
★★★★★ Quality old school classic
3 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ It also has controller support, and that is how I usually play it, and the touch icons go away with the first button you press on the controller.
★★★★★ Just one request, please update it with Bluetooth controller support.
2 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ 「操作性が〜」というのは最初だけ 指の腹で広い面積当てるとゆっくり動けるので2ボスの安地も6面も大丈夫です むしろスピード関係なく動かせるんで、AC版に多い「スピード取らされる」が無視できて楽です 進むたび「無理！」って思うけど、EASYで繰り返せば勝ちパターンが見えてきます
★★★★★ I would recommend playing the game on normal and not making it easy on yourself.

This ported version of R Type is just like the original cabinet! I did have to mess around a little bit with settings to get it to be as classic as possible with no auto fire and get the screen to be in the correct ratio plus get scan lines to work, but overall DotEmu did an excellent job with making a ported version of R Type!
…of an arcade classic. This is true to the original, and just as hard! Controls have been fixed, plays great on an iPad with no issues - other than my own inability to dodge those lasers…money well spent and still haven’t made level 8 😅
The gamepad support (PS4) is laggy. Death will collect you.
Great game however, it is buggy if you run it on an iPad. Your spaceship will randomly jump from the left side of the screen to the far right.
Die Darstellung ist zu sehr in die Breite verzerrt (besser seitlich schwarze Ränder lassen).
