Retro Reader

Retro Reader is a guide reader built for classic gaming. Import your favorite text walkthroughs — GameFAQs-style ASCII guides for SNES, NES, Genesis, Game Boy, and beyond — and read them with pixel-perfect
monospace rendering that preserves every piece of ASCII art exactly as intended.

Read Your Way
Customize font size, choose between fixed, panning, or hidden line number gutters, and enjoy smooth 60 FPS scrolling even through guides with 100,000+ lines. Jump to any line instantly or search across the
entire guide with fuzzy matching.

Stay Organized
Double-tap any line to create bookmarks or pins. Add names and notes to mark boss strategies, puzzle solutions, or hidden item locations. Your reading position is saved automatically — pick up right where you
left off.

Build Your Collection
Import .txt guides and organize them by game, platform, and author. Export your entire library as a backup and import it on another device with all bookmarks and pins intact.

Offline & Private
Everything is stored locally on your device. No accounts, no cloud, no tracking. Just your guides, available anytime — perfect for long gaming sessions away from WiFi.

Authentic Retro Aesthetic
Neon green text on a black background. Monospace fonts. A terminal-inspired interface that feels right at home next to your SNES.
