★★★★ Christopher Chadwick 6/12/2026 v2.1.5
game won't launch
★★★★ Charles Richer 5/31/2026 v2.1.5
there's random crashes playing constanrly in a certain duration of time in any battery percentage. The bookmarks of resuming doesn’t bring you back to the farthest save. The only thing you can do is manually save it but there sometimes long areas where yiy can't save it. A game like this should be free until these bugs are fixed it's like you are forced to play part of the game with forcibly stopping like a demo.
★★★★ M C 5/20/2026 v2.1.5
this is not turn based. misleading. I cant play this in situations where my attention can be called away often
★★★★ Juan Alberto Armendáriz Gómez 5/9/2026 v2.1.5

★★★★ Yang Yang 4/30/2026 v2.1.5

★★★★ Austin Richard 3/31/2026 v2.1.5
Would like to turn off the vasoline filter on the game and the zoomed nature back to its 4:3 aspect ratio.
★★★★ Alex Vacio 3/23/2026 v2.1.5

★★★★ No One 2/7/2026 v2.1.5
the cursor memory for battling does not work in this app the actual Chrono trigger game had a function where if you placed cursor memory to the right setting it would remember every previous action you had made but by default if you Auto Battle or if you set your cursor memory correctly every attack is a basic default attack I want my money back
★★★★ Brad Gibbs (Brad Hibbs) 12/18/2025
Cannot play this game. Square Enix when it was Squaresoft made it too difficult to play back then and still is now.
★★★★ Brandon Godsey 12/10/2025 v2.1.4
no longer launches as of 12/25. tried everything
★★★★ Jason Edgar 11/30/2025

★★★★ Theo Tonkla 11/6/2025 v2.0.4
Do you have Thai Language? I hate Auto Games!!
★★★★ Agam Syahputra 11/3/2025 v2.1.4
SQUARE ENIX has historically never designed their port games' UI competently. Absolutely and utterly trash to look at. I don't know if they outsource the developers on this one, but they really need to up their game.
★★★★ Aaron Meade 10/13/2025 v2.1.1
this game not just take your money if your phone start getting hot for no reason your information is being stolen recommend not to buy this game if you want your phone to be ruined it's a game trap and good luck you will not get your refund
★★★★ Matthew Geiger 10/7/2025
This is one of my favorite games of all time, and I was excited to see it available here. However, the game is unplayable. If the title screen actually decides to load, it just brings me to a black screen and stays there after starting a new game. It looks like this app hasn't been updated in a couple years, and could probably use a patch or two. Disappointed.
★★★★ Raphael Landry 10/2/2025 v2.1.3
i want a refund 😭
★★★★ Liam Adair 9/27/2025 v2.1.3
Unplayable. I get a black screen every time I try and load the game.
★★★★★ Store Malt 5/31/2026 v2.1.5
i cant seem to play its crashing!
★★★★★ Just A person 1/24/2026
I'm extremely frustrated that there's been a bug with using controllers for this game for over 8 months and nothing has been done to fix it. I've tried multiple controllers and different types from 8-BitDo to PlayStation 5 to Xbox and no matter what you use you'll just randomly start running either right or left and not stop until it decides it wants to. You can't really fight it either, the game will overpower the controller. In addition to that using a PS5 the D-Pad is glitchy at best.
★★★★★ TJ Mackey 10/27/2025 v2.1.3
Game will not load on my Pixel 9XL. Goes to new game screen and freezes after I select either active or wait.
