Old walkthroughs were not made for phone screens.
Classic TXT guides are huge, fixed-width, and packed with hand-made formatting. Generic readers make you pinch, pan, search blindly, and lose your place.

Questions before you import.
What file types can I import?
Plain-text .txt walkthroughs, FAQs, and guides — the kind shared
for classic games. You can import a single file, several files at once, or
preview a whole folder. Unsupported archives and unusually large files are skipped.
How does batch folder import match guides to games?
Matching uses folder names and filenames, so clean names and platform folders help. Before anything is imported, you'll see what matched, what needs review, and any duplicates. You can add platform-folder hints and rescan.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Saved and imported guides, your library, search, and your reading progress all work offline. Finding guides online, cover art, and purchases use the network when needed.
What does the free limit actually mean?
The free tier keeps up to 3 games in your library. Each of those games can hold as many guides as you like. The one-time unlock removes the game limit so you can build a larger collection and use batch import freely.
Can I save guides I find online?
You can open supported online guide pages from within the app and save a clean text snapshot for offline reading, with its source kept attached. It is a focused, you-directed save flow for supported guide pages.
Is my data private?
There's no account, no ads, and no tracking. Your library, progress, favorites, and custom sections stay on your device. Purchases are handled through the App Store. Read the full Privacy Policy.
Is this affiliated with any guide website?
No. Retro Game Guides is not affiliated with GameFAQs, GameSpot, Fandom, or any guide-hosting website. Online guide pages load only when you choose to open them, and saved guides are stored locally with attribution to their source.
