Leave a Review FINAL FANTASY TACTICS
Favorite
Best game ever made. I wish they would make another one. But not with lame characters like they did in tactics 2. Stick with the medieval fantasy visage. The story is amazing. It’s basically a satire calling out the Catholic Church for the evil organization that it is. I’ve played this game countless times and am about to start a new campaign with my daughter. This is a true gem. A diamond in the rough. Wish I could give it ten stars.Show lessNickhaugen
Irritating.
I loved playing this game when it originally came out. When I found it on the App Store I was excited to say the least. But the game freezes CONSTANTLY on my iPhone 8S Plus. It is the most irritating thing being in the middle of playing and the game freezes for no good reason whatsoever. I would love to actually be able to play through the game without having to save after every single battle, cutscene or visit to town just so I don’t lose my progress. Absolutely irritating. Needs an update to smooth out these bugs.Show lessWalter_1992
Crashes and Freezes
I have an iPhone 8 Plus with the most up to date iOS version. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the game, power cycled my phone, and still the game crashes and/or freezes intermittently. I experience this after I minimize the game to check other apps, or after I launch the game. It ALWAYS happens within seconds after the game opens, it will either freeze or the screen will turn black and after a few minutes the game crashes and when I launch it it restarts the game.Show lessGrafeit
Great but I found a bad bug and an annoying mechanic
The game crashes when I am playing in Finnath Creek. I can’t get past it because the crash occurs when a chocobo attacks or I land a killing blow on one.
It is also very annoying that the enemies always grow to match or surpass your level. You can never work hard to surpass them because they always end up at your level or higher. This makes simple encounters I should be able to overcome terribly challenging. Even at level 80, they still match me.Show lessFayer trmo
Age limit
There should really be an age limit on writing a review. Also an IQ test. It seems to me that if the application doesn’t go perfect the first time, and mostly due to user error, the rating is slumped down rather rapidly. This game here is a timeless classic and to bring it to be where ever is just simply amazing. Great job on the port. Much appreciation in your direction.Show lessHigh kicka
UPDATED iPhone X Periodic Crashes
UPDATED: Getting worse with more frequent freezing. Freezing now occurs at onset of battle character selection screen. If it gets any worse, it will borderline unplayable. Shouldn’t take oftentimes 5-10 minutes of loading, freezing, and rinse repeat +4x just to start playing! 3/5 stars
Not a review of the game itself (5 stars there); more so a review of the “software”. The game crashes/freezes when loading frequently. Sometimes it takes restarting the game 3-4x before it will finally get to a successful load.
Unclear how or why. There aren’t any noticeable patterns. I think for the several years I’ve used iOS, I can count on one hand the number of times a game had crashed or froze on my iPhones or iPods or iPads. This game crashes/freezes enough to warrant this review from me.
Controls are intuitive for touch screen. No other issues so far (12 hours in the game).Show lessSMichaelV86
Love the game but buggy
I love this game and have played it through multiple times on PS and iPhone. I now have an iPhone X and have been having difficulty with latest update. If I close my phone during a battle (no more quick save) I often lose any progress and have to start again from last save. Also the app sometimes freezes while loading a save game or between cut scenes. I love the game but these aspects are frustrating!Show lessTrynd
Poor port of a great game
Let me just say that Final Fantasy Tactics is one of my all-time favorite games. The additions to the War of the Lions edition serve to make it a fresh experience for someone who sank hundreds of hours in the PS1 day’s.
That said, the stability of the iOS version is a shame. Even on an iPhone 8 with the latest OS update the game freezes constantly sometimes losing significant progress in longer battles.
Booting up often locks on a black screen before the opening cinematic resulting in many force quits before even getting in the game.
A minor peeve is that the touch controls are a little frustrating in certain aspects. Selecting targets in a cluster can be a trial in patience.
Square-Enix charges a premium for their rereleases. A premium price should predicate a premium product. Unfortunately, due to the nostalgia factor, they often get a pass for issues that would sink most other games.Show lessJayzub
So long, $14
Crashed at first battle after intro. Now just black-screens and crashes when opened, even after iPhone reboot, closing the app down, etc. Description says “works on this iPhone”. Noticed another review saying iPhone 8 has issues with it as well as iOS 11. If you’re not going to update your $14 app, at least update the description to show that it doesn’t work on certain devices/iOS versions. Want a refund - gg App Store.
Fix this and I’ll be happy to update my review. But not if it takes 3.5 years like the last update apparently did.Show lessKrayzeeD
So far so good
Been debating whether or not to I should get this game for a while. Reading through the reviews people claimed that it would crash and freeze. I’ve played about 5 hours and haven’t experienced any freezing or crashes yet on my iPhone 7. Hopefully it stays this way. It’s an alright port. The game feels a little sped up to me, but it’s not too bad...Show lessnomshark
