The old version was a bit janky with how the touch screen interface was rigged to work with it, so a lot of this is a step up. What makes me sad is the fact that y'all didn't put in the Arcane Labyrinth from the anniversary edition. That was a fun place where we clould do level grinding, and have a few interesting puzzles/mysteries and the ultima weapons. I'm still going to continue to play this one to see if there are any hidden Easter eggs like that. Also, I love most of the new music! Edited

Great port of a unique RPG that many probably skipped, myself included. Thanks to this release I finally finished the game! I only gave it 4 stars due to the occasional bug - the game crashed or went to a black screen every now and then, so save often. It happened after boss battles and leaving the dungeons. It also happened after the final boss fight 4x which was an inconvenience.

What Im loving the most is the music. It seriously changes the entire tone of the game, just upgrading from the old-school beeps and boops from NES days. Amazing game to rediscover with this modern, yet retro pixel remaster! Also, game does have auto-saves. It hides the first slot which is the autosave slot. You have to scroll up a little. Edit: So im in Mysidia Cave, lots of play time, and now i cannot lock my screen while playing because it causes my game to freeze when exiting combat. Edited

Pros: Graphics look amazing, Mobile is nice but personallly I would've preferred switch, Faithfulness to the original is incredible, gameplay, is very pretty & smooth yet very faithful, Music is outstanding, without doubt, one of the main reason to buy this. Cons: none of the new content from the various remakes to add playability, no face portraits when speaking(minor nitpick), no console release(yet), can feel a bit clunky, diagonal movement is weird.

The game feels good overall. Controls feel smooth, and the "tap mode" works surprisingly well. Graphics look nice and give that nostalgic feel without going overboard. The mobile version is missing some features from the console and PC versions (changing encounter rates, portrait of characters when talking to them, and fast walking outside of tap mode). FF2 has always been a weird game to play, but this version, I'm my opinion, is the best way to play it.
