### 4/5 — I cant seem to play online???

*2022-03-14, version 2.1.4*

Why cant i find anybody to play against online, ever????

### 3/5 — Triple Triad is broken

*2021-11-12*

So, Triple Triad won't lod properly after you press start. It just gets stuck on the brown background screen. I don't suppose a fix is in order?

### 1/5 — No

*2021-09-29*

Trying to play TT but it’s crashing all the time .it happened to me before on my iPhone 7,it kept crashing and I couldn’t log in to my account

### 1/5 — Don’t bother unless you are a die hard

*2021-08-05, version 2.1.3*

This app crashes anytime you attempt to play Triad or Ff1/2.  Isn’t worth the time to download.

### 1/5 — Too much junk, looks like a website from 1998

*2021-05-31, version 2.1.3*

Please, separate ALL the games living within app. At the very least, free Triple Triad from its grasp, or link it to the FFXIV companion and your in-game cards.

For what it’s worth, if your app has to have a “how to use this app” banner. You’ve done something wrong.

### 4/5 — Why is it so much money?!?!

*2021-05-15*

I only play this for Triple Triad. The app crashes sometimes when trying to start up the game. It has improved since my original review.
I still don’t like the stamina Crystal system. I think crystals should only be lost if the game ends in a draw or a loss. Buying stamina crystals is ridiculous. It’s basically $1 = 1 Crystal, and 1 game is 1 Crystal. It’s basically $1 for 2 minutes at best.

UPDATE: For some reason, they upped the difficulty on playing against CPU. I’m winning only 2-3 times per 5 games. Playing on easy feels like playing against normal difficulty. It’s less enjoyable.
And why does Triple Triad keep crashing?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

### 1/5 — App crashes constantly

*2021-04-18*

Every time I open triple triad. You basically have to delete the app, reinstall it, then play. Every time.

### 2/5 — broken

*2020-10-16, version 2.1.3*

triple triad doesn’t even work just closes when u click it

### 1/5 — WHY IS THIS APP NAME IN CAPITAL LETTERS?

*2020-09-29*

Also why does it seem to have the coding sophistication of what I did as a primary schooler in the 80s?

### 1/5 — Can’t login anyways

*2020-06-10, version 2.1.2*

What are the main things I have with my main square ENix account is that I can’t login using my email address and password anymore. The only way I can actually login to my account and thank God that I did this was that I linked it to my Steam account which now makes that the only way I can get in to my square Enix account. I can’t log on to this app because they don’t have that feature implemented it in this.

### 1/5 — Freaking terrible

*2020-05-20, version 2.1.2*

Tells you to create this for additional points and rewards in games.  Create an account, then one place tells you it’s called an ID and another it’s called a username.  Utilize every type and it still says everything is wrong and won’t let you log onto the app site.  This is the worst thing I have ever seen.

### 1/5 — Can’t sign up

*2020-05-02, version 2.1.2*

Horrible app

### 1/5 — Another broken product

*2020-01-27, version 2.1.2*

Does not let you join or sign up, slow app very slow and again another broken product from a developer that was good 20 years ago.

### 1/5 — Perte des données

*2020-01-03*

J’ai trop la haine, j’avais téléchargé et commencé à jouer à triple triad sans créer de compte et remporté énormément de cartes, puis depuis quelques temps le jeu ne voulait plus se charger, j’ai donc fait « redownload datas » a faire lorsque le jeu ne fonctionne pas correctement et la j’ai perdu tout mon avancement et toutes mes cartes !!!! Je pensais que les donnée de cartes étaient mises sur le serveur avec mon identifiant d’appli et le Game Center et rien du tout, et aucun avertissement de perte de données n’est affiché ni même de lien pour créer un compte avant de retélécharger les données.... bref j’ai sacrément les boules 🤬

### 1/5 — Fail

*2019-10-18, version 2.1.0*

Why are they asking me to Purchase Final Fantasy? It was a Free Game when I first Downloaded it & now I’m unable to play it ever again!

### 1/5 — Triple triad is awesome but

*2019-10-09, version 2.0.9*

### 1/5 — On Hold

*2026-02-18*

What reasonis there tousethis app when the key element of it keeps being on hold.

### 1/5 — Killed triple triad.

*2026-01-14*

Without triple triad this already lousy app is now worthless

### 1/5 — No Triple Triad

*2025-10-19*

They removed triple triad being it back

### 1/5 — Bye bye Triple Triad

*2025-01-19*

Nachdem nun der Service Güter Triple Triad eingestellt wurde, ist diese App nur noch nutzlos. Bitte bringt Triple Triad als Standalone Game in den App Store zurück. 🥺

### 1/5 — Game over

*2024-12-15*

Please make triple triad offline you have broken my heart into tiny little pieces 💔

### 1/5 — Make Triple Triad standalone and ditch this

*2024-10-06*

Please kill this awful and useless app, make the only thing worth playing on it, Triple Triad, a standalone app, and remove the aggressive monetization scheme and provide an upfront cost. This a great game that has been destroyed by tons of awful decisions.

EDIT - Oh never mind they are killing off Triple Triad and keeping portal. Deleted this garbage.

### 1/5 — WONT LOG ME IN FOR FF7 EVER CRISIS BONUSES

*2024-03-03, version 2.1.7*

I HAVE AN ACCOUNT AND IT WONT LOG ME IN TO CLAIM MY POINTS WHAT THE HECK!!! 😤

### 1/5 — Recurso removido

*2023-07-02*

Eu tinha FF 1 e 2 mas agora não dá mais para jogar.

### 1/5 — Can’t Even Make an Account

*2022-07-11*

I wanted to play Triple Triad.  After downloading this burdensome cluttered app for one simple game I was directed that I needed to make an account and that it could only be made on the “official website.”  What website?  That would be nice info for them to include!  There’s no direct link and it doesn’t tell you anywhere what the website is.  

I made an account in the Square Enix website, but apparently that isn’t what they were looking for.  I tried to go to the Final Fantasy portal website but couldn’t even find a place to try and make an account.  Then I gave up, it isn’t worth it.

Fix this app!  Or better yet make a dedicated Triple Triad app, that’s the only reason anyone bothers to download this thing.  Most apps don’t force you to make an account and if they do you can make it in the app or at least get to the website through the app.  These are hilariously simple design flaws that should have been fixed before this app was even released.

### 1/5 — Triple Triad crashes the app

*2021-10-04*

As the title says. App dies when Triple Triad doesn’t work.

### 5/5 — Final Fantasy

*2025-05-12*

Очень удобное приложение для того чтобы следить за любимой серией видеоигр Final Fantasy ^_^

### 5/5 — Ohne Werbung :)

*2022-05-02*

Ein Spiel ohne Werbung, warum kriegen das die anderen nicht auch hin. Sehr gute App. Bitte weiter so.  Danke

### 5/5 — Why such a low rating?? This is a great app

*2021-04-20*

I only use this for Triple Triad, but just recently I downloaded FFVIII Remastered! If it weren't for this Portal App I would’ve never known about the release of FFVIII Remastered for mobile! Honestly, I’ve never had any problems with this app. I get all my final fantasy updates from here and play triple triad with my friends via Bluetooth... again read my title, I’m not exactly sure why this app has a low rating. I guess some of the fan base gets triggered when something small is outta place.

### 5/5 — Love triple triad

*2020-06-21*

Not sure why it’s got so many bad reviews, it runs perfectly fine on my phone. I love triple triad! There’s 700+ cards from almost all the FF,  and although it’s stamina based, you can play a match every 15 minutes and it stacks up to 5 times. You can play against others or AI. I like because it’s fun but also not time consuming, and it doesn’t take time away from playing real video games :)

### 5/5 — News, polls, cards and more!

*2019-08-21*

A fantastic application which allows you to keep up to date with all things Final Fantasy from numbered flagship titles to available merch and even mobile games! Triple Triad is fantastic, and the weekly polls keep me coming back time and again.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2018-03-31, version 2.0.8*

Really fun app and I love playing Triple Triad on here, for my Final Fantasy daily needs!

### 5/5 — Sehr cool!!

*2017-02-12*

Besonders als Final Fantasy fan eine richtig coole App!!
Ein Wunsch geht in Erfüllung, endlich Triple Triad spielen zu können, jedoch würde ich mir echt wünschen das die Square Enix Produkte endlich mal in deutscher Sprache raus kommen...

### 5/5 — Very cool! Triple triad

*2017-01-20*

This app is very neat! It will give you free things in the other Final Fantasy f2p games. ALSO. Has the famous triple triad game. A lot of people complain that you get 5 plays and each play recharges every 15 minutes. I think it is a great free 2 play system. Keeps me from burning through the game and allows me to enjoy each battle. Very awesome app with an awesome game! Ignore all these complainers, as I have other games I play while I wait for my crystas to recharge.  Basically 5 plays an hour. I will be cooking or cleaning or watching tv while it recharges. Not bad and I get to collect cards! Also has single player and multiplayer, without bugs or glitches yet! And it's official!! I love Final Fantasy! ✌️

### 5/5 — Le jeux de carte déchire

*2017-01-03*

Mais ne marche plus depuis hier merci de voir si ça vient de l appli

### 5/5 — Great FF app!!

*2016-08-06, version 2.0.1*

Great app, triad is a lot of fun, haven't had the login issues others reported.
