### 4/5 — One thing

*2026-08-16, version 3.8.0*

Love everything about the game and everything, 
But is there anyway you can look into why the game (Crashes/Boots) me out of the app every so often and needs be rebooted. Quite annoying and is the first reason why I deleted it the first time causing me to restart all over again.. would be much appreciated. Other than that keep doing a good job

### 3/5 — EOS

*2026-07-08, version 3.8.0*

wow. kind of anticlimactic about eos. smdh. not even before the final release.

### 2/5 — Having issue with fighting type of monsters

*2026-07-04, version 3.6.10*

I am stuck on second final fantasy story chapter 2, please add a guide on how to defeat the screech because I am at level and have high good overall power. I still fail the battle, can't get over the second wave.

### 3/5 — Huh ?

*2026-06-22, version 3.6.10*

I put the battle on manual and the game still automatically fights for me and chooses a basic attack.

### 2/5 — see below

*2026-06-20, version 3.6.10*

doesn't matter looking for 15 GB game ?

### 4/5 — I LOVE DADA SEPHIROTH

*2026-06-16, version 3.6.10*

I love this game a lot and all the characters and storyline, it’s enjoyable to fight but it’s very difficult for me to level up stuff or equpt things in characters, but it might be because I started the game not too long ago, I like how they go from cartoonish to realism! And i lowk don’t know how to pull characters which makes me a bit sad but I’ll find out!!

### 3/5 — Backbone support

*2026-06-13, version 3.6.10*

Adding backbone support would make this game more appealing, still a great game that’s free

### 1/5 — Can’t even play

*2026-05-21, version 3.6.10*

I can’t even get into the game. I get to the loading screen, I press to play and it tells me “An error has occurred, returning to title screen” every single time. Please fix this.

### 1/5 — Honest Review

*2026-05-19, version 3.6.0*

Game continues to crash during gameplay, it’s literally unplayable.  This has been an issue for years now.

### 1/5 — Co-op

*2026-05-18, version 3.6.0*

No one does co-op should just add a random npc feature for it.

### 4/5 — помогите пожалуйста 🙏🙏🙏

*2026-05-16*

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — All it does is crash.

*2026-07-26, version 3.8.0*

I can’t get it to stay open for 5 minutes. There’s plenty of room on my iPad and I have no issue with my other games. Turning the iPad off and on doesn’t help.

### 1/5 — This game need a offline version

*2026-07-17, version 3.8.0*

This needs is a offline version if you’re shutting this game. Just sell us a 10.99 version for or something

### 1/5 — Dont waste your time

*2026-07-09, version 3.8.0*

This game’s end of service is October.  Don’t waste your time and money.  This company has killed more mobile games than most companies have made.

### 1/5 — Canceling the service???

*2026-07-08, version 3.8.0*

Wtf I’ve played since day one and for every day since release. Spent money on the pass every month and also on the crystals every now and then. Really regret doing that. This is going to harm pt3 sales for sure.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2026-07-08, version 3.8.0*

Game is shutting down. 0 compensation. Complete rug pull and to top it off… canon exclusive story to the series is locked away in this game once it shuts down…

### 1/5 — All it does is crash

*2026-06-27, version 3.6.10*

Hopped back on being playing for 5 minutes and already crashed 4 times

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-06-26, version 3.6.10*

App kept crashing and couldn’t even load past title screen

### 1/5 — Too many app crashes

*2026-06-25, version 3.6.10*

This game is becoming unplayable on iPhone. It constantly freezes, crashes, and throws me back to the iPhone home screen. I’m tired of losing progress because the app can’t stay stable for more than a few minutes. The gameplay is great when it works, but the constant crashes completely ruin the experience. Square Enix needs to fix these stability issues instead of focusing only on new content and events. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Use to be a great game

*2026-06-23, version 3.6.10*

I am a day one player and I say the game use to be a well balanced very good game now it’s a cash grab if you don’t have new stuff you will find playing the game very hard

### 1/5 — T

*2026-05-21, version 3.6.10*

Love FF, but this game will not connect you to any co-op lobbies. Also, too many weapon abilities to only have two and the battle system is dumb. Dissidia was the best game there was until SE messed that up too.

### 5/5 — Controller Support

*2026-07-28, version 3.8.0*

Needs controller support!

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-07-19, version 3.8.0*

I love this game and I love the story before Cloud and other characters. I’m really disappointed at controls of the game cause you can’t control the character (like: dodge, attack at the moment when you want). For the difference: game like FFVII intergrade, Rebirth and (future game) Revelation, theses games have controls like REAL RPG but not this. This game has way too simple controls (I would even say that there are no controls absolutely), for example SQUARE ENIX has game called: Final Fantasy DISSIDIA DUELLUM, this game has battle controls even better then this game.

I want to ask to have an option to have and change controls just like DISSIDIA DUELLUM FINAL FANTASY, FFVII Intergrade and Rebirth

Thank you for this game I like this game and I wish to make it better

### 5/5 — Soooo amazing…. Sad it’s over

*2026-07-08, version 3.8.0*

I’ve played every day I have been able since day 1 (almost every day) and am more than heartbroken that it’s over… with no real explanation to us players. There was so much potential left untapped stories left untold. And they are probably doing it so they can focus on that terrible new Dissidia game… so so sad because it’s not worth playing in my opinion. By the way I have 2 children named after the original FFVII Game. I’ve played pretty much every final fantasy game available and there are hundreds of them (look it up) real fans of an amazing franchise unite!

### 5/5 — Servers are shutting down

*2026-07-08, version 3.8.0*

To anyone reading this the game will go end of service in October 2026. Just square killing off another game due to “failed market projections” duellum is also a terrible game that’s super predatory with micro transactions.

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2026-05-25, version 3.6.10*

Fire game🥹🥹

### 5/5 — Addd controller pleasseeee

*2026-05-01, version 3.6.0*

😭😭😭😭

### 5/5 — Fun and fresh approach to FF!

*2026-04-23, version 3.6.0*

This game is so addictive for me as a person who has loved all of the FF7 related games! There is so much to do in game and so many ways to customise your characters. I need more games like this from Square Enix!

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2026-04-11*

Bom demais ter a antologia na palma das mãos!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-04-09, version 3.6.0*

Great game really reminds me of the original and I love the new story line

### 5/5 — Streamlined Compilation of FFVII Compendium

*2026-03-26, version 3.5.0*

Ol’ “PantlessStander”’s review from 1 year ago clearly doesn’t understand how Stamina ACTUALLY works, huh..
“You only get 15 max, really”? No. Not really. It goes up to *999*, and Stamina Tonics recover up to 999 regardless of your “max stamina” at whatever Player Level, which *increases* as Player Level increases (and is absolutely not at all that hard to do).
I have *never* not had Stamina to do anything, and there’s plenty of content that doesn’t use Stamina *at all*.
I swear some people are just obliviously, woefully incompetent and lacking basic intelligence. The “gacha” system for weapons isn’t even that bad either! You *always* get resources, you never get anything you won’t actually use, unlike certain other games (Brave Exvius wasn’t actually good because of the excessively high number of characters, and you’d mostly only ever get duplicates, here it’s just *weapons*, and the resources are always usable to upgrade or exchange for other resources).
The gameplay itself is solid, you really do NOT ever have to pay a cent, just strategically design your party composition to cater for the battle situation, and focus on what’s going on.
