### 5/5 — For Better Or For Worse

*2026-08-07, version 1.2.2*

I absolutely love this game and I’m glad I can play it on my phone with new (iffy) translation, new effects, and graphical “enhancements”. I couldn’t read the small condensed font at first, but found a better font in settings (still could be bigger like SNES). The color vibrancy is very off putting, as the game was more dark, gritty and realistic on the SNES. Despite these flaws, Final Fantasy VI is still my favorite RPG game of all time, for better or for worse.

### 5/5 — Bring more nostalgia, 7th saga

*2026-07-04, version 1.2.2*

These games are classic, and above some of the other complaints, very convenient to play instead of hooking up the old system to tvs that don’t have the proper connections anymore.  I have the NES, the super NES, and these games to go with the systems.  And I tell you, it’s a hassle to have the systems sit out, being bulky, and buy all the adapters to try and hook up the connections to new tvs. 
These other people complaining are just picking at anything and everything they can, instead of looking at, at least you CAN play it now.  Some of these games on eBay are hundreds of dollars.  So be grateful that you can buy it on Apple Store and at least experience it.

On the other hand; please bring back one of the hardest RPG’s of all time for the super nes, 7th saga!!!  This would work perfect as an app, due to the level grinding of the game.  As your day goes on and need to waste time, or sit on the couch to play, or just grinding out levels, it would be perfect to pick up and play!  I would gladly pay $10-$20 to play this game on my phone instead of only being able to play at home on the couch!

### 1/5 — Glitched? Broken?

*2026-05-14, version 1.2.2*

I think the game is glitched. Very early on in a story battle with Vargas you have to use Raging Fist to end the battle, but the game never registers that you used it (I used it three times in a row) then the tutorial for that exact move comes up but then Vargas KOs you with a move that always does 2hp more than your correct HP before you can do the move again. Did they not play test this?

### 5/5 — Super Teil!

*2026-03-23*

Tolle „Neuauflage“ da kann ich nicht viel kritisieren. Ich würde mich freuen wenn die alten Dragon Quest Teile auch so liebevoll restauriert und mit deutschen Texten versehen erscheinen.

### 5/5 — Хорошая игра

*2026-03-06*

Одна из лучших частей серии, если вас не пугает 16 бит SNES эпохи. Радует что есть русский язык внезапно

### 5/5 — Темка обалденная

*2026-02-20*

Отличная игра, скорее всего моя самая любимая из всех переизданий, разрабы не боялись сделать что-то новое и вышло классно

### 5/5 — 라스트 전투에서 게임이 멈춰버리네요

*2026-01-25*

버그수정해줘요

### 5/5 — Masterpiece

*2026-01-11, version 1.2.2*

This has to be one of the greatest video games in history

### 3/5 — Ultima weapon

*2026-01-04, version 1.2.2*

Unavailable in the treasure chest.

### 1/5 — Crashes on iOS 26.1 for iPhone

*2025-12-11, version 1.2.2*

Crashes on iOS 26.1 for iPhone
