Import

Bring ZIP, APK, 7z and RAR archives, or a whole folder, from the Files app. You can also open a download from Safari, AirDrop or the share sheet by choosing Ren'Go.

Play

Ren'Py 7 and Ren'Py 8 games both run, and Ren'Go detects which one a game needs. Tap to read, swipe back to roll back, use the overlay strip, and use a virtual cursor for games that need a mouse.

Saves

See every slot with its thumbnail. Back up, restore, export and import saves as a zip. Saves stay when you update a game, and you can delete a game and keep its saves.

Translation

Choose from the languages a game ships with, or translate on your device through Apple's Translation framework, right inside the dialogue box.

Private

No accounts, no ads, no timers and no game limits. Your games and saves stay on your device. Nothing leaves it unless you opt in to compatibility reports.

What Ren'Go is not

Section titled “What Ren'Go is not”

Ren'Go is a player, not a store. Ren'Go does not include or download games; you import the ones you own. It includes no games of its own except a short sample game, The Question, so you can see how it works. Ren'Go never links to sites that offer games. Use it only with games you have the right to play.

Ren'Go is not affiliated with the Ren'Py project.
