User Reviews

R.TYPE on iOS offers a nostalgic, arcade-perfect port of the classic shooter with controller support and progress checkpoints, making it appealing for fans to play on the go. However, the experience is marred by repeated touch-control issues, iOS13/new-device compatibility problems (notches and screen layout), jarring edge-teleport/warp bugs, and general instability that can render gameplay unplayable on some devices.
Pros
  • Faithful R-Type feel with nostalgic visuals and CRT-like scanlines.
  • Arcade-perfect mobile port with strong visuals, sound, and the ability to play on the go.
  • Controller support and compatibility with external controllers (including arcade sticks).
Cons
  • On-screen touch controls are oversized and obstructive, not full-screen, leading to unresponsive or misdirected gameplay.
  • iOS 13/new-device compatibility issues (notches, screen layout) that break the UI and controls.
  • Left-edge teleport/warp bug that sends the ship to the far right during play.
  • General instability/bugs and frequent control glitches affecting playability on some devices.

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.
