FINAL FANTASY VI for Android
It's the most captivating RPG this side of the Witcher 3. It's deep as can be. It's beautiful. It's exhilarating. It's maddening at times. It's surprisingly touching. It's heartbreaking. The story is perfect and inimitable, and the music, my God, the music. No, it won't be wonderfully pixelated like on the original, but you can always emulate the original or buy a snes on ebay. FF6 (or as I once knew it, FF3) is one of the all time greats, here's the chance to always have it in your pocket.
I love the story so far, and I haven't even finished it. This is my first final fantasy game, and it's awesome. It's difficult, and bosses can come down to luck if you're not a high enough level. By the way, for those of you who are playing offline, connect to mobile network, go onto the game, start playing and then turn off the mobile network. It works for me, so hopefully it works for you.
Directional input adds so much frustration that it makes the game almost unenjoyable. Its constantly moving with my thumb, and you cannot set it to a fixed position like you can with ff dimensions. Also, on startup, it usually tells me an error has occured and closes before I even get to the title screen. If not for that constant frustration, id give it 5 stars.
I can see why people might complain about the D-Pad, it can be annoying. But it brings back so many memories from playing on the SNES. Do not let other peoples complaints ruin this amazing experience for you. One of the best Final Fantasy game in the series, and is worth the money. Lots of content, enemies, amazing characters, unlockables, achievements and a great story to tie it all together.
I've played all the previous ones, and this one was definitely the least satisfying. For one, it was too easy. I also thought the graphics and game play were worse for a more recent iteration. With that being said, still kept me entertained for hours.
Looks great and runs good but there is no way to save the game data on the external sd. This is bad because I can't have II III IV and this at the same time
Must Buy. Even if you are New to the series this is a very good start point. I loved it trough and trough since i played the Snes version until today. Personally i'm a fan of the Final Fantasy Franchise and this specific title made me fell in love with it since the early days of the SNES, back when FFVI was FFIII. I simply have no words to descrive my feelings towards this game, it looks exactly as you expect it to look on mobile but that doesn't change the story and gameplay, i love it god dammit! But yeah... wait until it's on sale :s
The game is good period, im running on galaxy tab 4. But i had to download this a second time to fix the "error" when starting up the game. Still this game is amazing but that crash bug scared the hell off me, superb game and port (for a phone/tablet game)
I have loved this game ever since it was on SNES. Still one of my favorite final fantasies. The controls for Character movement is kinda awkward and the dialog and the names for some of the abilities has Changed, but that's only a minor flaw. Game is very addictive and playable. I enjoy the polished up character graphics
The reason that I bought this game was to play it offline. I spend my time traveling for business trips, and I thought this game is an opportunity to spend my time playing it 'offline'. If I knew that the DRM would ruin this game I would not had bought it. I request a refund since it is useless to me with DRM in it...
Brilliant game, never played the original but the story and play is really good. That being said, you do need an internet connection to even start it so I would advise (as others have) against this if you had planned on doing this whilst travelling without frustration!
After finishing the game! I still can't believe this game stole my heart since the beginning of the game. The touch game play is not that hard, you can switch battle menu screen in 3 choices. Picking your magic moves and choosing your enemies is not that hard. The music so is nostalgic, that there is a music playlist to listen all the game music. This game is worth buyin, if you can't decide which Final Fantasy game to start, this one is worth checking out!
I played this when it first came out and probably twenty times after in various forms and platforms.. I have had a hankering to replay it for over a year now but I am so glad I waited for this version !! It looks better than it did years ago emulated with 2xsai 2xeagle graphics filters, the controls are swift and comfortable, you can even move diagonally!! The translation is pretty good other than a couple changes I mildly disapprove of (but can live with) like "son of a submariner"-->"son of a sandworm".
FFVI easily ranks high on my list of my favorite games of all time. I don't know how many times I've played through it in the past, but it definitely a game I can play over and over so I had to buy this. My first impressions of this port are extremely positive. The graphics look great and I love that you can play it entirely and comfortably with one hand. Easily one of the better Final Fantasy games. I couldn't recommend this more.
My favorite game of all time! Used to have to rely on emulators to play on the go, but this new version is fantastic so far. No issues whatsoever, I'm loving everything about it. Clouds saves are great. Kind of bothered by the need for a connection to play, how can I kill time in the woods if the game won't initiate? (2013 Moto X, Fire Phone CM11)
Hi I played through this Android version the first day it was released and now I am noticing the latest version which I recently installed only to discover a different Dpad than what i used last time. I also noticed the option under config to select keypad 1 or keypad 2. Mine is the same with either selection. Anybody help to return to original DPad?
My favorite game for SNES. Many improvements in this iOS version are appreciated! The D-pad is based on where you touch the screen, which makes tonnes of sense, because at different points in the game you want to move the D-pad so you can see surroundings. Dragons den is fantastic add-on. Love quick save option. Some of the updated translations are better, some worse. I wish combat controls were clearer, I select the wrong monster all the time. Never crashes, runs smooth on HTC One M8. Buy this!
Why does it check the Internet once a day? It crashes if you don't have access. Once it checks, you can use it offline but eventually it wants to phone home again. And then you're screwed if you don't have data.
I just finished ff4 and ff5 on android and both were good. Ff6, the on screen controller is much more clumsy feeling than 4 or 5. My other major complaint is that it crashes when you try to open it while offline.
Would definitely give 5stars if screen didn't go black when u enter battle commands. PLEASE fix this dev!!!!!!! I absolutely love this game but that makes me sad when I can't even watch the battle and the cool effects. I think a lot of fan reminisce in that ya know?
Loved this game when it first came out. UI is pretty easy to pick up. Biggest complaint/deal breaker is that it crashes when I have limited or intermittent network connectivity (like on the subway). Really frustrating when you go to load a game that costs this much and you can't play because it requires a network connection to launch.
Man, I love this game, but I can't play it. After a few minutes of playing, I get a message saying that Google Play is experiencing unknown issues. Then directly after the next battle is over, the game crashes. I'll sometimes make it Mt. Koltz but only because quick save automatically marks my progress at each new area. I've never gotten past Vargas without a crash. All my other apps work fine.
I really hate that the game will not load while offline. I have to load the game at home and keep it minimized if I want to play while I am out and about. Why is this? So I can get useless experience on my Google play account? Please fix this... I know you won't though
I purchased this game thinking I would be playing one of my all-time favorite Final Fantasy games. Everything is here , including some revamped graphics. However; the game suffers from very poor controls. I've tried the 4 way and the 8-way controls. Each lags severely. Also at key points in the game , it can disrupt gameplay. 1 key place is the opera scene. I hate that my experience with this awesome game has been tarnished simply by game controls. And, I honestly wish there was a way to get my money back.
- Crashes each time it is opened and so all my progress is technically lost. + So far though, it had a great plot and was definitely enjoyable... hopefully this issue is resolved so that I can continue to play. Otherwise, I would have given this game five stars.
The quick save feature just cost me hours of play time. If your party falls, don't let it load the data itself because it'll load the last file saved at a save point and delete your quick save... :(
Looks great and runs good but there is no way to save the game data on the external sd. This is bad because I can't have II III IV and this at the same time
As soon as I enter game, I get a message that reads "Unknown issue, from Google play". This stops me from being able to access cloud & upload save from my newer phone. This phone stays home & ONLY works through wifi. Everything is up to date.
What can I say? I've been a fan of the series for nearly 20 years. I've seen the best and worst. Final Fantasy VI ranks up with the best. Deep story, a lot of character choices and battle strategies. Worth the purchase and worthy of its legendary status. A must buy for any fan of this series! Please remake this for the 3DS like Final Fantasy IV!
By my favorite game storyline and plot. Great job with the redefined graphics in the port. Only thing i wasn't fond of is the d pad. A few areas like esper cavern and triangle island were trick but other then that. Worth re purchasing this game.
The on-screen D-Pad is just horrible and its pointless to try and play while I'm out and about. Good thing it has bluetooth controller support or I would have wasted my money.
Great port of a classic, but the controls suck big time. All these others saying you can't play without a internet connection are wrong. It won't connect to Google Play Services, but the game loads and plays just fine.
Hands down my favorite video game of all time. And the port couldn't make me happier. If FFIII for SNES was your jam, then look no further. Worth every penny for the amazing nostalgia and entertainment value this game provides.
Since entering Kefka's Tower towards the end of the game, I've noticed that the game constantly hangs right after the Demon boss battle. When the battle is over, the statue disappears then the game crashes. Anyone else experienced this?
I was a long time fan of ff7, and always scoffed at those who said this game was better. Well, I stand corrected. This game changed how I perceive reality; it really is that excellent. The movement can be a bit squirrelly at times but the game is so sexy that it is easily overlooked. Buy it.
Not very far into the game yet but it doesn't take long to notice how bad the controls are. I have been playing FFV and the controls are amazing. Then to come to this its a real shock. Besides the controls it looks great. Fix the controls and I'd give 5 stars.
My phone is connected to the Internet, I'm logged into Google+, and I'm still getting the message that the app is failing to connect to the cloud. There is no "G+" icon on the title screen, contrary to what the help screen says. If the cloud-save feature is fixed, I would give 5 stars.
I'm confused about why people say this is the bast game on the series. The characters don't have detailed stories, replayed music for towns, the bosses are easy, etc. I enjoy it because I like rpg but it's definitely not the best final fantasy. I still like ff9 and ff10 better. I'm rating the game but honestly on the Android two stars because the control pad is hard to get use to. I had to do the opera scene several times because of it and it's so hard to talk to NPC because of it.
Got this on a sale and was bugged by a horrible control lag. The lag is gone now, we'll, almost. So here's 5 stars ✨ time to relive my most cherished rpg memory

I don't care for the UI in this port, nor the graphics changes they gave the characters. However, I did enjoy the featured SquareEnix used in Bravely Default, that lets you fast forward through battles and character use the last ability used so you can grind faster, as this game can take a lot of grinding. Fantastic game, but the port is poor. Just get an emulator on your phone instead. It's free and much better. If this supported a Bluetooth controller then I'd probably like it more.
