| AYN Thor Pro || Android 13 || 2026-07-02 || incompatible
|-
| OPPO Find X3 Lite || COLOROS 13.1 || 2026-06-29 || Not Compatible - Can't download and install the game, already sent mail to support
|-
|-
| Ayn Thor Max || Android 13 || 2026-10-13 || Not Compatible - Can't Install.
|-
| Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra || Android 16.0 || 2026-06-25 || Great experience
|-
| Samsung Tab A8 || Android 14.0 || 2026-07-20 || can't install
|-
| Samsung Galaxy S24 || Android 14.0 || 2026-05-19 || Smooth, but phone gets hot.
|-
| Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra|| Android 16.0 || 2026-06-28 || Performance is not smooth: FPS stays between 20 and 35 in both cities and instanced areas. UPDATE: reinstalling the game seems to fix the frame-rate issue, so it now runs smoothly. However, the phone still heats up, which is consistent with other reviews. Also, the sound and profession icons still appear to have some minor bugs.
|-
| Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra || Android 16.0 || 2026-06-25 || Runs great, gets a little warm but nothing dangerous.
|-
| Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 || Android 16.0 || 2026-06-26 || Game runs, but screen scales very badly and multiple GUI elements are displayed off-screen, making it impossible to use.
|-
| Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5|| Android 16.0 || 2026-06-29 || Game runs great unflipped! Some UI elements are cramped but not an issue to play. Cover screen play is terrible, as expected.
|-
| iPhone 18 Pro Max || iOS 27.0.1 || 2026-10-05 || Virtually unplayable (Prophecies, Ascalon City) even at lowest settings & capped to 30 fps; laggy at best, often choppy or even a slideslow. Was initially very hot. Doesn't make sense given hardware + other iPhones reporting otherwise. Hopefully alone in this.
|-
| iPhone 17 Pro Max || iOS 26.5 || 2026-05-19 || Great!
|-
| iPhone 16 Pro Max || iOS 26.5 || 2026-05-19 || Great experience
|-
| iPhone 15 || iOS 26.5 || 2026-05-19 || sometimes laggy, phone gets hot. playable at all.

|-
| iPad Pro 11" 2025 (M5) || iPadOS 27.0.1 || 2026-10-05 || Somewhat choppy even on lowest settings & capped to 30 fps. Not smooth like Steam Deck or PC. Befuddling given the hardware specs. Maybe an OS issue given other devices work well.
|-
| iPad Mini 6th Gen || iPadOS 26.5 || 2026-06-24 || Great experience. Gets warm.
|-
| Google Pixel 6a || Android 16 || 2026-06-25 || Playable but very low framerate
|-
| Google Pixel 6 || Android 17 || 2026-07-25 || Good experience. Runs mostly at 60 with a few drops. Capping at 30 FPS is better for less heat and more stable performance.

Low framerate in places with a long vision. Apparently no big effect of detail level. Doesn't really get hot. Seems like GPU can handle it quite well but memory doesn't keep up.
