Would really appreciate a controller update for this great game! ### 2/5 — Unfair *2023-03-16* I would give this a 5 star if you didn’t have to pay for the rest of the chapters,everything is based on how much money people can get out of you nowadays days sad ### 4/5 — Controller Support *2023-02-22, version 1.0.8* I love this game, but would be more fun with controller support ### 3/5 — No sound *2023-02-11, version 1.0.8* No sound coming at all from the game 😕 ### 4/5 — Controller support please! *2022-12-27, version 1.0.8* Awesome port of the game, the only thing they could make it better would be controller support! ### 3/5 — Broken *2022-09-16, version 1.0.8* Cloud save sync has been broken for months. Support has acknowledged this bug and claimed it was escalated. Still broken. Game seems abandoned. ### 5/5 — It’s good *2022-09-15, version 1.0.8* Please add controller support ### 3/5 — Controller support please *2022-08-10, version 1.0.8* Controller support please!!! ### 5/5 — Great way to play FFXV *2022-07-18, version 1.0.8* Love this game but would love to see Backbone support for it. It would certainly make good use of it. ### 5/5 — Backbone *2022-07-06, version 1.0.8* I love this more casual version of the game, and it would be even better if it had support for Backbone or other controllers. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Baffling *2023-05-29* The text doesn’t stay on the screen long and there’s a ton of long names appearing so you’re constantly in a panic trying to read everything. So you have no time to commit anything to memory let alone take in the next information… and you never know where the text will show up so you have to already be looking in the right spot to even catch it. It’s as if the devs never sampled the game, or just completely don’t care about the gamer’s experience. In my opinion that deems the game UNPLAYABLE. Play this game for complete anxiety. ### 1/5 — Iphone 14 not supported *2023-03-12* I guess given my iphone is a newer gen doesn’t matter because the game is extremely laggy and i have the graphics and everything set to the lowest. Not sure if it needs to be updated but it makes it hard to play when this happens. The game it good though. ### 1/5 — Fraud *2023-02-22, version 1.0.8* This game is expensive and gets you interested. Then makes it impossible to grow. Buildings take billions of days to upgrade. I would not suggest even trying this game. ### 1/5 — No controller support *2022-12-29, version 1.0.8* Please add support for controllers ### 1/5 — doesn’t work offline *2022-12-22, version 1.0.8* I bought this thinking I could play offline. I cannot. Not being able to play offline makes absolutely no sense… I pretty much want a refund until it’s offline…. ### 1/5 — Game controller *2022-11-26, version 1.0.8* Please update too support controller backbone ### 1/5 — Pay to play *2022-07-16, version 1.0.8* Was loving the game so much until I found out I had to pay to continue playing 👎 ### 1/5 — Pay to play *2022-07-07, version 1.0.8* This game is NOT Free as advertised. Need to pay $20 to play through. Great start, but having to pay past chapter one after marketing as free is frustrating. ### 1/5 — Kind of cheap to make pay for all the chapters *2022-07-02, version 1.0.8* That’s really cheap to make people pay for all the chapters really cheap really really really cheap make all the chapters free ### 1/5 — Controller support needed badly *2022-06-15, version 1.0.8* Love the game but let’s add controller support already!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Please make give controller support *2024-01-22* I bought and played on Xbox I since last my Xbox. I got really excited to see I could play it again even with the graphics differences. But would it be so hard to make the controls the same as Xbox or PlayStation so we have the option to play with regular controller? I sift through games and only play if I can with a controller I’m sure in not alone on this ones please give the controller support don’t think I’ll play until you do please and thanks ### 5/5 — So good that I can’t even explain it *2023-06-29* I LOVE THIS GAME I’ve been playing it for HOURS it’s so good and I love how it’s not like the classic games where you can’t move this game is soooooooo good I recommend it ### 5/5 — Fantastic - the low ratings are from cheapskates *2023-06-16* This game is fantastic. It has a great story, engaging characters and is a lot of fun. If you look at the low ratings here it’s from people who are upstate that they have to pay for a premium game and expect everything free. I far prefer paying for a game in full in one transaction than a ton of micro transactions. Also the first chapter is free, which is a great way to give one a taste of the game before committing. I love this game. ### 5/5 — Please add controller support *2023-02-22, version 1.0.8* Love this game, but it would be so much better if it had controller support! ### 5/5 — Amazing Experience! *2023-02-10, version 1.0.8* EDIT: saves not syncing to iCloud on iOS 16. Not sure about older iOS versions. Game needs an update to fix. This is a great way to experience FFXV’s story. The Pocket Edition has voice acting, music, and similar cutscenes to the console version. And I love it! The Pocket Edition does play linearly, but you can replay chapters over and over even if you haven’t beaten the game yet. That’s what I’m doing because I love grinding for levels... which would have been a nice option instead of having to replay linear story in order to get into more battles. But this has a decent mix since the main point to it is to tell the story and encourage console play. AND I LOVE that it is a premium game. I’ll buy any other premium FFXV mobile content they make. ### 5/5 — 6/5 STARS *2023-01-17, version 1.0.8* Best mobile rpg 2023 ### 5/5 — Controller support *2022-11-27, version 1.0.8* I love the chibi-esque artstyle they did with one of my fav FF’s! What would make it feel complete is if it had controller support. Can you guys add controller support for this soon? ### 5/5 — great game *2022-10-11, version 1.0.8* would love backbone controller support ### 5/5 — Absolutely beautiful for a Chibi version *2022-10-02, version 1.0.8* For those who, like me, finds the original game a bit complicated to play and hard to understand the politics, this pocket version has definitely simplified everything and made the plot and gameplay just as enjoyable. Of course, I’m sure that with this pocket version, some side quests and plots within the storyline has been subtracted. But I would pay $20 to play the entire thing again. Truly beautiful and the plot is so enjoyable, very touching, and breathtaking. Give this version a try if you have always been an FF-Fan. ❤️❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — Controller support *2022-09-17, version 1.0.8* Please add controller support and also the game is great --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
