  • Blah blah blah...

    Lots of pointless and silly chat. Runs on and on and on... Get to the point already. Not one of Kemco's better games. Maps are slapped together too. Going anywhere is an icon clicking session. Wasn't a lot of care involved in making this quick buck maker.
  • Fun, surprisingly complex classic RPG

    I grew up playing all the classic SNES games, and I have to say Fantasy Chronicle was a great blast from the past, which gave me a lot of challenging surprises (the post-game final boss was shockingly difficult and required me to spend several hours upgrading my equipment and leveling up).

    The localization is pretty spotty, but the characterization and graphic style were enough to be highly entertaining. This was a totally worthwhile purchase that I recommend for a fun 20+ hours of classic RPG fun.

    Oh, and the equipment upgrading system was deep and addictive. Did I mention that I thoroughly enjoyed this game?

  • The "Tool" command works

    You have to equip the items in order to use them in combat. In the "Tool" option in the menu, if you select the character you want to equip an item on it brings up another menu where an option to equip items is available. It took awhile to figure out since it wasn't clearly explained in the " Help" menu. Other than the confusing menu system, this a great RPG that should satisfy most fans of the genre looking for a solid turn based JRPG for iOS.

  • Great JRPG Title

    I enjoyed playing through Fantasy Chronicles, the story wasn't bad, had some decent characters and graphics, and although basic it held my attention for at least 20+ hours of play (including building a lot of the more challenging item builds). To really get the most out of the game you have to master the item assembly system, since for the post game simple grinding won't win you many battles, strategy, party selection, equipment on your guardian beasts, tactics and various item builds are what matter. What could have made the game really great is an equally long post game.. although I haven't beaten all of the post-end game final bosses, I assume once you beat them that's it. Instead a different reality with different monsters, a higher level cap and a hard difficulty, with added story here and there would give it a lot of replay value and pushed it to the 50+ hours of play.

    Most of the pre-end game is easy-normal level of difficulty for a standard RPG, but still enjoyable and about what you would expect. Your characters do still die, you run out of money/supplies to build items, not like some of the RPG's on the app store here where you can just auto-attack through the entire game and skip the dialogue. There are a few nice features, for example if you die to a boss, it allows you to retry the battle. You can also save anywhere in a dungeon. This is helpful for collecting the rare ingredients that certain bosses only drop a low % of the time. Finally the guardian beast combination, equipment, etc. adds another level of battle strategy to the game.

    Overall definitely worth the price to JRPG fans, and better than a lot of the more popular titles on the app store, and I look forward to more like this from Kotobuki Solutions!

  • Awesome

    It's one of THE best RPGs I've played on the iPod. I wish I could give it 5 stars but the tool option for the battle screen does not work. Please update to fix it please.
  • Well worth the price

    It's incredibly easy to get started and figure things out. I've just started and it's not like those other RPGs where it's extremely difficult without paying more money for items you find at the end of the game.

    Even from the beginning of the game I could already tell this game has heart.

    Battle system is great, and my only complaint is that I'd like an option to speed up the battles more so I can continue the story faster

  • Beautiful Game

    Enemy animations are extremely fluid, and the game poses an actual challenge! I love it!
  • Wish it was easy

    I'm at level 50 on all my characters and am still getting my butt kicked perhaps it's cuz I'm more of a story driven player than a hack and slash nice story line though stuck at church right now guess I better level up more :(
  • Nostalgic JRPG

    I'm a sucker for great RPG's and this is definitely one of the best ones on the iOS.

    It's a great twist on turn-based gameplay. The story seems pretty solid so far too.
