FINAL FANTASY V Reviews
We love this game so much but it would be so much better if it had controller support!
We’ve loved the franchise for ages and Id love to see controller support for these games.
Great game but we would love controller support.
Can we add this please as this game deserves it!
We just wish the red mage didnt take forever (console version shortens this with ability points multiplier not updated here) to master for dualcast (999 ABP mastery) unless you use magic pots in the phoenix tower for 100 ABP. That boost options helps ff5 and ff6 (keeps old music too) to speed up ability/stat gains, rendering these mobile versions obsolete (and ff2 for turning off brutal random encounters). To sum up otherwise, we did enjoy the characters with their upbeat yet serious moments. The game does kinda force jobs (end game makes you use freelancer/mime for masteries/stats) and research (chemist mix phoenix down with a potion is amazing but no kept recipes option). Being able to steal useful genji gear from Gilgamesh in each encounter was a huge improvement over FF3s thieves that generally got potions. The mystic knight using spellblade will not work with katanas (no silver samurai here) and youre gambling to accidentally heal bosses with the wrong element until you get petrify or flare end game.
We bought the game under the premise that there was some sort of a boost menu with adjustable Exp. ABP. Gil. We have not found anything about a boost menu. Kinda want our money back over this.
We love these games but SE hates us. Add controller support for the love of god.
Great game, no issues on our phone. But we wish it had controller support.
Seriously, we dont understand. The pc versions have controller support. It cant be hard to implement this feature and literally everyone wants it.
When we played this on our Iphone we saved our data to the cloud & when we redownload the game on our Ipad the save data in the cloud can’t be seen Please fix this Square Enix. Thank you.
This is the same game it was before just with less content. A few pixels and backgrounds is not grounds for a new release. Its a money grab plain and simple. The worst is that those of us who had previous purchased the Final Fantasy 6+1 bundle in the App Store cant even access those games through the App Store any longer. Customer service is a joke as they punted back to Apple Support when this issue was brought up. We love the game but stop renaming the title, doing minor tweaks, and asking us to buy the game again.
We will update and post a full review once controller support is added.
This version um is one of the best looking of those currently available. It is also by far the worst programmed. Numerous things that never have been issues suddenly are. Whoever SE paid to do this was not up to the task. Go play one of the other versions, if you have the ability to do so.
Beautiful game, they even updated the songs, but it shuts off at random.
Literally just update the game and add in Mifi controller support. Plenty of the other mobile releases done by square has had full Mifi controller support. It should only take a developer maybe an hour to make this patch. Will update rating once done.
1 star for failing to have ALL of the content that is available in the GBA version. There is no excuse for this.
Surprisingly great, polished-looking return to the original. It feels like it keeps everything good about the SNES version and makes it better. As of April 2022, we only encouraged a handful of minor bugs, like insta-escaping certain battles when we were supposed to attack, or a few oddly long delays for an action to execute.
Please add controller support love final fantasy classics, easier to play with a controller.
We did enjoy the characters with their upbeat yet serious moments. The game does kinda force jobs (end game makes you use freelancer/mime for masteries/stats) and research (chemist mix phoenix down with a potion is amazing but no kept recipes option). Being able to steal useful genji gear from Gilgamesh in each encounter was a huge improvement over FF3s thieves that generally got potions. We just wish the red mage didnt take forever to master for dualcast (999 ABP mastery) unless you use magic pots in the phoenix tower for 100 ABP. Alternatively, the mystic knight cant equip knight swords that are better, and its spellblade doesnt work with katanas from the samurai class, so its limited, let alone spellblade is risky outside a status anomaly like break which can work on a part of the final boss, should the enemy absorb and you waste 2 turns as you burn one charging the sword. Regardless, it is fun to combine jobs though some are better than others (ninjas dual wield is better than knights active two-handed as it is passive while having two weapon effects and you dont waste an ability slot). Learning proper combinations is essential, and this game also introduces optional super bosses which is great for its time though theyre very difficult without preparation. Blue magic was a nice introduction though you will need a beastmaster to control enemies to hit you with buffs to learn those enemy skills. We are glad the berserker bug in the original was fixed so that it isnt painfully slow to use (ATB starts normal instead of empty).
Aside from lack of bonus content added from the GBA release, this is the best version of FFV. Highly recommend due to its addictive gameplay and excellent story!
The game looks and plays beautifully. This is one of the best games in the series, and it is a great game to play on mobile. The job system makes it a fun game to grind out levels in our spare time. But there are a few issues that need to be addressed with this version. – The game crashes frequently when multitasking (checking emails, taking a call, looking up a guide, etc.) – The game timer continues when the app is running in the background. – Missing content from previous versions. No super boss and bonus dungeon. Even with these issues, this is arguably the best version of this game to date and easily worth the price. Hopefully the complaints above will be addressed in a future patch.
We wanted to play the game with our Rotor Riot controller, but its incompatible with this game. Touch screen works perfectly fine, but we dont like smearing our screen with fingerprints while feeling our phone overheating in our hands due to long periods of gameplay.
The game is beautiful, and the music is awesome! It freezes a lot so you gotta quick save and regular save all the time, especially if youre someone who likes grinding. Also, nobody wants to accept responsibility for the freezing problem that apparently is common. Square-Enix says its Apple who can fix the freezing issue, and Apple recommends the same steps as Square. Its obviously a problem with coding somewhere, but that would require extra effort that nobody wants to do we guess. We were going to go with 4 stars, but then found out the issues they have will actually not be fixed at all. So, great game, if you dont mind it freezing all the time.
The final battle in the game is bugged and prevents you from being able to cast any sort of magic on the party. Its incredibly frustrating to try and fight a final battle when most of the jobs you grinded for are useless because they cant cast magic. Please fix.
This game is a pain to navigate with the touch screen. Especially because of how hidden pathways and such work. There is no substitute for a controller with a directional pad for this game. We cant believe it was released without.
Please add controller support. Cannot believe that we bought this not knowing that there is no support. Please add. Definitely not buying any more until controller support is added. Should be standard by now. Add support for more stars.
If youre already familiar then you know the class system in FF5 is one of the best out there, next to FFTactics. Love the game! After fixing the black chocobo bug we walked right up to it and caught it first try. Great job on addressing issues!
Touch-screen controls, music, graphics, all incredible. This is the perfect balance of original feel with modern features. Both tap to move and the on screen directional pad are great.
Needs backbone controller support guys cmon.
Our favorite final fantasy that wasnt originally released in the US. If we complete the game without issue will up to 5 stars. For those of you having problems catching the black chocobo, switch movement from the cross pad to tap and you will get him easy.
Black Chocobo bug is fixed! The font is still atrocious and should be updated with retro styling. The game is gorgeous but the font really kills the cohesiveness of the visual style!
Final Fantasy V is a very fun game that we enjoy very much, between the job system and the amazing story and locations it truly is one of the best final fantasies we’ve played. That said, the pixel remastered has two majorly problems that made us detract two stars from it. First is the reduction of content, its rather disappointing that none of the added content past the original release like the necromancer job and added super bosses are in the game, which is saddening to us, this seems to have been marketed as a sorta ultimate edition or final mix and yet it doesnt give everything other versions offer, but this might just be us. Second, and the larger problem, while it worked fine for a while, now we cant play without random crashes, which have become really annoying and more frequent, its really annoying and disappointing since we cant continue or enjoy the game past this point now. If this bug is fixed and the extra content is added Ill give five stars, Ill give four just for the bug to be fixed.
We love this game and Im having a lot of fun playing it. This game is good in a mobile format and is worth the money. Negative one star for no controller support. Negative another star for not including the Sunken Temple despite apparently basing this port off the Gameboy Advance (GBA) that does have that great content. We have not experienced any bugs. We can answer calls, send texts, and switch to browse the Internet while playing the game. If we minimize the game for less than 5 minutes there are no issues continuing.
We really do hate to give a 1-star review for a single missing feature, but the lack of controller support is a huge problem and fundamentally alters how you play the game. If you add controller support, we will gladly re-review.
This is a complete rip off. No controller support.
Self explanatory. Once anyone or the whole party decides to do dualcast and do auto battle. The entire battle freezes and cant progress without force quitting app.
Near perfect remaster. Unlike other pixel remasters like FF3 where the bonus content from later games didnt add much in FF5s case it added 4 additional jobs and a slew of new superbosses. Without the Sealed Temple in this version it is not the best FF5 version available which is the GBA version. Though the remastered music and sound is top notch we would pay extra if the Sealed Temple bonus content was added to this version.
The new remaster is faithful to the original, and the new rearranged BGM is well worth the price. The problem is there are many bugs in the current states of the game, some can be game breaking. Examples 1. Submarine can accidentally dive onto the undersea land block, which will requires you reload the game, so save before you dive. 2. Boss Necrophobe doesnt show up last floor in many players game, currently cause unknown. We hope those will be fix soon without needing to reload early save, we really hate to abandon so much progress.
First off ffv is one of the best in the series and there are a lot of nice things about this version. Two big issues however. 1. As others have mentioned, on mobile its nearly impossible to catch fast moving npcs, namely the black chocobo and Mid in Crescent Village in the merged world. 2. Though it was accessible for a while, the Phantom Village has now completely stopped showing up for us no matter how long we walk around the forest where its supposed to be. We’ve gotten 50 random encounters and no Phantom Village. Please fix asap.
Acceptable remake. Just baffled by why square would pull controller support when the steam and previous version have it.
Only game on the App Store where you can lose hours of progress because you accidentally clicked on a text message that popped up over gameplay. Complete trash that it doesnt run in the background and immediately closes. Thanks for the garbage yet again Square, you really do know how to ruin everything.
We love these pixel remasters. The only issue we are having is multitasking. If you minimize these games to check email, you come back to the game and it has restarted. Annoying bug. Also, we really just want to play these on ps4 and switch. And one more thing, to the review complaining about the sound, you probably have your phone in silent mode. Disable that.
We’ve never played the classic Final Fantasy series as this would be our first time playing Final Fantasy V. As much as Im very excited to start playing, we know this game will be much more enjoyable to play with a controller. Other than that, the game runs smooth, superb soundtrack just as expected from Nobuo Uematsu himself, but the controls would be much better when playing with a controller.
This game is great but needs controller support.
Good remaster, needs controller support ASAP.
Great job but needs controller support!
