Reception

[edit]

The iOS version received "average" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[1] Digital Spy said, "Archangel is slow to get started, but after gaining some abilities and spells the pace of combat picks up for a satisfying and long-lasting dungeon crawler."[6] MacLife said, "While lacking the depth and visual diversity of its desktop counterparts, Archangel is a fun touch screen take on the action RPG."[3] Pocket Gamer called it "a well-crafted dungeon-crawler with a handful of nice touches, but it could use a little more spark and imagination in its world design and core gameplay."[4] However, The Digital Fix said of the iPad version, "Archangel takes several innovative steps towards making the dungeon-crawler viable for phones and tablets, including cloud saving for play on multiple devices, but ultimately it's just a pale, pale shadow of what the likes of Diablo 3, Torchlight 2 and even the free-to-play Path of Exile are capable of doing on the PC."[5] Gamezebo gave it a negative review, saying, "There's just too much silliness to suffer through to dig into the parts of Archangel that are good. This is one of a wave of titles showing how pretty mobile games can look on up-to-date hardware, but the beauty is definitely only skin deep. Gameplay matters, even on phones and tablets."[2]
