Square Enix support directed me to Apple Support who directed me back to Square Enix. Clearly a bug in the game that needs to be fixed by the developer. ### 4/5 — Almost A Definitive Edition *2024-05-13, version 1.1.0* Sadly the Pixel Remaster doesn’t have the GBA bonus dungeons and 4 jobs (yet). Without that additional content I sadly can’t call the Pixel Remaster a definitive edition. Though there is hope it will be added. ### 3/5 — Okay sequel *2024-03-29, version 1.1.0* This is my first time playing FF5 through, and I like that it improves upon the job feature from FF3, allowing for blended classes to some extent. I’m not liking the continuous trend of using mountains to make games last longer. It’s really annoying, and that is one of the worse features that is carried over from FF3. There are several bosses in this game who don’t give you any exp or Gil when you beat them, so that’s irritating. Remember to write instructions down, because npcs might not repeat them later. my Gil also seems to mysteriously disappear in this game. After playing a few of these games, I see why so many people complain about the controls. I like the touch option, but it’s annoying when I need to pass through secret doors. The other controls don’t allow for precision like controllers did on consoles. ### 3/5 — Okay sequel *2024-03-25* This is my first time playing FF5 through, and I like that it improves upon the job feature from FF3, allowing for blended classes to some extent.

On another note, I know it’s hard to follow a game as epic as FF4, but this game just isn’t as exciting. ### 4/5 — Near perfect - needs Enuo super boss *2024-03-08, version 1.1.0* With the recent update the game is now near perfect! I think if FFV and the other pixel remasters would have their respective super bosses then the games would be absolutely sublime! ### 5/5 — Fantastic Overall with one Issue *2024-02-09, version 1.1.0* I earned 38/39 achievements and it didn't give me the Master of V achievement for some reason. Did everything I could think of to see if it would trigger but never did. Still a great game from a great franchise! ### 5/5 — Not on par with other versions *2023-11-30, version 1.0.8* I LOVE the original Final Fantasy games so you can only imagine how happy I was to learn about these new versions. In good faith I bought the whole FF Pixel Remaster bundle. I was immediately upset to see there was no controller support. When I went online to see if an update was pending, I was dismayed to find out that not only has there NOT been an update in ages, but the PS4 and Switch versions have alternate music tracks, no encounter mode, and an EXP boost mode! As a family man with a rather busy schedule, those last two features would have been extremely welcome. I’m unfortunately going to issue request for a refund. Hopefully someday Square will find it in there hearts to make all versions have the same feature set. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Choppy scrolling *2026-01-06, version 1.2.2* An issue across all of these remasters. The choppy scrolling hurts my eyes and renders these version unplayable for me. It’s unfortunate, as these have the potential to be the best versions of these games ### 1/5 — Unable to download, unable to get support. *2025-02-20, version 1.1.0* This game won’t download, I’ve confirmed that my software is supported and I’ve restarted my iPad and tried everything to troubleshoot loading the game. I’ve tried to find support but the website is just adds…At 15$ this is garbage square Enix. ### 1/5 — Missing controller support *2024-10-06, version 1.1.0* Missing controller support ### 1/5 — 注意：追加ダンジョン・追加ジョブなし *2024-06-16* 販売終了したGBA版準拠のRPGFINAL FANTASY V (旧Ver.)と全く別物で、追加ダンジョンも追加ジョブもありません。 ……ネットでいかにどの部分に問題があるのかは、一覧になったものもありますが、いずれにしても制作側の思い入れの強さを問いたくなる内容でした。 本当に残念です。 ### 1/5 — Crashes *2024-06-15, version 1.1.0* Do not spend $18 on this it crashes often. ### 1/5 — バグが多すぎる *2024-04-19* シナリオ上、飛竜に乗るタイミング、チョコボに乗るタイミングで現れないバグがクリアまでに2度起きた たまたま直前のセーブを残してたから再開してスタート出来たけど、その事象が起きた後に上書きセーブしたらアウト。もうクリアできない セーブは20個作れるので、これからプレイされる方は複数セーブを残しつつプレーした方がいいです 間違ってもオートセーブだけで進めちゃいけない。バグで詰みます ### 1/5 — Too easy, cut content *2024-02-01, version 1.1.0* Super easy version with zero challenge. All added content over 30 years has been removed. Of course this is just a scam so square enix can release the “ultimate edition” in a few years with the extra jobs, bonus dungeon, and hopefully a harder difficulty than SUPER EASY. ### 1/5 — Controller support *2023-08-10, version 1.0.8* Please add controller support. Final fantasy 4 has it, I figured this one would too. ### 1/5 — Excellent game but… where is the controller support?! *2023-08-02, version 1.0.8* Why do none of these have controller support? Unacceptable to charge this amount for 30 year old games and not provide controller support. Fix it! ### 1/5 — 사운드가 안나오는 문제가 있는 것 같음 *2023-04-25* 정확한 상황은 모르겠는데 방해금지 켜진 상황에서 중단하고 재시작하면 사운드가 안나옴. 삭제 후 재설치해도 안나옵니다 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Its great *2026-01-20, version 1.2.2* Geniunely I dont leave reviews but frankly I want to bump this up because it has: CONTROLLER SUPPORT, old and new soundtrack, crt shaders, great touch controls ontop of CONTROLLER SUPPORT, very very fun job system making it a great phone game on the go ### 5/5 — Controller Support *2025-08-24, version 1.2.2* Controller Support Please ### 5/5 — とても楽しい✨ *2025-05-20* ＳＦＣ版を何度も周回していたのを思い出しながらプレイできました。自分は操作も特に不満を感じることはなかったです。むしろ色々なサポート機能があることでよりゲームを楽しめているまでありました。 ご意見を出してくれている皆さんの気持ちを運営側が真摯に受け止めて修正してくれているおかげかな..と。ありがとうございます。 刀のエフェクトが好きなのでプレイ中は愛用しています。アプリ版は刀の表記が漢字に変更になっているので「アメノムラクモ」も「天叢雲」に変えてくれると愛用者としてはテンションが上がるなと思いました。 刀はひらがな表記にも思い入れがあったんですけど(笑)..あと刀は出てくるタイミングが微妙に遅いと思ってます。第一世界でももう一本あしゅら以外の刀の銘柄が欲しい.. 刀は店売りにはせずに タイクーン城で備前長船（宝箱） サーゲイト城で虎徹（宝箱） 第二世界の真エクスデス城で菊一文字（宝箱） くらいのバランスが程よい気がする。 第三世界に行くと物語の流れで菊一文字は正宗と入手できるタイミングが同じくらいになり陽の目をみないことがあるので.. あの憎っくきギルガメと戦うためにも菊一文字が第二世界にあれば..と、幾度となく思ったものです.. ### 5/5 — 컨트롤러 ox가 자꾸 바뀝니다 *2025-05-11* 이게 좀 불편하네요 ### 5/5 — アチーブメントの修正ありがとうございます *2025-04-26* アチーブメントを全て達成しても最後のアチーブメントがアンロックされない不具合ありましたが、本日ログインしたところ全てのアチーブメントが達成される状況となりました。 運営さん修正ありがとうございます。 ### 5/5 — バグ多いとか言ってる人へ *2024-11-10* まず操作性でダッシュできないのは欠陥ではあるけれど、それぐらいで評価を 1に下げるのは評価が落ちるのでやめてください。強制ではありません。そしてフリーズがとか言っている人は機種を変えた方がいいと思います。こんな大容量ゲームをなぜケチってスマホでプレイするのでしょうか。 ### 5/5 — やはり間違いない名作 *2024-07-03* レビューに不具合、バグありという意見が多く、かなり悩みましたが、久しぶりにプレイしたい気持ちになり、思い切って購入しました。 iPhone14でプレイしていますが、今のところ特に問題なくプレイできています。 たまーに、並び替えの前列後列への移動が反応が遅かったりしますが、ジョブチェンジした時にしか場所替えはしないのでさほど問題なし(笑 もともとプレイしていたので記憶も残っており、詰まることもなくサクサク進められています。 タッチ移動も便利でよく使います。 MAPによってはタッチ移動を使わない方がいいこともありますが、こちらも特に問題はないですね。 ピクセルリマスター版？はプレイしてないのでそちらとどれほど違いがあるのかわかりませんが、通常版をプレイしたいだけなら、この価格でスマホでプレイできて、ボリュームもしっかりあり、ストーリー、敵の数、難易度もちょうど良く、ベストだと思います。 個人的な感想というか、気持ちですが、この頃のFFが一番好きだったなぁ〜と思いを馳せながら、のんびり楽しませてもらっています♪ クリアしたらⅣとⅥも買おうかなと考えてます。 新しい試みや綺麗なグラフィックも良いですが、古き良きゲームもやはり楽しいです。 FFをこの世に出してくれたことに感謝です。 今後のご活躍にも期待しております。 ### 5/5 — Pretty good game *2024-02-25, version 1.1.0* This game (like 6 and 9) haven’t had much added in terms of new additional content. Even Final Fantasy 2 got Dawn of Souls. However, I really liked how this game approached things. It really impressed me and the overall way to grind (after the update) let me grease through that rough patch and get straight to doing the story. The story was actually very nice, and was pretty complex. The characters also seemed to get more time to be fleshed out better which was something I didn’t experience in FF4. I also thought there was a lot of creativity oozing out of this game. Especially when it came to the small cutscenes or moments you fight against different enemies. The ending was also very nice and was refreshing. I can understand why (when asked) the FF7R director said if he had a choice he’d love to remake this game. I’d be excited for something like that. This game is definitely worth a play through. ### 5/5 — Bonheur *2024-02-24* Quel bonheur de rejouer à ce classique. En particulier pour la bande-son remaniée ### 5/5 — Good *2024-02-23, version 1.1.0* Good --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
