Gurk II, the 8-bit RPG

I liked Gurk 1 enough to pay for Gurk 2, and I like this even more. The menus are much better, but not quite perfect. You can get used to them though. My only real issue with the game is that you can't turn off the music. A patch for that would be nice. I really appreciate that there are no in app purchases, and that it doesn't require crazy permissions. This game is your battery's best friend. You can play for hours, and it uses less battery percentage than standby. Turn your screen brightness down, and you can play for days on a charge. Gurk 2 is good enough that I'm going to buy Gurk 3 also, and just hope that the music can be turned off. Thanks for the great game series!

Fun game, hours of entertainment. My only problem is I like to listen to music or podcasts while I play and it's hard to do with no control over the volume of the game. 4 stars because of that.

The graphics are beside the point... pretend you've unearthed your (grand)dad's C64, and learn to appreciate pure classic RPG game play: loot, and improving your characters' fighting abilities.

It's a dungeon crawl, but I doesn't pretend to be anything else. The controls are better than Gurk l and the playing field is bigger, but the spirit is the same. I've played it through multiple times.

Compared to Gurk 1, I found this game far superior. After having played Gurk 1, I rated it and said that I'd play a Gurk game with story, maybe even complete it. Here I am, having completed Gurk II and I absolutely love it. Awesome game. Great combat, incredibly simple yet very tactical. I loved the last dungeon, but the boss was a bit easy despite no XP grinding. Top 3 of phone games for me!

This would have easily been 5 Stars.I purchased it and to my surprise the game only utilizes half my screen. Looking at maps was ridiculous.

Gurk II is a great RPG with an art style reminiscent of '90s RPGs and is a fun game to play if you have some spare time. At 99 cents this deal can't be beat!

Love the game but am unable to do one of the quests. I have the Oolan Superior quest but the obelisk will not move to allow me to pass.

Really fun game to play, I love the gameplay and music. Really like how the enemies get cooler looking and harder.

My biggest issue with this game is how empty the dungeons are. In all but 2 places, theres absolutely no point in clearing the map-theres no treasure or hidden guys to talk to or anything to give you a sense of reward for exploring. Even Dragon Quest/Warrior had that. It does have a simple plot, which is a definite improvement over the first one, and it is entertaining, but I dont understand people thinking its as good as an old 8 bit RPG. Its saving grace are the battles and huge amount of items.

I loved Gurk I and now Gurk II, but a lot of times, I just want to listen to an audiobook or my music while I play. This is almost impossible as there's is no way I know of to mute the sound. I would have given this game 5 stars if it were not for that. Can we have an update with a "Sound on/off button"? Other than that, you've gotta get this game. It's so much fun!

Just finished the game. It is a great expansion to the original. Simple but interesting story line. The difficulty was just right - not too hard ... not too easy. Controls are a bit clunky but it didn't detract from the enjoyment of the game. Pretty sure I'll be giving the 3rd installment a try.

Controls can be a bit tedious at times. Wish it had touch functionality for menus and a push and hold for moving, otherwise perfect.

The game seems a nice as original Gurk, but please make it possible to mute the sounds. I always play games while listening to an audiobook or my own music. The game soundtrack is nice, but I don't want to listen to it exclusively throughout my playthrough

The Gurk franchise is GREAT! And Gurk 2 is the best out of them all!

This game surprised me positively, it's a fun and straightforward "old school RPG" that delivers well.

I played through and enjoyed Gurk but this one puts its predecessor to shame! I only just downloaded it not 10 minutes ago and already I love it. It doesn't take nearly as long to get into. The music and SFX are enjoyable and I really like being able to cherry pick your party from the start. A great added touch!

Great game - better than the first. Longer & more involved.

So much fun for so little money. Support this guy!

Please continue developing sequels!

Charming little RPG. The first Gurk was already very enjoyable, but this one improves on it in almost every way. Looking forward to completing it!

Not what I expected but it's ok I guess

For the price, a solid rpg.

Great game, has some issues though, with programming, and there are a few things I would do differently in the game itself but all and all this franchise has potential and I'm looking forward to the next title.

This game is awsome! Gameplay is fun and the difficulty seems to be perfect (edit: after i finish the game, i can say that it was a bit too easy for me). Thanks for this game! So rare are the games i buy on the store because none of them are realy to my taste. But this game is worth it! I think its only the second game i finish since i have an "intelligent" phone. And is going to stay my favoritw game for a long time.. well, until i finish Gurk III i hope :)

Worth the money! Only problem so far is that the sound affects in a battle almost can not be heardover the music. The music is cool by the way. This game is awsome!

After gurk 1 I didn't think they could do any better but somehow they managed, I loved the map and the boat addition and the new monsters and much more! I'll be getting gurk III tomorrow and I can't wait to see what it has for me!

seriously this game is great. if you liked gurk, you'll love gurk II.

Its surprisingly awesome, definately recommend it

This was a better story than the first episode. The interface changes were graphically nice though I felt that the old controls were more responsive.

Wonderful design and combat is streamlined yet involved enough to allow for ample strategy. This is by far one of the very best games on android, hands down.

This game is great fun for exploring new Ares and questing. I loved the Ultima games and still play them. The two things I would love to see where this game could do even better is to add more character customization within each class as you level and the ability to name characters/name main character.

Absolutely worth the money. Excellent gameplay, design, great items and great soundtrack. I found a few bugs however they are not vital to gameplay so I wouldnt worry much about them, but the ships can go on the lava and when you purchase more than one ship, if you travel on the same square as another ship it will be absorbed, and you are left with one. Lastly the eastern castle where you can purchase a ship has a square in the water directly to the south that you can walk on. overall great game!!

Slack jawed indeed. Can't get enough of this Ultima style gameplay! :-)

It's very much like Ultima III that I played in the 1980's...and that's a great compliment! I have written games like this myself...VERY nicely done! Thanks! I will be trying the other gurk games as well.

Only had one problem,finding the last Axis Key!!! Over all play Excellent !!! I've played all three Gurk Games,this is the best so far!!! CAN'T WAIT FOR Gurk 4 The last Key is in the Tower!!!

Gurk 1 was good, but 2 was awsome! Fixing to get gurk 3!

Well worth it!

Best old RPG ever!

I love it. Reminds me of the old dos games I still play on my computer. Works great.
