Raiden Legacy for Negative User Reviews
✓ Good port, but room for improvementA great port of 4 shooter classics. Just a few negatives. Like others have said, enemy bullets rain down on you almost as fast as yours go out! There seems to be no difference in difficulty levels from easy to hard. You just get more credits on the easier difficulty levels, that's it. Also, why give me the continue screen when I have no more credits to continue? Just skip it and go to the game over screen already!.Version: 1.4
✓ Bad!!!What a disappointment, the commands are very large and cover the entire screen. It cannot be modified from the game. Money badly spent.Version: 1.8
✓ Best shooting appRaiden 1 ; the fire shots from the enemy is too fast, it is too difficult to finish the game even in the easy mode. The game should allow for second player so that game can continue. Not really enjoy it. Too fast; sorry..Version: 1.4
✓ Not customised for iphone 11 pro maxThe screen is too small, and the buttons for the fire, bomb and pause button is occupying like half of the screen. Please fix this asap..Version: 1.8
✓ Not bad.All the fast-paced action of the arcade games are in this app. However, action moves a little too fast for the controls. Your plane should be able to move as fast as your finger does. The game maintains its arcade difficulty and without multiplayer, it's not really fair. Either lower the difficulty or have unlimited continues. Also, Raiden 2 is missing. A sequel needs to be made as their competitors are getting the better of them..Version: 1.8
✓ Need Raiden 2If you guys can add raiden 2 that would be great, that way it will be a true collection..Version: 1.8
✓ Annoyingly large buttons on iphone 7 plusThe pause, fire, and special attack buttons are ridiculously large and fill up almost half the screen. There is no way to resize them, only move them around. They cover up so much of the screen that I can’t even see where I’m flying. Please fix...Version: 1.8
✓ Please update!!!!Please update the game.Version: 1.8
✓ Judge spear unlockableI love this game, but unfortunately you can’t unlock the judge spear on the app; I hope the developers do something about it since is the best jet to play with.Version: 1.8
✓ Raiden LegacyBomb, pause icons are too big and take over the screen.Version: 1.8
✓ I Love it, however....I just bought and played this game for 10 minutes so far. I have been waiting for this game to be made. I love the arcade hits like this. The programmers have made this game well, however, I must complain about the game play difficulty. I don't recall the arcade being this hard right off the bat. Especially for a small screen like the iPhone. As good as the game is, there is no point in making it that difficult so it can't be enjoyed. I suggest allowing for a easy level selection, and I don't just mean providing more credits. The game play itself should be a bit easier. If this suggestion is incorporated on the next update, I will provide a 5 star rating like it deserves. Other than that well done team!.Version: 1.4
✓ Way too fastI agree with other reviews. I was a big fan of the arcade game, and this feels almost twice as fast. You have almost zero reaction time to avoid enemy fire..Version: 1.9
✓ Raiden LegacyGreat ports of Raiden & the Raiden Fighters trilogy, technically. But the touch screen of an iPhone doesn't come close to matching the level of precision control offered by a good game pad or joystick, which these games need to be played the way they were meant to be..Version: 1.4
✓ Too fastI agree with a lot of people, that the game is just way to fast. Plus adding a tilt function to the game rather than using your finger for the controls would be ideal. Thanks for the porting of the games..Version: 1.4
✓ The buttons are too big. Need to make them smaller.The buttons showing on the screen are way too big and they block some part of the game screen. I really think the developers need to correct their sizes or at least put more options for them(the player can reduce their sizes or remove them)..Version: 1.8
✓ Good but not fully satisfiedThe game has so much potential but I find that even on easy mode, the game is still too hard. I think the reason for this like others said is because game speed is too fast. I agree because bullets come in way too fast ! To make matters worst, 80% of the time I notice that it's very difficult to see enemy projectiles because the player bullets take up a huge portion of the screen. Please fix it or you get 3 stars..Version: 1.4
✓ Very poor performanceRuns terribly on an (admittedly) old ipad 2, only 3 games work at all (Raiden 1 crashes before starting). Sound is glitchy/gurgly on all games (unplayable on 4th game) though iCade support still works well. Even at sale price,not worth a purchase. Compared to Air Attack 2, this is unfortunately a stinker. Will be seeking a refund. Shame, as according to other reviews, it should run well..Version: 1.8
✓ Love playing the classics - needs more options!Would be really great if say the original Raiden can have the option to move the game window where you want it as it sits under the iPhone notch, covering up a little of the game!.Version: 1.9
✓ Bad Framerate. Jittery.At one point years ago, this game ran smoothly. For years now it has been very jittery. The scrolling isn’t smooth. I saw that the app was updated so was hoping for a fix. Nope still bad. If it ran properly I’d rate this 5 stars. But currently it’s hard on the eyes and even more difficult….Version: 1.9
✓ No Mfi controller support.Absolutely fantastic game, but completely horrible controls. You have to touch the screen to use. This completely takes you out of the game. I have other games on the label with Bluetooth controller support. I own a NES30 Pro and it works with r-type but not this. Poo's..Version: 1.4
✓ Controls are subparComparing to Cave Games's controls, this is not as responsive. I'm not able to escape billets as responsively as cave shooters. They provide two control modes, but both are not precise enough to show my skill. I hope they take a page from cave, and put out an update as this is killing this game..Version: 1.2
✓ Great game from the coin op days BUTYes this seems exactly the way it was back then. Ready to steal all your quarters. But since it is on the phone I can’t seem to figure out where the quarters go? The lightning port is not big enough. It says continue but I don’t see an add quarter button. Am I missing something? Either that or add a small shield because there are times where it just kills you. No way out it wants another quarter. Would be cool to have a modern Raiden game designed for entertainment and not just quarters and a rogue like. Have jet upgrades and upgrade abilities. Also a little better aspect ratio for the graphics(it seems a bit smooshed to get to fit a phone). The sprite graphics do not need to change at all..Version: 1.9
✓ Stupid screen controlsDumb decision to make the screen like that. Seriously. Tryed a few times to play. Waited for it to be changed. Nothing happens, so deleted app. Let me know when it’s been fixed. Yes fixed because it’s broken, you broke it.Version: 1.8
✓ Too fast!!!The game play in "Raiden" is to fast to play! Please slow it down it was never this fast!! Even the music is fast.Version: 1.4
✓ Slow it down - this is impossibleThe speed of this game makes it impossible to play on a phone. Don’t buy it..Version: 1.8
✓ Controls need to be improvedThere's a lot of content here and four shooters for $5 is a great deal any day. Still, most of us are spoiled by Cave's perfect touchscreen controls. Sure, the original game didn't allow you to move your ship as fast as you can swipe a finger across the screen, so that's why you give us the option for either one! The speed at which my ship moves lags behind my movements, resulting in many cheap deaths and frustration. I'm all for preserving the original games but Its more important to give us controls perfectly suited to the touchscreen than a joystick which many of us don't have. Give us cave like perfect controls and the review goes to five stars!.Version: 1.2
✓ Huge on screen “buttons”I think it’s great except for the giant on screen buttons! Please make option to turn buttons invisible..Version: 1.8
✓ New update Terrible!The new update makes the game worse! Way way too fast - even on easy. Please fix properly. Just make the game run at normal speed and slow down the enemy's bullets.Version: 1.4
✓ Near brokenNear broken. Can’t figure out how to resize the gigantic semi-transparent controls for pause fire and bomb. Makes it difficult to see the screen when half of it is covered. More than once started it to completely unresponsive controls. Very first app I’ve ever asked for a refund for. Meant to be played with a stick, not a touch interface. With the controls and your finger in the way 85% of the screen is obscured..Version: 1.8
✓ Amazing Games, Awful ConversionDotemu ruined what could have been a wonderful thing. All the games in this bundle are real cult classics. But something went terribly wrong in the porting process. They play like jittery messes on new iPhones - Dotemu has managed to make an unplayable mess out of all four games in the collection. Embarrassing for their company that it’s been out for so long and none of it has been fixed. Awful..Version: 1.9
✓ FrozenWhen fighter launches at the start of a new game it is frozen and remains so for at least 5 seconds, in which time usually you lose a life, very frustrating, please fix.Version: 1.9
✓ Great games ruined by poor emulationAwesome games but they don't run properly. As mentioned by other reviews, game appears to be sped up but at the same time there is insane lag when there is too much action on screen. Music cuts out aswell. Touch controls not precise enough. Games are still playable but honestly deserve an update to make the game smoother..Version: 1.4
✓ No this is just not how i rememberThis is such a waste of money why do the bullets in the game have to shoot so damn fast why it’s such a horrible way to be playing stupid people whoever brought this back and for money too so not worth it.Version: 1.9
✓ Fix the gigantic buttons!An otherwise great game is now unplayable due to gigantic buttons covering half the screen. It’s been a while and we haven’t got any updates to fix this issue. Looks like the dev doesn’t care anymore..Version: 1.8
✓ Good, but......This game is decent enough, but would be excellent if it actually had a floating joystick, instead of the awkward way you move your plane around the screen at the moment. Even changing the control method requires you to use both hands to move the ship from one side of the area to the opposite side. This would be a 5 star shooter, except without a virtual stick, this is very difficult to progress through..Version: 1.8
✓ More thought needed for mobile.This game is difficult to play. Maybe it was a difficult arcade game also. But one can tell that this is too much of a straight port to mobile without adapting too muh effort. More thought is needed to make it work better for ios/mobile..Version: 1.8
✓ Too FastThis game is so fast it's almost unplayable. I'd like to see the pace of the original arcade game emulated. Please fix in the next update. A 5 star game otherwise..Version: 1.4
✓ Buttons are huge!Please fix the buttons size (bomb, pause, shoot), can’t see anything on the screen while playing. iPhone X.Version: 1.8
✓ So DisappointedOne of my favorite games growing up. I got this game when it first came out and was immediately disappointed due to the unnatural an incorrect speed of the bullets. Ruined the game for me, but thought the would fix....NO. This is a dream release if they would have done it right..Version: 1.8
✓ False advertising.The game’s screenshots DO NOT represent the product. About half the screen is taken up by oversized buttons you cannot remove that could easily be made smaller if the developers actually put through an update. Do not buy this. It does not match the screenshots..Version: 1.8
✓ Bad controls.Controls are horrid. Don’t buy..Version: 1.8
✓ Was better before update.Since the inclusion of the easy mode the game has become too fast to be played properly. No Raiden was ever this fast. Even the music plays too fast. Slow down the emulation please, then the game will deserve a 5 star rating. I'm sure this is just a glitch that will be fixed. It needs to be fixed SOON..Version: 1.4
✓ Not like the og gameThe game needs work. The bullets are to fast. The pause button needs to be bigger or auto pause while u take ur fingers off the screen. I want a refund..Version: 1.8
✓ Okay but bad controlsI've never played the original Raiden games so I thought I'd give this package a try. My first impression is that the game is good, but upon playing more I found the controls to be somewhat sluggish. Even after adjusting the control settings, the movement just doesn't seem to be 100% responsive. I compare this to the games by Cave, and they seem to have gotten their controls tight and right. Also when playing on the iPhone my finger obscures some of the screen. You need to add a space at the bottom of the screen where you can position your finger and control movement without blocking any of the screen..Version: 1.4
✓ Wow! I've been waiting for this!Great game. I found raiden difficulty is set too high. What about raiden 2? Please add this as an upgrade. I cannot believe this is available in the App Store. Bought it the second I saw it. Awesome.....Version: 1.4
✓ Broken Right NowThe devs have not kept the app up to date. The button are large and cover most of the screen. Very disappointing for an otherwise fine game..Version: 1.8
✓ Bad portThe game plays way too fast. you need to limit the fps to 54 like the arcade otherwise it’s pretty much unplayable as is. i feel ripped off..Version: 1.8
✓ Unplayable...For some reason this game only fills 60% of the screen on my iPhone 12 and there are 3 large buttons that take up at least 40% of the playable area..Version: 1.8
✓ Just OKThe developers just glue and paste. Would love it if they put in unlimited continued, like we all could at the arcade way back then and add some hidden gems, make it more enjoyable. Just don’t glue and paste..Version: 1.8
✓ Needs MIFI SupportHope the developer will add MIFI support. This is the only port of Raiden Fighters games in PAL territories. The 1:1 finger movement is not a great experience of playing it..Version: 1.8
✓ Sorry, don't like the game mechanicsSorry, I'm not loving this one. I've been playing a lot of shooters lately, working my way steadily through Cave's output and, by comparison, this doesn't hold up. It isn't as responsive as Cave's games, doesn't look as good, and just isn't as fun. Your basic shot is weak and when you die you lose your power ups and get punished repeatedly before you can get them back. Maybe it worked well at taking your money at the arcade but definitely needs the difficulty balancing for mobiles. On the plus side, it does run nicely on my ageing iPad 1..Version: 1.4
✓ A bit disappointing.The first Raiden game is unbeatable. I can't continue where I left off? Oh no prob, I'll just beat the first level and this will be fixed! That's at least what happens at my near-by arcade, (dies on stage 2) this level has that problem? How am I supposed to beat the game with 3 continues? Also why does Autofire shoot automatically not continuous fire when the fire button is held? And Why can't I be the Blue ship in Raiden? The other games let you pick your ship so why not here? And where's multiplayer? I'd be nice to play these games with your friends in fact, I'm sure this game was made to be played with a friend. And finally it needs more Raiden games like Raiden 2 and Viper: Phase 1 (A.K.A. Raiden in space) When updated I'll give 5 stars. Thanks!.Version: 1.4
✓ It’s hard to control with fingers need options that gamespeedNeed opinions to control game speed also it has a button controlling on the screen.Version: 1.9
✓ Enemies arsenals too fast!!This is one my favorite!! Please please provide an update to slow down enemies arsenals, it is way too fast even with “easy” difficulty..Version: 1.8
✓ ?????Any updates on making the bomb buttons small again?.Version: 1.8
✓ Purchase package raiden lagacyWhy I purchase the package but it won’t let me download Raiden legacy?.Version: 1.8
✓ Good, but brutally difficult.Plenty of content for $5, but its really hard even when you consider that games in this genre tend to be on the difficult side. Many of the bullets move really fast even on the opening level, and dodging them only gets harder the further you progress as they increase in number and more enemies fill the screen. Your reflexes become useless quickly and you'll have to really on sheer luck or memorization to progress beyond the later levels. Or you can choose the easy difficulty which isn't any easier, but merely equips you with many more continues. Buy this if you love shmups or if you've already played the hell out of all the Cave shooters available on the App Store. In my opinion, Cave's offerings are better designed and have appropriate difficulty curves. And the different difficulty settings actually result in fewer bullets that move slower, not just more continues. This is a good game, four games really, but its not as well made as Cave's stuff. Start there and get this later if you don't tire of the genre after the numerous Bug Princess, Dodonpachi, and Espagulda titles..Version: 1.4
✓ Great games, bad UIReally wish this game handled it's UI elements better, there are huge buttons that take up far too much of the screen on what is already a cramped game..Version: 1.9
✓ This game’s great but…I really appreciate shoot-em-ups, but there’s one problem, the buttons on the screen look too big when played on my iPhone 12, and it can sometimes obscure large portions of the screen, and that it can get pretty annoying, when it comes to selecting your character, especially in the Raiden Fighters Trilogy. I was wondering if you could please update this game to make it compatible for iPhone 12, just to make the buttons a bit smaller, please.Version: 1.8
✓ Needs update iPhone 12 Pro Max iOS 14This used to be a great game on older devices. Not for latest Apple devices. On screen buttons are out of proportion and too larger and takes up 50% of the playable area..Version: 1.8
✓ Was 5 now 1 starWho’s brilliant idea was it to cover2/3’s of the playing screen with large button controls. Use to love this game but it’s been rendered unplayable. Well done developer’s you fixed something that didn’t need to be fixed and completely made it useless.Version: 1.8
✓ Buttons obscure screen waste of $$RIPPED OFF BUTTONS OBSCURE SCREEN WASTE OF MONEY SCAMMERS! AVOID I WISH I COULD GET A REFUND BUTTONS SMALL IN PICS BUT HUGE IN THE ACTUAL GAMES. ABANDONED APPS- ZERO UPDATES IN 3yrs.Version: 1.8
✓ Big buttons?Why do the pause, bomb and ammo buttons take up the entire screen?! Shouldn’t they be in the bottom left hand corner? I can’t find any option to shrink them either so I’m playing with this huge translucent icons covering the screen. Never had this problem before on my old phone....Version: 1.8
✓ Those big buttons...One of the best games of all time...and this version has those big buttons covering a fair bit of the screen 😢 Please update and make them smaller!!.Version: 1.8
✓ Needs a d-padControls are awkward without a touch-dpad... Please add this option in the next update, I love this game..Version: 1.2
✓ Great nostalgic feel, but is only 40% accurate to the originals due to speed and aspect ratioThanks for making this playable on the iPhone. Hats off. However I have some grips with what you’ve made here. 1) the frame rate for Raiden 1 is way too fast compared to the original, almost making it unplayable. Please fix and update 2) the window view for Raiden 1 is totally wrong. It’s not long enough, and your full screen is too long?!? If you had to fix one, please correct the full screen view so it matches the original portrait view we experienced in the arcades. Thank you ;).Version: 1.8
✓ Too fastLike everyone else is saying, IT IS TOO FAST. Please someone fix this..Version: 1.9
✓ Fair GameYeah I agree with “Ice Cap”. This game is great but the fighter jet needs to keep up with the finger and let more continues and or multiplayer..Version: 1.8
✓ Annoying big buttons on the screenThe game is great, but since the last upgrade game got a big digital buttons on the screen, and it’s no options for customize the screen , I give then 3 stars, for respect to the game, but, please Dot Emu programmers, fix this please..Version: 1.8
✓ Not badGame pretty good it tends to crash please fixes.Version: 1.8
✓ A True Time Capsule, But Limited on MFiWow - These original games are of amazing visual, sound, music, and gameplay quality, and it shines here. However, I am using my iPad Mini 2 as a portable console with gamepad, so the requirement to play the game in portrait mode means I can't leave it on my wire charger while playing, killing the battery. Also, there is a glitch where the start button on my MFi Steel Series Stratus does not work, neither in game to continue, or to bring up the emulator's menu. I'd totally play this if it worked better as a portable console game (!).Version: 1.8
✓ Doesn’t support iPhone X/XS/11The on screen controls are huge. It’s a shame because I used to love this game..Version: 1.8
✓ Pretty goodSadly the later editions of raiden are simply bullet hell games and are difficult to play on a phone screen. This makes a lot of the collection frustrating I find, although raiden 1 is a classic..Version: 1.4
✓ BrokenI love the game but the controls are broken. Doesn’t support entire screen so you can’t move the controls off to the side and they cover the game so you can’t see what you are doing. Also, the buttons are way too large! Would be nice if you could drag them to the black border on the sides and out of the viewing area..Version: 1.8
✓ Good but needs better controlsExpects you to wave your finger all over the screen, a virtual joystick would have been SOOO MUCH better. The more I play this to TRY to like this, the more the problems of having your finger obscuring what is going on onscreen becomes apparent, down to 3 stars. And I cannot see the slightest difference whatsoever between normal and easy difficulty.Version: 1.8
✓ Bullet SpeedWould love to play and recommend this game to others, but the enemy bullet speed is ridiculous and makes me want to stop playing. Please update and fix it..Version: 1.8
✓ No RaidenRaiden, the original game just crashes when launching on iOS 9. I am happy to re-review once this is fixed, but for now, it's just 3 stars (because it's not completely unplayable). Please fix the issues!.Version: 1.8
✓ Love this gameReally love this game!! Think it needs a joystick though...Version: 1.4
