The Quest Classic - Islands of Ice and Fire is an expansion to The Quest Classic, a beautifully hand-drawn, engaging and sinister world full of mystery, magic and provocative challenges. After enabling the expansion, you can continue to play The Quest Classic with your existing character(s) to explore new areas and quests. However, if you dont have The Quest Classic, you can also play the expansion as a standalone game.

In the game you are a Kingdom Agent on special assignment to discover the source of a mysterious illness that has devastated one island (icy Thule) and threatens another (fiery Eldfell). Youll need all your wits and gaming talents as you travel through these deceptively picturesque worlds to overcome new challenges, for good or evil.

In the expansion you will find:
- Over 30 hours of additional gameplay
- New monsters with graphics/abilities/properties
- New weapon type: crossbow and its ammo, crossbow bolt
- New, superiorly enchantable armors and weapons
- A brand new spell with its own effect
- A lethal disease - keep yourself away from that one!
- Many new quests, NPCs and high level shops
- New books to learn skills from

To access the new areas (not applicable if you are playing the expansion standalone), go to Mithria harbor and talk to captain Hanty, then select "The Quest Isle" as your travel destination. It is recommended to reach at least level 14 before trying to take on the challenges the isles pose.

Pros and cons of The Quest Classic - Islands of Ice and Fire app for iPhone and iPad

The Quest Classic - Islands of Ice and Fire app good for

This one of the best iPod games ever invented but I cant find the Harvey sailor guy to get to the fire and ice island thing:P
I really didnt think Quest could get any better, but this expansion proved me wrong. If youve finished the main game and are reduced to wandering looking for side-quests like I was, this will make your day. And not only that, I personally think this area is BETTER than Freymore. Its tuned to higher levels and has better equipment than could even be dreamed of in the origional game. Also, side quests are EVERYWHERE here, Ive picked up a dozen so far on the first town alone! If you like Quest, this is an absolute must. Between the huge amounts od new content and the ability to keep going with the same character (stats inventory and all) this is a HUGE steal at only $4. If I could Id give it six stars out of five. Its just that amazing. Buy it. You wont regret it.
This is one of my favorite games. I bought the original and the expansion for windows a few days ago, mostley for the expansion, and then 4 days later this came out. But I still dont regret it. BEST GAME EVER.
Youve done it again! I enjoyed The Quest so much that I rushed out and bought Ice and Fire as soon as I heard it was out. Im enjoying it every bit as much as I hoped I would. For anyone wondering, its *very* easy to continue your Quest character in this expansion. Simply start up the expansion app, and on the first screen is a choice to enable it in the base game. If your base game is still installed, then choose that and it will do all the work for you. Just restart the base game when it asks and youre ready to go.
The Quest and the expansion both will have you making time to play. I am very picky and critical when it comes to my gaming, and I am very cheap, so I shopped for a good long while before intitally purchasing The Quest. A couple of weeks later, I was anticiapting the release of the expansion, and wouldve bought it at three times the price. Id never played The Quest, or any of its expansions, previously, but now I am a huge fan. Redshift/Chillingo, please give us more expansions for the iphone. That said, I found the controls to be a little quirky at first, but once I locked the screen rotation and went exclusively to the d-pad it became a non-issue. The sheer volume of gameplay and depth of sidequests is impressive, but I found the end of Ice and Fire to be a little monotonous. A simple back door on the Abbey wouldve improved this greatly. Like I said, give us more - Sten can only rest on his laurels for so long.
This game is great but they made only 1 new spell and only 1 weapons shop that I know of ( the one in Thule isnt working now so it doesnt count). The first Quest had lots of spells and around 4 weapons shops. If I could give some suggestions for spells I would say add a repair spell because in the first one I was stuck on the last island fighting orcs and dragons with near broken armor and weapons. And make some ice attack spells and a fire spell that doesnt have blast radius therefore cost less mana. Also add lava boots so if you step in lava you wont be burned and ice boots doing the same thing except with ice. Also add a spell maker were you can make your own spells (obviously) but it will be very expensive. Also add an arena you can go to as many times as you want and have it have creatures your own strenghth or harder. I think its great everyones leaving good reveiws because its an awesome game but give suggestions instead of just bug fixes. 

Some bad moments

How do you play? I dont get it. As soon as you leave the village, you get attacked and die. And you only get one life?? Please help. I wasted 4 bucks.
Y cant I continue my game I try to cross the rope and it cuts away to this screen even though I have this app
I was excited to get this game after reading the reviews but I was hugely dissapointed. I found the gameplay terrible and repetitive. I dont know what the appeal is here. I wish I could get my money back.
I got this game because of the reviews but it was fun up until the part were I had to kill the frost dragon he killed me over and over and I used all my potions up. I bought like the best stuff in the stores but all theese enemies are way 2 hard at least update to were resting is free and u dont have to eat ur food when u get up until then 2 stars
