Try as I did, I just couldn't get into the mobile iteration of Neverwinter Nights. The music worked when it was used, and was definitely better than many RPGs I've played in my day. I'm annoyed by the seemingly passable paths that turn out to be too narrow for your character to waddle through, though.
There's some detail, but you really have to squint to see what's going on. Graphically, Neverwinter reminds me of the Ultima games on the NES. Their picture and life bar shows up on the HUD, giving you a quick view of what the tiny sprite is that you're trying to kill. Combat is done smartly, with ranged attacks launching automatically and melee fracases executed simply by running into the assorted fiends. It streams in with relative smoothness, though this also means you must be able to get a signal to play. Enough complaining, though - for now, anyway. Thus, you're forced to play the game two-handed, which is something I would think mobile game developers would avoid whenever possible. While 5 works for all other functions like calling up the pause menu - where inventory, enemy targeting, and attack types are chosen - it's unable to simply engage in conversation. To talk to people or pick up items in the world, you need to use the "okay" button. However, the diagonal movements aren't so forgiving, negating their timesaving potential. The up, down, and sideways directions - either with your handset's direction pad or the keys - give you some leeway on collision fields. Your character lumbers like he's wearing cement shoes. Just moving around is a pretty big pain in its own right.
