Journey

Note: You can increase the game resolution and graphics by going to the the game setting listing under the setting on your iPad or iPhone. Go to the app setting from there and you can adjust it to be higher for those who complained about the graphics. Idk why they didn’t put the option in game but it is there. I had no problem with the game controls. They worked perfectly in my opinion But it was rare that you pair with some one there seems to be connection issues which make staying with a person the entire game difficult which ruins the experience some. There are glitches that can be addressed as well but they seem to appear only when playing with another person so they might be related. But how I love that I was able to play through this lovely game on my iPad mini. I played this on my iPad mini 5 and it played flawlessly. Love love love the visual and story is very good.

I’m a huge fan of this game, the first version I ever played was on the PS3 which I still have, but wanted to give this version a shot because it is my FAVORITE game, and their other game called Flower is great on the iPad. I played through this version of journey once, and it was beautiful! Obviously the controls aren’t perfect but it’s still completely playable. However, my biggest complaint is that not once did I encounter another player. And that’s the MAIN trait about this game. The journey is beautiful and difficult and tragic but the beauty of it is that you experience it with another player. I’ve played before as a solo player and while it’s doable it’s just not as interesting especially as a player who is very familiar with the game. Please fix this issue and you will get 5 stars...the game is truly a beautiful masterpiece!

Let’s get one thing clear. I LOVE this game. The graphics are amazing, but, on one level, you are jumping with little scarf strips, I was doing fine, but my iPad died. Okay, no big deal, I plug it in and do something else. The next day, it’s weird, the scarfs are gone, making it impossible AND the fog which seemed weird, was making ripples whenever I hit it as I fell over and over trying to reach the darn post thingy. SO ANNOYING. I had to reset and start my progress ALL OVER AGAIN. Game makers! This is your job! You should probably increase her flying capabilities so that she can pass the levels and not make me want to smash my iPad in! I don’t play a lot of video games but this is so annoying. Whatever, I’ll go back to Altos Odyssey. In the meantime, fix the darn thing!

I purchased this app a week ago and I had forgotten what a beautiful sandscape Journey is. The sand is so fluid it’s hard to imagine it was originally released years ago on playstation 3 but now it exists on the iPhone. The controls aren’t terrible now that they’ve been adjusted to feel more like Thatgamecompany’s other iOS title Sky. I had no problem with them. My problem occurs every time the game auto saves (which is frequent). I lose all sound and have to force quit the app to get audio back. Audio is a huge part of this game so I hope it can be fixed soon. Online seems to work though. Ran into my first other player briefly and that was it. So excited for that. hope to see more players.

The game is absolutely fantastic, but this port is incredibly frustrating, due purely to its camera controls. The game was originally made for ps3, and as such the right analog stick controlled the camera. This made perfect sense for a console game, but they didn’t change this for the mobile version, you now control it with a digital analog stick, which doesn’t even begin to work. Basically, you no longer control where the camera is, you now control the speed at which the camera moves in a given direction. Once again, this makes perfect sense on PlayStation, but mobile has so many better options for camera controls. If you really want a mobile Journey, go get Sky: Children of the Light. It’s pretty much a 1-1 recreation of Journey, with slightly different locations, made by the same people, and it’s free. It’s infinitely better than this in every way.
