User Reviews

Goblin Sword blends retro visuals and modern polish into a dense, content-rich mobile platformer with tight controls and strong replayability. Reviewers praise its affordable price, fast load times, and hundreds of hours of exploration-filled gameplay. However, its most common caveats are punishing difficulty and spikes, plus a lack of updates or a sequel for years. Some gear balance issues and occasional level-design quirks also appear in reviews. Overall, a must-try retro-inspired gem for fans of challenging action, with room for fresh content.

Pros

Tight, responsive iOS controls with easy customization and official controller support.
Massive, content-rich experience—numerous levels, environments, secrets, and upgrades with strong replayability and hundreds of hours of play.
Nostalgic, polished retro visuals and classic platformer feel that still feels fresh.
Great value: affordable price, small download size, fast loading times, and high perceived quality for the price.
Addictive, well-balanced gameplay that rewards exploration and skill, offering a satisfying challenge.

Cons

Extremely challenging levels that require near-perfect execution; some stages feel almost impossible and show sharp difficulty spikes around bosses.
Long absence of updates or sequels; players repeatedly request new content or a follow-up.
Gear/loot balance feels unrewarding at times (armor is cosmetic and some weapons/mechanics don’t meaningfully affect gameplay).
Some level design and balance near bosses can be inconsistent, leading to frustration.

There’s a free game exactly like I don’t remember the name of it . Anyways this game isn’t worth $ plus every time you’re falling from a double jump it pauses and the you get hit and die and have to start over

I just finished everything you could possibly do in this game. I’m so surprised how well it held up after all these years; at a point the nostalgia faded and new experiences were formed. Everything about Goblin Sword culminates into an amazing gameplay experience that I wish I could feel more often. It was so fun to just pick it up and get a few levels done during downtime. After I beat every level I wanted to buy every weapon and relic, to make little me proud, and I had to grind for about ~10k more coins to finish it all up. I ended up replaying levels here and there and I was surprised how fun it still was. After no time at all I realized that there was nothing left to strive towards and that I was done. Thank you for making this game, Preoccupiedude
