Zeus Quest is one of the best old school pure adventure games in iPhone! Also a huge and funny Greek Mythology point and click adventure game with 2D cartoon graphics. The humor reminds us the classic adventures games back in the 90s. The game is fully translated into several languages: English German Greek Italian French Spanish.
Other CrazySoft adventure games you might know: The Odyssey, The Final Battle)

The plot is crazy! You are Zeus the boss of Olympus which comes back to earth to save the planet. Everything is happening at the classical ancient Greek period (1000-300bc) but you have the chance of switching ages though a time machine... Visit many Aegean islands including: Santorini, Delos, Mykonos, Milos, Karpathos and Crete. Solve many riddles, play some mini games, interact with ancient Greek mythology characters with hilarious dialogues and at the end... save the planet!

Zeus is initially lost in Santorini, summoned back to Earth by a mechanism made by Hephaestus, his trusted ally. Zeus, unlike the other Greek Gods: Ares and Hades is not a god of war, he is a hilarious / goofy character trying to accomplish his mission. He will have to save the planet and humankind from explosion and be an immortal hero with glory like the heroes Perseus, Theseus, Dionysus and Prometheus. This task might be difficult but its also hilarious. Zeus will meet his muse, Europe abduct her transformed into a bull!

FEATURES:
• Play over 50 different places on the Greek islands.
• Interact with many funny characters from the Greek Mythology.
• Mini games.
• Easter eggs.
• Translated into 6 languages.
• Brilliant 2D cartoon graphics

* Softonic.com review: "Zeus Quest is one of the most fun mobile adventure games weve seen in a while, and has all the makings of a Greek legend..."
* Nominee: Best Adventure Game of Handango 2009

USER INTERFACE:
The point and click interface is as easy as that: You point and click somewhere on the game and you have two options: Examine (Click the eye) or Operate (Click the hand). Examine looks at the spot you clicked and Operate tries to do something with this spot. Sometimes there are multiple choices that you can do or say. E.g.: Take the bottle and Leave the bottle there.In this case you will see this choice box before the text.Just click the choice you wish once to select it and once more to activate it. Its as simple as that!

The game is really open. You can go almost wherever you want. If you want to get out of a place and visit another one just click on this icon. It means that there is an exit. The character icon shows where you are standing on the place. You can climb ladders, sit on chairs etc. You can Use Items from the inventory to that icon as if you want to Operate something on you. E.g.: If you have a trousers in the inventory and you want to wear it. You must click the trousers and then this icon.

Pros and cons of Zeus Quest - Adventure app for iPhone and iPad

Zeus Quest - Adventure app good for

Great game but I like this style games but after u give the dude the pyramid if u ask him the first question. You get stuck in a continual loop make sure to save before talking to him
Typical point and click, but very difficult in some places (non-sensical inventory combinations). Overall, very good with good ending. 5-6 hours playing time. Lots of spelling and grammatical errors and words lost in translation.
Super obscure puzzles but there always is a solution. I like this game because Im a fan of the old school kings quest type games and theres really no other games like this on iPhone currently. Im hoping more games come out like this that are higher quality. To the previous reviewer, Give the stones to the guy in the beach then tap dance in the wind.
When I first installed this, I couldnt get it to launch, but after getting help from the developer CrazySoft, I found out my iPhone OS was corrupted and after restoring, my issues were fixed. Now onto the game, it is a very solid point and click, very fun, but a little frustrating. I wish there was some sort of help system. After getting stuck for a few days, I was able to find a message board with a small walkthrough. I also wished that this game had some sort of in-game music, and a little more to its simple sfx. All in all it is a very solid and enjoyable game if you like point and click adventures, especially for $2. I would have given it 5 stars if it included what I mentioned.

Some bad moments

One picture screen, can not exit to other places........do not bu
Seriously. I havent gotten out of the first area of the game foe the mere fact that I dont even really get what to do. Nothing tells you, they just throw you in there to click on things and try to figure it out for yourself.
How do you get anywhere after you see the old man in the vineyard, and the priest in at the temple? I have tried every combination and nothing works. I assume that you need to get the donkey from the old man as transportation to the next cities, but how do you get it?
I was a HUGE fan of kings quest, and Ive been dying to find a similar game for iPod touch. This game was just disappointing. The puzzles and challenges were illogical, and overall I found it extremely unsatisfying. The premise is alright, but it was just too impossible to be fun. I finally beat the game but not without help from the message boards. Crazysoft should take the advice from these reviews and try again from scratch.

I know I need the mayor to open the road but he wont stop talking I know I need to give a drink to the fisherman but I cant find one thats not rotten I know I need to help the sailor cut his sails to go against the wind, but I dont have something to cut with I know I need to dig my weapon up from the mosaic, but it isnt nighttime so the lazy worker wont let me I know through random clicking that I can get a flower from the port if I wilt it with the drink first, and then I can paint the flower but I dont know why I would need to do this, is hasnt been a clue yet. Any help on the above issues would be greatly appreciated, then I can continue to work on the walkthrough.
I love it but theres a bug. I cant talk to the captain about thirasia and so I cant get there. Would be awesome if I could finish it!
