Knowing that developer Mika Mobile is just two people, I tend to give them a bit more slack when the development of their upcoming games takes a super long time or if some of their existing games don’t get updates all that often (or at all). And as you probably already know I’m a pretty big stickler for games supporting the full screen of the iPhone X and other newer iOS devices. Last year’s excellent Battleheart 2 featured that full screen support, but none of Mika’s previous games do, and while that’s definitely a bummer like I said I’m a little more forgiving knowing their limited time and resources. As long as their new games going forward supported all the new screen sizes, I could live with that. But then a few weeks ago Mika went and shocked me by announcing that they’d be releasing a modern device update for their Battleheart Legacy ($4.99), which is easily my favorite of all their games. I was overjoyed, as I’m sure other fans were too, and today that update has gone live in the App Store. Here’s a before and after comparison.
Look how much more of the scene you can see. It’s? glorious! It’s been a hot minute since I’ve played through Battleheart Legacy, and today’s update is a great excuse to do so, so I’m very excited to start up a new game. Of course Battleheart Legacy is the type of game that’s meant to be played over and over and over again until the end of time, so...
