### 4/5 — It’s def fun

*2024-11-01*

I like the game a lot the only issue is that it needs more details as to what the rules are and how power ups affect the cards and how you play

### 5/5 — Thank you for this 🙏🏼

*2024-09-25*

Looks like the game’s been out for a while now. Just now discovering it and it satisfies all my Tetra Master needs. Many thanks :)

### 5/5 — FF9

*2023-10-07*

Almost just like the tetra mast game on FF9

### 5/5 — Awesome game!

*2023-07-15*

I’m so glad I found this game! It’s one of the best solo card games I’ve ever played.  (You can play with others but I prefer solo.) 

It’s super easy to learn, very intuitive and smooth UI. The games are quick, because you only play a handful of cards, so it’s perfect when you’re on a work break. 

It’s perfect for casual as well as strategic players. It’s simple enough for a casual player but there’s actually a good amount of strategic depth, without being overly complex. It’s the perfect balance. 

The design is also top-notch, the file size is small, and it’s good on battery. And there are no ads. The IAP is purely optional. But I bought it for the very fair price simply to support the developer. We need more good developers like this on the App Store. Also, there’s no data collection. 

Developer, you did everything right here. Thank you for making such a great game and for monetizing it fairly. I hope it’s successful! It’s a really fun game to play, and I find myself playing a lot because it plays so quickly. Great job in every way!

### 4/5 — Amazing underrated card game reminiscent of FF9’s Tetra master!

*2021-07-16, version 1.0.5*

This is an exceptionally well-made, free to play card game that borrows heavily from the mechanics of Final Fantasy 9’s Tetra Master. However, gone is the overly complex RNG in Tetra and instead is a more refined and simplistic system that revolves around card power being distributed to cardinal and ordinal  arrows on the card with an easy to understand color and tiered format that displays the strength of a card’s arrows.

It took me about 5 minutes to get the hang of the game wherein I was able to dig into the game’s plentiful single player card battle scenarios that give you gold you can use to buy new cards or gems. You can socket gems onto cards with gem slots to add additional bonus affect to your cards such as giving a card arrows in all directions or gems to lessen the affects of negative field grids.

Game mechanics aside, the artwork is beautiful, battles are quick and intuitive, and this app positively builds  upon a FF9’s misunderstood classic card game of Tetra Master. 

This review would be a 5/5 but the rules aren’t entirely fleshed out completely as I have no idea how card battles are decided if two cards with the same power arrows attack each other (50/50 maybe)? I also wish there was an option to mute the game’s music. It gets old and repetitive after a while.

### 5/5 — Kinda like FF9 cars game.

*2021-05-25, version 1.0.4*

Still slaps through.
