About Horn™

HORN is a 3rd person action adventure game - a completely unique experience where anyone can fully explore and enjoy a beautiful and engaging console-style world, all controllable by touch gestures.

You play as a young blacksmith's apprentice named Horn who wakes up to find your village and lands over run by large fantastic, and sometimes humorous, monsters. It is revealed these creatures are actually the people and animals from your village transformed by a curse, and you alone have the power to free them. On your incredible adventure you carry the loud-mouthed head of one such fantastic creature with you - a somewhat uncooperative and ill-tempered but grudgingly helpful sidekick. Along with this new companion you must use your sword, crossbow, trusty musical horn, and wits to explore the lands, defeat the enemies, and solve puzzles in your quest to undo the curse that engulfs your homeland.

Horn features:
∗ Accessible controls that anyone can use- walking, jumping, crawling, even grapple hook, are all performed with intuitive gestures
∗ Freely navigable console-quality detailed world- go wherever you want; not confined to limited path or rail
∗ A rich and unique fantasy world
∗ Touch-friendly melee combat and crossbow style weapons
∗ 3 unique and beautiful lands to discover
∗ Endlessly escalating challenge modes
∗ Hidden side content to discover
∗ Score written by award winning Austin Wintory and performed with full live orchestra

This is an excellent game that deserves much better than its current 3-star rating. I have given it a four-star rating however I would easily update that to a five star if only one thing could be change. 1. Please make this game available offline. I purchased this game and it was well worth the purchase. The graphics are amazing, the combat is well-designed, and the story so far seems to be very well fleshed-out. However I live in an area where signal is spotty and often can't play because of this.

by N####:

Great game. Fantastic graphics. Controls work great for touchscreen - one of the few in depth games that I don't prefer to use a gamepad. Requires powerful hardware to get the best from it but the unreal engine looks lovely here. I found a bug where some sound fx don't stop when they're meant to but other than that a well polished game. I have not needed to use IAPs to progress in the game.

R70%

I want a refund, please. I've had this game for months, and every few days I try to open it. Not ever once has it opened. It looked like fun, so I tried reinstalling, hard restart, etc. Nothing works. If you have a little integrity, please refund my money. I went over time only because I wanted to give it another, (AND ANOTHER) CHANCE. I WOULD LIKE To think I'm. Not SOL because I showed a little faith in you. I'll keep readers up on the results. By the way, caps were just an accident. OPPS! . Such a drag, the game looks like a whole lot of fun.

N70%
by N####:

First of all, before you purchase please check the hardware requirements for this game. Most of these 1 star ratings are simply due to the fact that the person is trying to play this game on some subpar phone or tablet thats not a Tegra 2 or higher. Anyway, the game is brilliant and ground breaking for the mobile platform. The story line is very involving and the UI plays perfectly for touch devices (playing on an Asus Transformer Tegra 4)

by N####:

Don't miss this gem, it's old but it's awesome. The story alone is worth the admission, add perfect controls with stunning graphics and you get horn. Can't even start with a new device without downloading this first. Can't wait to see what happens with the next version. Edit; no Android N support yet.

This was a cool game, a launch title for my 2012 Nexus 7 even with Google using it in the launch event. Now it just crashes, I deleted it and reinstalled and the same thing. Come on dev, sort it out! EDIT: Yay its back! Shame I deleted it whilst it was broken to free up space so now I have to start from the beginning, oh well he he. Glad to have my Nexus 7 launch game back :-)

Best game ever for phones. I'm using the galaxyS5 and works amazing. I want to see more games like this for phones. If your using old software you shouldn't waste your money. If your expecting for new things to work on your old outdated tech maybe you do not have common sense. Plz buy the game no disappointments here. Plz make more games. If you gave it 1star ik your software is old so don't bother making a rate or comments it's known not to work on outdated software. Technology only advances

N70%
by N####:

Won't start on Nexus 7, no reply from devs, and no refund button. £5 wasted, basically. EDIT: Now working on Nexus 7, but not worth the price. Controls are awkward and game is all style over substance. I've added a star to my review, but only because it actually starts now.

One of those games I just play a little of it a day, because I hate for it to end. It alows me to escape and go on an adventure and quest. Very well thought out. Hope another good one like this follws!

N70%
by N####:

I like the game, but I can't get it to play on my Asus Zenfone 2 ZE551ML. Does it not support x64 procs or something? As this phone does have an Intel Atom proc, I would assume thats the issue. Is there any way y'all can fix this?

N70%
by N####:

This is completely ridiculous. How long has Android 4.3 been out with still no support? Will this game ever get updated? I really enjoyed this game on my original N7, but as all of my devices are now 4.3, this game fails to load. This needs to be fixed. Game has been fixed. Back up to 5 stars.

U70%
by U####:

It has potential. Some awful audio sync bugs though and I did fell through the floor once. The combat system could be smoother. And it definitely needs a better navigation system. The graphics on the other hand are simply awesome!

N70%
by N####:

You must have a decent phone or tablet! I upgraded my tablet and havent stopped playing this game! Great graphics, cool story, throw in some dry humor, battle system and controls nice! It wouldnt load on my 100.00 tablet even though it was compatible. Best android game ever!

Z70%
by Z####:

This game exceeded my expectations drastically! Amazing customer support too! I emailed them about a certain request and, to my surprise, they responded the very next day. Great work! It just needs immersive mode.

N70%
by N####:

I bought it for the amazing look of the game on my new Nexus 9 but sadly the upgraded graphics will not work with the Nexus 9, Nvidia shield, and others with Terga K1. It will actually show the lowest graphical quality.

I can't play this game. When I started is black screen then it push me off this app.I really wanna play this game!! Please fix it or tell me how it fix. If finally it not work please refund my money. I faith in your team. Please.

by N####:

Horribly optimized, or rather not at all. It shouldn't lag on a Snapdragon 801. That and it's unbelievable that it has in-app purchases after costing as much as any Android game can.

Received this reply from their support dept: "Thanks for contacting Phosphor Games! If you are running an HTC one X with a Snapdragon chip then the game will not currently work with your device. Due to complications on the Google Play store, the HTC one X with Snapdragon chip cannot be set as incompatible separately from the HTC one X with Tegra 3 Chip. We apologize for any inconvenience this may hay caused you. We hope to be able to support Snapdragon chips in the near future." UPDATE: 3 mos later=same

This game is really fun and I am giving it 5 stars... However it does have an issue sometimes where the character will freeze up and you can't move him and i also have gotten a loading loop where it sits on the loading screen then goes black then back to the loading screen... but even with the bugs this is still an awesome game

Y70%
by Y####:

It is a touch-to-move game. I hate that. Plus the combat is terrible. I don't think over ever seen a worse combat system. You only fight 1 on 1 and it's not free range combat. Don't waste you money like I did. It's a shame too BC ive been wanting to play this for years and I'm very disappointed now that I have

Q70%

Ok, now it works on Nexus 10, but the graphics are super awful, and it crashes often. It performs better on my 4 year old tablet! This is a Samsung device supported by Google, how is it not a priority?

N70%
by N####:

It doesn't work on my device right now, using Huawei Mate 9. It force closes when I try to open it. Please fix, I've sent all my details and would like to play this again.

by N####:

Before following through on a refund, I asked if this would be resolved on the HTC ONE - The reply was "Not at this time. It may be something we do at a later date, but as of now, there will not be additional compatibility coming out for any other devices." Sad to hear, was supposed to be a great game... * EDIT: If the developers aren't going to fix this for the HTC ONE, please remove it as a compatible device. *edit 2* I never followed through on the refund as this worked on my Nexus 7... Not anymore..

N70%
by N####:

Shocking tactics that I hope will be outlawed in the very near future. I bought the game as it was a stand alone experience only to have the company change the goalposts to 'pay to win' shizzle! RIP OFF.... I will ignore all future releases from these devs.

N70%
by N####:

I just can't stand the lack of optimization, especially since this game debuted on the Nexus 7. The cut scenes are totally desynchronized with the sounds. The game gets very choppy every once in a while. I expected better optimization for this game, and I hope the developer actually supports their product and updates accordingly. 5 stars when fixed. And make a freaking exit button.

Its alright. Its fun, combat system is "meh" since its like a whole event that starts and you only fight 1 on 1 unlike Zelda combat. Make this have Nvidia shield tv support!

After the game loads and I go to start the game it shows my character moving around in a blank canvass. So far it only happens once I select to play the story does it do this. Please fix

D70%

I was very excited about playing this game. Come to find out that after I purchased it, I was unable to play it on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4. At launch the game started off freezing while the music continued playing. Then I was met with the main menu as well as a pop up saying "Unable to obtain a license". This really upsets me that I had to go through this numerous times considering that I paid for this. I feel like I was swindled. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!

by D####:

While it's expected that a game will not exhibit the most aesthetically pleasing graphics when made for a platform with so many different specs at any given time (Android), different operating systems, changed codes... It's always possible glitches and UI issues and unpleasant effects will be observed. /// That being said, "Horn" is a very handsome game with a great story and voice acting believable enough to immerse oneself with the right amount of effort. Controls and interface leave much to be desired.

This code is NOT finished. It has more bugs than a sewage plant on a hot summer evening. If you pay for this, you'll regret it. Why do you think there's no demo? Just torrent it.EDIT: So NOW we get v1.0 AND its another 1.7gb download. FAIL

Performing and working great on my Samsung Edge Plus ... These people who are endlessly complaining need to up grade ... And demanding a refund for 1.99$ You must flip burgers for a living ... Ignorance is bliss ... Furthermore this game is worth way more than this price ... Definitely reminds me of Fable with a twist of Odd World Munches Oddesey ... Brilliant work fellas ... I will enjoy playing this all the way through (5 Stars)

First off,the story is great. Imaginative,unexpected,and obviously thought out. The gameplay is good. The controls have a slight hesitation,but it makes your character's reflexes more believable. The graphics are beautiful. The soundtrack is Celtic or Irish or Scottish or something-along-those-lines sounding. You like your main character. The voice acting is spot on. There is a crafting/blueprint system for weapons and amulets,using the 2 resources you collect in world. There is also a costume store.

I am thoroughly enjoying this. I took a chance despite the reviews being poor. And I'm glad I did. It is running great on my device (Droid turbo with lollipop), and looks gorgeous.

IAP's are not working...wth...be warned this game is impossible to complete without spending real cash...and since iap's don't work on the latest Google play update it's impossible to progress. Also the game is graphically great, but gameplay is highly repetitive and gets boring fast.

by D####:

I downloaded this on my S3 and when I tried to play it, it says that it's unable to obtain a license. This results in the software being unplayable. I tried to get a refund, but I wasn't allowed to do that through the google play store for some reason.

I've been deciding whether or not to buy this game for ages and I finally took the plunge. This game is amazing definitely one of the top 5 games I've played on a mobile device. The price may seem a little steep at first but don't let it put you off its well worth the money! Would be perfect if it was updated with support for emersion mode on android 4.4 + would love to play this game on nexus six but the soft key buttons get in the way!

G70%
by G####:

Altough this game seems to have suffered heavily from poor support along the years, I still consider it a 5 star experience. Originally optimized for the Nvidia Tegra 3, today it can take advantage of most of our quad core processors, presenting up to date and still impressive graphics. The gameplay is innovative and fun, and the missions are full of secrets. Amazing.
