Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

App Store Editors’ Notes

Pretty fun game, but needs improvements

I have really enjoyed this game so far, the storyline is entertaining and the fantasy aspect holds your attention. The graphics, although not great at times, really didn’t bother me, and overall the game was pretty enough compared to other games. It’s also just a really sweet tale about two brothers on a quest to save their father! That being said, the controls are terrible, and the game is pretty buggy. I had to restart at a checkpoint several times because the characters straight up didn’t move when I wanted them to move. The joysticks are also badly placed and it doesn’t seem like there is any way to move them, only to make them bigger or smaller, or more opaque. I wish I could leave 5 stars, but for what I paid, it doesn’t quite reach the bar!

Great game,want more

I actually stopped in the middle to write this review because I was so disappointed. This game has been fantastic, engaging, and entertaining, UNTIL... the part where you have to swing the brothers by a rope around a cliff. There were NO instructions or references to anything like this in the tutorial at the start, or the gameplay thus far. I actually thought it was some kind of bug at first, until, in my frustration, I accidentally made one brother fall so he was dangling. I went to setting, and looked at how to use the controls. Nothing. I even googled a walkthrough because I was enjoying it so much until this point. It took me like 40 minutes and god knows how many tries to figure it out. You have to touch the screen (not the joystick,which moves all over the place anyway) and I figured it out by trial and error. In my frustration I have given 3 stars, but I will come back when I finish and give another rating. If this game keeps going like the first part, it is 5 stars all the way. But these iOS controls are NOT intuitive, and some minimal guidance would make the experience a million times better. Rant over Now I’ve finished, and i changed to 5 stars because I cannot give 10 stars. Fantastic game despite small issues with controls

Great but need update to iPhone 13 🥵❤️🔥

I bought it. Yes, it supports full screen? For the 13 Pro Max Expansion, is it completely improved? I don't know that and I'm upset, so the game could be improved further. The game needs a complete optimizer update. I hope so. But what I liked most about the game is that it supports small control buttons, but I hope that an option to minimize the transparency of the buttons will be added, because it is very visible and annoying. And Activating automatic play for one character, which of them you want to play and which of them should be automatic. This is how playing with seventy-five is very difficult on the phone. like the “Unruly heroes” game. Thank you very much, for your great game. I hope the second season comes soon

Some ups and downs to the game.🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

First of all the controls are terrible! I can barely even make the brothers walk smoothly without having one of them walk into a wall! Second of all the graphics are horrible! Whenever the weird ugly troll with mushrooms growing out of his pale un tanned back climbs up a wall you can see his hands glitching a lil. Now to the positive stuff. I love ❤️ the levels and the sense of nature! the game just never gets boring! During some parts the game is just kinda a stress reliever, for example canoeing through the smooth beautiful water and walking through the beautiful woods. Besides the controls and graphics this game is amazing! I highly recommend this game! 😊 😊

Not Optimized for IPad mini 5

Don’t get me wrong this story is riveting and is so well done. However as another reviewer who played this game on the same device as mine, their iPad mini 5, mentioned, the graphics and rendering of images are messed up, and it stutters. This device uses a A12 chip so there is no excuse, it just hasn’t been optimized to work on newer devices. However it ruined the experience terribly even though it is such an amazing story. Without spoiling, the levels near the end were in one word jacked up completely at times. It would show character models walking in thin air because the ground wasn’t rendering and was invisible. As with other objects including walls and objects you had to climb. Even an important character. I had to guess my way through. It was horrendous. Please fix so I can replay and completely enjoy this game as it was intended, and I can give this game the rating it deserves.

Highly recommended!

I like this game a lot! The story is great, deep and has great morals. I hardly liked fantasies with fantasy creatures because they were too idealistic for me, but this is great!!! I loved how they combined fantasy elements with a realistic world. It helps you accept reality insteading of escaping like other fantasies do. And unlike fantasies, the game requires you to use your brain to solve situations rather than using magic to get out of them. I love this story! It’s pretty serious, but very good morals. Love the scenery, design and music! And I love the ending! This is a great app idea, I wish they have more like this!

I won’t forget this one!

I’ve played this all the way through with my 6 year old son, twice now! It’s a great bonding experience. The graphics are wonderful and the music is magical. You need to work together to figure out and complete the very interesting puzzles. There are many surprises along the way. I’ve been playing games for many years and this one stands out for the many directions your heart will get pulled. Well worth your time. If they make another, I would purchase without question.

Absolutely Incredible!!!!

I’ve played this game 3 times and it still never gets old. I keep hoping there is more. Every year I look up “brothers 2” I was thinking maybe this time the younger brother can have a baby brother because the dad married someone else or something. And then it shows the younger brother and his baby brother at an older age and they go on another adventure. I love all the details and the graph Inca are amazing. Please make another one!! I can’t get over how much I love this game!!
