User Reviews

Players praise Shantae: Risky's Revenge FULL for its solid retro-inspired action, graphics, and ongoing updates, making it a must-play for fans and offering good MFi controller support. However, multiple users report critical stability problems: frequent crashes and freezes, especially around the final boss and endgame, sometimes locking progress. The iOS port also struggles with touch controls and is not always well-optimized for handheld devices, with some requests for updates to support newer iOS versions. Overall, the game is beloved when it runs, but reliability is an issue.

Pros

Strong gameplay and retro-inspired graphics providing a solid 2D action RPG experience.
Regular updates and ongoing support keep the game current.
MFi controller support works well.
Beloved by fans; a must-play for those into classic 2D platformers.
Worth paying for; good value and faithful port.

Cons

Frequent crashes and freezes, especially near the final boss, blocking progress.
Touch controls and general port usability are poor for boss fights; D-pad design is not ideal for a touch screen.
Compatibility issues with newer iOS versions; crashes after OS updates and calls for updates (iOS 11/16).
Save/progress issues caused by crashes, making it hard to complete the game.

Recent reviews

The game is great. Plays really well and it’s always updated. I do wish they’d update the resolution because it’s really blurry and bad in comparison to the switch version.
