## What is TheWorldEndswithYouSoloRemixHD?

SUPPORTED DEVICES
iOS 5.1.1 or later is required.

Square Enix’s fresh-faced hit The New York Times called “one of the best role playing games ever designed for anything” has busted onto iOS in a big way, with a slick and addictive new combat system, eye-popping HD art, and (of course) plenty of zetta awesome reasons for longtime fans to double dip.

Arm yourself with psychic superpowers and battle your way through a 7-day gauntlet of action: the Reaper’s Game.


THE SETUP
-------------------------------------------------
Welcome to Shibuya, a mishmash of attitudes and styles in the heart of Tokyo.

A boy named Neku wakes up in a crowded intersection, alone and unaware of how he got there. Then, he receives a weird text: “Clear this mission...or face erasure.” With that, Neku is thrust into a life-or-death Game that sends him scrambling down streets paved with one riddle after another...

What is the Reaper’s Game? Why is Neku a Player, and what is he playing for? Will the Game really end if he survives all 7 days? Another mystery is always around the corner.


THE PAYOFF
-------------------------------------------------
 -  Intuitive, addictive combat with a twist
Activate your combat abilities, or “psychs,” with simple touch commands like tapping, slashing, and dragging. Comfy with that? Control Neku and his Game partner on the same screen and take the combat up a notch. Like loot? Boost your item drops in battle with the revamped Fusion system.

 -  Deep replay value
Finish the main story to unlock a hilarious bonus chapter, more quests and items to find, new combat challenges, and secret reports that flesh out the story even more.

 -  Explore a living, breathing city
Neku’s sprawling world is based on the real-life Shibuya in Tokyo. Visit real locations and absorb some real Japanese culture through a hip fantasy lens.

 -  Redrawn art and Retina display support
Enjoy the game in full HD on your Retina-enabled iPhone 4 or later device. Art and animation across the game has been redrawn just for this release, making combat a beautiful experience. This is how all 2D classics should look.

 -  The ultimate soundtrack: 60 songs
Composer Takeharu Ishimoto’s complete, sonically sublime soundtrack is included right in the game with high-quality audio and full vocals, including remixes and new songs.

### 5/5 — My favorite app/game since ds

*2022-06-27, version 1.2.5*

No complaints here love all alround  this is #1 game for 15 year sorry about no more details storyline the music tells it all

### 5/5 — It works on iOS 14.7, hooray!

*2021-08-07, version 1.2.5*

I love this game, played it years ago and just recently discovered it’s available on the App store again. There are a bunch of comments saying it won’t load, but it’s working flawlessly for me on iOS 14.7 ( urrent as of August 2021) using an iPad Pro 12.9”, 2nd gen. (from 2018). 

For anyone who hasn’t played it - I highly recommend this game, it’s a true classic with a fantastic soundtrack, terrific artwork, and unique, interesting combat. And the storyline…seriously, don’t read about the plot in the wiki, just play the game…you’ll be glad you did.

### 4/5 — Screen turns white a stops working properly

*2021-04-25, version 1.2.5*

While the game is fairly stable, it tends to turn white and stops working. And when I restart the app it temporarily solves it not nosing when it could happen. Could you update this app so it supports the latest iOS? It’ll be greatly appreciated, thank you!

### 5/5 — WHERE IS FINAL FANTASY VIII?!

*2020-09-25, version 1.2.5*

FINAL FANTASY VIII.

GIVE IT. YOU REMASTERED IT. GIVE. US. THE. GAME.

### 4/5 — One of the best RPGs ever made.

*2020-07-01, version 1.2.5*

First off, thanks you Square Enix for keeping this app updated for 8 years. A lot of companies have abandoned their apps when they stop working and you have consistently kept this app up to date throughout the years so that it can still be enjoyed.

I have two suggestions. Firstly, please update this app with iCloud support. For longer games, like RPGs, the ability to backup and keep your progress between devices is important. Please add this feature into the game.

Secondly, please update some of the lower resolution art assets in the game. The Switch version of the game looks incredibly sharp in contrast to this version of the game; and yes I do understand that some of that is due to file size limitations for App Store apps.

My first suggestion is definitely the one I would love to see implemented the most. Thank you regardless for keeping this game up to date. The iPad, for years, has been my preferred way to experience this game; even over the DS original.

### 1/5 — Won’t count new game+ achievements

*2020-05-27, version 1.2.3*

In the post game, you have different tasks to earn stars and it doesn't count day 3’s final task even if you do it

### 1/5 — Unable to start game after pressing new game button.

*2020-04-05, version 1.2.3*

Please update this or take it off the market if it won’t be supported for iOS 13

### 1/5 — Game doesn’t load

*2020-02-01, version 1.2.3*

Just paid $20 and it won’t load!  I want a refund.

### 1/5 — Black screen cutscenes

*2020-01-26, version 1.2.3*

Please update

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2020-01-21, version 1.2.3*

It doesn’t support ios13 on the iPad
