I like it , it's a good game but you can't pass level 3 when your playing, they make the character SUPER over powerd you can't even pass it because you can't use your powers, the other characters can stop your powers , dont spend your 3 dollars in this game ,go spend it on metal slug 1 made by snk that's their only good game
The game is super fun, brings back so many childhood memories. Each fight is complex than the last, all the way through to Orochi. I love the game!!
I adore KOF 97 as well as 98. I've been watching the older kids play fighting games since art of fighting invthe arcades but I truly started to understand and play KOF when 97 released. Touch controls need a lot of work especially with response. Why the game suddenly stopped working with Android 11 no one knows and currently the game is unplayable till they update for newer handsets. This is a massive letdown!
Don't feel like giving 2 Stars because it's my favourite fighting game, but any CPU Character you come up against in any difficulty Level, even if it was set in Level 1, the CPU boasts extemely powerful Combos (Especially the Girl Characters and Soldier types). Also the CPU Characters keep guarding no matter what, until their guard is broken, now by this time you are so tired that you'll be KO'ed even with simple moves and there should be Training Mode. Lastly, The bluetooth mode needs fixing.
It's rather good and I love SNK but wouldn't a game like the "Real Bout" series be way more perfect for mobile? Great characters, an amazing and simple setup for auto-combinations that would work perfectly for android screen tapping! Give us some love SNK!!! REAL BOUT FATAL FURY!!!! ....and maybe some "World Heroes" while your at it 😁😍
The unpacking errors for newer Android versions are fixed in this too. Fun game! 😃
Great game just hard to play with touch screen. Definitely need a controller to play. Game is very challenging even on the easiest level.
Difficult lvl 1 and lvl 8 is same ,then why you set the difficult lvl for that?
Literally doesn't work! Either take down the app or update it to work with modern devices and firmware. It was trash even prior to this though since this was a raw arcade port and didn't even include practice mode.
Childhood memories kind of game, pair with some good Bluetooth controller and your good
I love this game although the joy stick is difficult to use And the Bluetooth mode doesn't work with my Samsung Galaxy s9 But it does work with my Samsung j3 For some reason at level 3 it becomes extremely difficult to pass it! Someone else in other comments had already said this
The nice thing about this game is because it's a 100% arcade conversion, pretty cool. But the downside is the a.i. is incredibly difficult, thus making it impossible to win even for a match.
The keys become misplaced when I try to resize them.
We all have a common issue with the difficulty and it hasnt been fixed. I mean on a difficulty of 1 you cant get past stage for please fix it.
Designed for old phones, not working on my Samsung Note 9 couldn't select characters couldn't get past character screen, control shows 2011 sony playstation phone button layout.
Its kinda hard to get use to it but brings back memories from childhood. Its awesome to remember and at least play it on phone. No doubt one og the best games. Download enjoy and be happy. 👍
controls not always works as expected , sometimes particular moves work and sometimes it just do move which is not intended, very inconsistent , for a app which is Paid, this is not what i was expected, wasted my money
As a fan of the KOF series, i'm a bit biased. I see nothing wrong with this iteration, unless you're seeking a purist's experience.
I love this game..but its not working.and saying it will only work with older version of Android.. you should write it in description. And they didn't replied my email as well.. give refund or update it..
Gaming buttons are not visible
All good i purchased it for real character but didn't find orochi whyy bro whyy
Not working latest android version not supported... App needs to be updated as per new android version. Please refund as its not supported in latest androd version
Now you fixed problem about first unpack, It's very good!!!
The control button is really hard to use. Can't even make any special moves anymore even if I still remember them.
NEVER BUY THIS GAME! It such a making all of us fool its not working in my phone after buying they are saying its only working to older version of devices all i lost is my money on this game i don't wont to give them a 1star but i cant 💔
DO NOT BUY! READ FIRST!! I love KOF but this app version will leave you frustrated. Once you get past level 3 the game gets extremely hard to the point that you can't do any damage, you won't be able to land any hits and even if you block it'll still hit you. Every combo or special move will be interrupted. Changing the difficulty on the main page makes no difference. It's not worth it, trust me
