### 3/5 — Not the greatest

*2026-08-21, version 3.0.60158*

I purchased this game and have had a little fun with it, the art is pretty and I love the music and the cool story, but ultimately I am dropping it because the fights (turn based) are very redundant, long, and boring. It’s the same characters making the same moves over and over. You can’t hardly explore the game without running into an enemy that will cause you to have a long boring fight. Maybe this game just isn’t for me.

### 4/5 — Controller Support

*2026-08-14, version 3.0.60158*

Please add controller support to this game, it would really benefit from it

### 4/5 — Wow

*2026-08-05, version 3.0.60158*

Great game! Really wish I could play my music while playing it though, music stops when playing the game… I would love if I could have my music playing while I hear the sfx from the game 🙏

### 4/5 — Très bon moment passé

*2026-07-25*

Super jeu au tour par tour qui devrait plaire à ceux qui aiment ce style! 
Points forts: Jolie durée de vie (pour le finir à 100%)
Decors magnifiques
Ambiances très bien rendues
Histoire attachante
Points faibles: Peu d’attaques magiques différentes
Les achievement du game center ont l’air de ne pas marcher

### 4/5 — Wow

*2026-07-23, version 3.0.60158*

Great game! Really wish I could play my music while playing it though, music stops when playing the game…

### 4/5 — Fix pls

*2026-07-19, version 3.0.60158*

Amazing game but new game + doesn’t save the data and resets me everytime

### 5/5 — Meisterwerk

*2026-07-11*

Optisch wunderschön und spielerisch top! Bringt meine Erinnerungen an die damalige Final Fantasy Zeit zurück 🥹
Die negativen Bewertungen zur Steuerung kann ich nicht nachvollziehen. Spiele auf dem iPad Pro M4.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review!

### 5/5 — Obra maestra del Pixelart

*2026-07-09, version 3.0.60158*

Sea of Stars es uno de los mejores juegos Pixelart que he jugado nunca.

El juego se siente vivo, te envuelven sus escenarios con el arte, los colores y la iluminación. Un detalle “tonto” que me sorprendió y habla muy bien del nivel de detalle es que en una cueva habían unas columnas verdes de cristal, al pasar por detrás los personajes no solo se difuminaron sutilmente, también se distorsionó su forma y se iluminaron del mismo color, tal como sucede con el vidrio. Lo que hicieron con pixeles me parece imposible de superar…

Además la historia es increíble, nunca sabes qué esperar en la próxima misión y tiene bastante contenido. Llevo ya 22h de juego pero creo que no he superado ni el 50% de la historia.

Y la música, la música es INCREIBLE. Súbanle el volumen al máximo porque se lo merece. Recuerdo entrar a la Isla Espectral, ir a la taberna del pueblo, y quedarme como 15 min escuchando cada una de las 10 canciones que tocó la banda de los piratas. Simplemente me parecía descortés con los desarrolladores no quedarme a escuchar.

Gracias por este juego y terminando esta merecida reseña seguiré disfrutando la obra maestra que nos regalaron :)

### 5/5 — Le meilleur RPG

*2026-07-05*

Évaluation :
Le design ( couleur, lumiere, décore…) ➡️ 10/10
Le gameplay ➡️ 9/10 
Musique ➡️ 10/10 
Histoire ➡️ 10/10 

Amélioration : 
- s’inspirer de zelda link awaking pour le coté open world / énigmes 
- plus d’accessoires pour diversifier d’avantage les attaques ou les stratégies 
- des ennemis moins prévisibles avec plus d’options d’attaques 
- ajouter des déjà indirects comme poison, brûlure, sommeil… 

Je serais prêt a payer 20 euro pour un contenu plus riche.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review!

### 5/5 — Pretty good

*2026-07-03, version 3.0.60158*

I hate playing games on my phone but I figured why not give this a shot maybe it’s good and boy was I correct I love it so far

### 3/5 — Excellent Game, Missing Content

*2026-06-29, version 3.0.60158*

The game is excellent. It captures the feel of the games that inspired it like Chrono Trigger while still doing new things so it’s not just a boring retread of successful ideas. It seems to be missing the Throes of the Watchmaker scenario despite otherwise being on par with the pc and console release. It’s unclear if there is an issue keeping it from starting or if it’s not part of the mobile release but the latter seems unlikely in light of how it otherwise matches other versions. Either way it needs to be addressed.

### 5/5 — Amazing JRPG throwback

*2026-06-25, version 3.0.60158*

This game first caught my attention back in 2020. I was hoping it would come to IOS. 90% through and I just love it. While it may not have the strong storyline of Chrono Trigger, it’s still a nice storyline overall. I love that they removed a lot of the little hurdles that made old school JRPGs hard, and streamlined everything else. Highly recommend to everyone who love the genre. Hoping we get a port of The Messenger now 😭

### 4/5 — Evermist Crash

*2026-06-24*

Mit freudiger Erwartung haben wir das Update geladen und gehofft, dass die App nicht mehr an der selben Stelle abstürzt. Leider wurde die Hoffnung enttäuscht. Sehr schade, denn wir hätten das schöne Spiel sehr gerne weiter gespielt.

Den fünften Stern geben wir gerne, sobald der Fehler behoben ist.

### 5/5 — 昔の日本RPGぽい！

*2026-06-19*

監視者の島までのプレイですが面白いです！
タイミングの所作があるのと、敵のレベルは秘宝を使わなければ強いですが対処法は用意されています。（╹◡╹）
久しぶりに良質な新作RPGに触れてうきうきしました、ありがとうございます！！！

追記　クリア出来ました！！
面白かった〜！！！（╹◡╹）

### 1/5 — Keep crashing

*2026-08-12, version 3.0.60158*

The game keeps crashing at the evermist landing right after the elder mist fight. Looks like a great game, but seems unplayable on iPad.

### 1/5 — No controller support

*2026-07-05, version 3.0.60158*

Please add controller support

### 1/5 — Boring

*2026-07-04, version 3.0.60158*

Played it 10 minutes, just running around clueless in a castle.  Uninstalled.

### 1/5 — I keep losing my progress

*2026-07-03, version 3.0.60158*

I am playing this on my phone, sometimes i pause the game and switch to other apps spend sometime on something and then return to play the game but since the save feature is trashy i lose all my progress and need to repeat same battles and same story that is very annoying and i am really regretting this purchase.

### 1/5 — Fantastic game but Crashes often

*2026-07-01, version 3.0.60158*

Love the game but I have had to stop playing it because my load is stuck on a mission that keeps crashing and don’t want to have to start over. On the Blue crystal mission in the lab my game can not progress without crashing, also crashes after the death stare attack during the dweller of dread

### 1/5 — Bug

*2026-06-26*

L’audio ne marche pas sur iPhone 15 plus

**Developer response:** Bonjour, vérifiez que vous n'êtes pas en mode silencieux ou ne pas déranger :)

### 1/5 — あまりにもバグが多すぎる

*2026-06-02*

作品としての満足度は高いですが、あまりにもバグが多すぎる。

ボス戦で画面が真っ暗になったり、液晶画面が突然砂嵐状態になったり。
アプリを落としたところでボス戦の前からやり直し。

バグの修正が見込めない以上、いくら作り込まれた作品だろうと前向きな評価は出来ません。
日本語の翻訳が所々曖昧なところも若干気になります。

**Developer response:** Hello, we're working on it, I'm very sorry!

### 1/5 — Crashes at Everest’s Landing

*2026-05-31, version 1.1.60013*

Love the game so far. After the trial, thr game wont get past Everest’s landing without crashing. I have redownloaded the game twice and played with no other apps open on IOS. Very frustrated having paid for a game that I can only play the beginning of…

### 1/5 — Fantastic game but Crashes often

*2026-05-29, version 1.1.60013*

Love the game but I have had to stop playing it because my load is stuck on a mission that keeps crashing and don’t want to have to start over. On the Blue crystal mission in the lab my game can not progress without crashing

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2026-05-19, version 1.1.60013*

Keeps crashing at evermist mission. Fun game so far, but nothing works to keep it from crashing

### 5/5 — Most fun since Chrono Trigger on SNES!!!!

*2026-09-04, version 3.0.60158*

This game is clearly leaning into the nostalgia of the SNES RPG era, and I’m here for it. The gameplay is smooth, the story is compelling, and the nods to cult classics are amazing! Just one question - when can we get the DLC on the App Store? Please!

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2026-08-26, version 3.0.60158*

This game is absolutely AMAZING!! With how much story and gameplay there is, it wouldn’t be just $10. I’d easily pay 30-40 just for this game with how much content it gives us!! I used to play this game on my console before it got taken off, so I never got to experience a lot of the things I can/have now with it on my phone, and I never thought it’d be this big. THANK YOU DEVS FOR MAKING THIS GAME 💜💜

### 5/5 — 10/10 Requesting DLC

*2026-08-12, version 3.0.60158*

Sea of Stars on mobile is amazing. Touch controls are very simple and comfortable and the controller support makes this that much better. I’m loving the experience and hope to see DLC content in either a future update or in app purchase. Totally recommend and hope to see the full experience come to life on mobile. Thank you!!!!

### 5/5 — Excellent !

*2026-07-29*

J’espère qu’il y aura le dlc sur cette version !

### 5/5 — Really good port

*2026-07-29*

Very cool game, absolutely love the art style, the pixel art, the combat is unique but gets a little stale after a while, rest of the critique, comes with the ending, but 100% worth the experience.

### 5/5 — Ein Meisterwerk

*2026-07-28*

Ich spiele es nun zum 5ten Mal durch um lv 30 zu bekommen und das wahre Ende zu sehen.

Bitte gebt uns auch den DLC bitte bitte bitte 😢

### 5/5 — Love the old school style

*2026-07-27*

I love the game 
FF7 Vibes :)

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review!

### 5/5 — Will it continue???

*2026-07-21, version 3.0.60158*

I love this game it’s art it’s fighting style the story everything! Please don’t stop keep it up this game was amazing :), and sad you know why I didn’t think yall would push to get their but it’s ah roller coaster of emotions. This game has a special place.

### 5/5 — Ótima experiência

*2026-07-14*

Um dos poucos jogos que prestam pra celulares. Até agora conto com dois na minha lista, este e heros adventure

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-07-13, version 3.0.60158*

I really enjoyed this game. You can make it easier or harder depending on what game style you want. The World and the characters make a delightful story. Nostalgic but also modern at the same time. Worth playing and beating.
