User Reviews

Double Dragon 4 on iOS delivers a nostalgic, well-presented retro beat-em-up with faithful visuals, sound, and a broad character roster. Players praise the authentic vibe, tight controls, and convenient features like restoring purchases and resuming from completed levels. However, it struggles with touch controls, lacks controller support, and gates the full experience behind a paywall after the first level, reducing accessibility and value for players who prefer physical controllers.

Pros

Nostalgic retro look, feel, and soundtrack faithful to NES Double Dragon.
Large character roster with accessible moves, offering substantial replay value.
Tight, responsive controls and improved hit detection compared to the original NES game.
Quality-of-life features like restoring purchases and the ability to resume from completed levels.
Overall authentic, classic beat-em-up experience that fans of the franchise will enjoy.

Cons

No official controller/MFi support; reliance on on-screen controls is widely criticized.
Paywall after the first level to unlock the rest of the game; perceived as a money grab by some players.
On-screen controls are awkward and lack customizable options, making gameplay less smooth for many.

I would buy the full game and their other trilogy, but it's lacking controller support. It's just so buggy using software buttons. Maybe if the virtual controllers were better. Other than that the graphics are sweet just like back in the day.

I was going to but this plus the trilogy for the full experience but sadly there is no controller support which is a standard now across all iOS games. If you are willing to update, please reply so I can follow up.
