Pros & Cons

  • Physics-based parry and push mechanics for skill-based combat
  • Power absorption to grow stronger over time
  • Three game modes and 100-level Quest with bosses
  • Offline play with gamepad support and customizable controls
  • Marketing copy could broaden appeal by emphasizing RPG/adventure/world-building themes found in competitors
  • Limited explicit emphasis on online multiplayer beyond GameCentre-like features in the data

Comments on Only One for Android

★★★★☆ A Google user · Sep 28, 2026
Just great fun Fantastic action, very challenging. True old school pixel graphics that look great. Action is smooth, way more fun than it looks like it could possibly be. Great sound & variety of foes. Gave 4 stars because you need something called 'ultimate power' to use the powers available later, other reviews seem to imply you need to pay for that now. This game is absolutely worth a couple of bucks, would love to see this character come down off of his pedestal of epic doom to star in a rpg of som
★★★★☆ swaroop kumar · Aug 30, 2026
I play this game since 6th standard the best pixel game I have ever played
★★★★★ adrian bermudez · Sep 23, 2026
Such a classic game. it's the one that I get addicted to for a while then come back to it later after a while and im so exited that I learned that its on steam now
★☆☆☆☆ Troy Nemeth · Aug 14, 2026
I swear they used to not lock content to purchases. This app went downhill so much since it first came out. Let me earn content by playing ffs. Also, I don't care about the stupid might and last stand icons. All they effing do is get in the way of the non-fixed joystick on mobile
★☆☆☆☆ Nighton87 · Sep 18, 2026
Game is ok I played it on previous phone but for some reason even tho it launches I can't play it on new one because it won't allow me telling that it doesn't recognize my phone, why did you add that?
★☆☆☆☆ Cody Wallace · Sep 22, 2026
The game scales so ridiculously in difficulty, that its almost required to pay money for advancement.
