    Man what a great game, I've been playing all afternoon and just went through the Zelda tribute part and the first real boss.

    Utterly brilliant. I feel cheap and dirty paying only 99 cents. Sure didn't see any IAP either, all I can say is thank you good sirs ;)

    Ha ha I have to add that some of the dialog really caught me off guard and made me chuckle several times. It definitly has an adult sense of humour, the dialog after you rescue the princess is quite um colorful. :0

    Second this. I am playing Final Fantasy Dimensions parallel to this and now i am going to be neglecting FFD for a good long while I think! only suggestion I have is make the menus touch friendly - otherwise a very smart control implementation and really slick once you get used to it.

    I'm actually quite surprised at the $.99 price point on this.
    It was $2.99 (still a bargain) on Android, but looks like they even just dropped it to $1.99.

    Whatever the case, really hope this does well.

    THIS.

    I really hope this does so well.

    Cheers for a good amount of premium games lately, and hopes that they become successful at that marketing strategy.

    Big surprise, totally agree with everyone - good quality JRPG. Only $.99? Amazing. I especially liked the way this game starts you off, totally awesome. It's a tutorial without feeling like a tutorial, overall great job so far.

    well, i don't normally post much, though i do read a lot of these comments here on TA, have to say rpg's are without a doubt my thing and am proper impressed with this one, controls are really good imho, for a dollar (69pence in uk) it's a total bargain, extremely playable and really well made, good stuff!!

    Loving this more and more. Have gotten used to the menus and now think the controls are perfect.

    The humor is hilarious. Just like a bunch of teens would sound like playing an RPG - like their reaction to f***ing random encounters.

    This is going to probably take a lot of time away from other recent purchases. Highly recommended from what I've played. Hell, a dollar is worth the short amount I have played!

    LMAO I walked into the secret room in Episode 2. "There's the guy with all the girls! And there's that guy with mother issues!"

    I've played about 6.5 hours so far and it's says I'm 33% done. I should note that there are are arenas to fight in for special loot and side quests- (kill so many of a certain enemy for cool rewards) So it could be quite a bit longer as it says I only have 9 of 39 side quests complete and only 2 of 39 secrets.

    Is this game hard? I'm looking for a challenge. Most Final Fantasy are too easy for me, that's why I ask.

    You can change the difficulty to hardcore mode. I changed the difficulty right from the start to keep me on my toes. :D You'll need to heal up a lot or stock up on rations but it's not that hard to manage.

    Sounds good. In many FF-like games I never use potions or other consumables because there is no need for it. I might give this a try.

    Wow! Amazing, all this good stuff at a dollar is totally worth it! The game does remind me a bit of Penny Arcade 3.

    Great game so far, makes me wonder why it's so cheap with no iap at all.

    I changed my leader for the first time in 7 hours of play. I should have tried it earlier. There's tons of versatility in assigning specific leaders since the stats that are modified also change. If you put the mage as the leader, you get bonus spirit or MP depending or if you set the warrior, HP and strength.

    Anyone try a full charm party? Looks to become viable around midway through the game when you unlock the upper levels in the mage tower.

    Far better than any Kemco game I've played! :D Absolutely hilarious too! Magical toilets! Go get this game now if you haven't dropped the buck already!

    This game is totally awesome and it just gets better and better! I also like how they got a character named Mike ^.^ (my name btw). And even funnier is I usually like to play the healer in co-op games!
