Much disappoint.
The iOS version of ff9 meant I could finally see how this game ended. I wish Id left myself to wonder. You know that, "aaaaaand its gone!" meme? Thats how the second half of this story plays out. Its atrocious. But you probably already knew that.
The new touch control scheme was a good idea. On paper. At best. Scrolling through menus feels clunky. Sometimes you have to double tap to select things, sometimes not. Maybe its easier on a tablet, but it took a considerable amount of effort and focus just to get to the same level of competency on an iPhone 6 as I used to be at on psx, playing half-mindedly. The option to enable a transparent D-pad and buttons would have been great, but **** you instead.
The updated character models look really good. +1 star
The cheats are great and circumvent the handicap of using the touch controls to allow you to be disappointed by the story even faster.
If you rely on the auto save feature, which is otherwise a god send, you get locked out of your save file upon completing the game because it saves at the beginning of the end cinematic. However, you do get to play blackjack upon completing the game, but it crashes every dozen or so hands.
Dollars to disappointment, this is the worst iOS game Ive ever played.
