Devolepers are vain. I don't need to know who made the thing everytime I log in. honestly, you guys should be embarassed for what you did to the original.
★★★★ Rakee Sith 3/5/2026 v1.2.1
Trash only play on wi fi not offline!
★★★★ Dylan L 2/9/2026 v1.2.3
never going to complete this. Google Play games has a notification read across the top of the screen every time i open it that it is saving progress. well it doesn't and it hasn't. terrible oversight considering something like ffbe i can retrieve easily. i had over 60 hours this time. i probably could've beat it at any point. this is terrible. i had the apple version and same thing. no proper software for automatically logging in and saving progress. manual upload is insufficient.
★★★★ Unknownxz 2/6/2026 v1.2.3
cool game but don't buy it on google
★★★★ Elusive Ghost 2/5/2026 v1.2.3
I have this problem where it says can't verify license needs to be online and the worse part is this game was out for the Gameboy and SNES and didn't need an online verification of license so why now of all times and all of the sudden basically you are paying money for product that ain't working
★★★★ Paul K 12/26/2025 v1.2.3
pause glitch
★★★★ Guilherme Tardin 12/9/2025 v1.2.3
The Android version is unplayable. At the beginning of the game, when you reach Figaro Castle, there is a bug that prevents the player from proceeding.
★★★★ Jimmy Little 11/6/2025 v1.2.3
love the game itself one of the best in the final fantasy series but every time I do the scene with celes singing in Maria's place it won't load up the second part so no point downloading it if u want to play it download it elsewhere plenty of other ways to play it
★★★★ Clayton Piner 11/1/2025
does not work. do not buy
★★★★ Amber Wagner 10/11/2025 v1.2.3
Doesn't want to open half the time, absolute garbage. so frustrating. way to ruin a game. the steal rate is trash even with all the accessories equipped to improve it. I'm so irritated with how horribly they made this. could have been fun, major fail.
★★★★ Donald Fabian 9/14/2025 v1.2.2
Constantly stop's and freezes at the opera song. What a waste of time and money for a game that doesn't work. you are better off playing this on super Nintendo at that time.
★★★★ Clayton Piner 8/31/2025
game is broken. do not buy
★★★★ Dee Rice 8/16/2025 v1.2.2
the app closes on its own constantly. and once I reached the opera house it would crash every single time and I can't go any farther
★★★★ Joshua Tyler 7/23/2025 v1.2.2
it won't let me play I downloaded it twice and it gets stuck on the open loading screen won't even let me watch opening credits note to self ff6 or ff7 work on cricket debut smart just to let y'all know and yes all the minimum requirements were met to play it
★★★★ Justin 7/20/2025 v1.2.2
Sometimes, it will not start if you're offline, even if you've previously logged in. It's not terrible, but I wish I had bought it on pc instead because of the lack of offline access. Especially for the price. Offline access is possible and intended, but buggy. Not condoning piracy, but ports like these are a large portion of the reason people would rather pirate older games than buy a remaster. TLDR; good game bad port. Had issues with it within the first two hours.
★★★★ Dave Solarz 7/1/2025 v1.2.2
Unplayable. Like the rest of their Pixel Remaster games, it freezes when loading the game. STAY AWAY FROM THE PIXEL REMASTERS. The 3d versions still work.
★★★★ Cuong Nguyen 6/29/2025 v1.2.2
it freeze to much!!!!!
★★★★ Levi Andrews 5/19/2025 v1.2.2
it is a good game however, if you answer a text or anything even from the notification bar it will restart your game. so if you get a phone call or text while playing.......... reeeeeestart. makes it unplayable, too much grind for the quick save not to even work.
★★★★ Joseph Jack 4/23/2025 v1.2.1
got a A16 5 G doesn't work on it just a black screen doesn't load
★★★★ Yuri Gagarin 4/5/2025 v1.1.2
constantly crashes. DO NOT BUY (note: this is my fav game of all time - avoid this version)
★★★★ Chris Dover 4/1/2025 v1.2.1
Game was fun while it was playable. Played for about an hour, now the game won't load. Will not load a new game or a save file. Tried uninstalling and re downloading, game is still unplayable. I would either like a fix where I can play the game or a refund, not sure how to contact support or the developers.
★★★★ Richard B 3/19/2025
trash
★★★★ Sukriye 2/28/2025 v1.1.2
THIS IS HORRIBLE!!! DELETE IT NOW
★★★★ Hayden Nelson 2/2/2025 v1.1.2
Closes app Everytime I leave somewhere
★★★★ Steven Freeland 1/27/2025 v1.1.2
Comtinues to keep crashing at the start of the game
★★★★ Patrick Coen 1/24/2025 v1.1.2
keeps on crashing
★★★★ Kurtis Cleland 1/23/2025 v1.1.2
Not the ultimate remaster, that is false advertising. No bonus content, waste of money, the original port had it , which is no longer available. Not worth it without the dragons den , gigantaur , gilgamesh, etc... the port they had before, was better.
★★★★ James Maurmeier 1/14/2025 v1.1.2
My biggest gripe is the graphics aren't as good as the GBA version. It's a bummer cause I'm too late to refund it or I would. The bugs are quite annoying too. You can do a low level run in this version much easier which was the challenge I wanted, but the changes to the graphics and interface robbed some of the game of value for me. I'd rather do a GBA emulator
★★★★ Eric C 1/11/2025 v1.1.2
Tried to play the game, even with touch controls, can't get through South Figaro without constant crashing. Playing on a pixel 9 pro fold.
★★★★ Richard B (AkaScythe) 11/22/2024 v1.1.2
The mechanics are so god-awful I can't even play the game
★★★★ Mandy Noble 11/10/2024 v1.1.2
This is the second time I've had to purchase this title due to a "remaster" and this time I lost my save files and they removed the extra content from the GBA re-release when Dragon's Den and Soul Shrine were added. Also, I really wish you could toggle between the original music and the remastered music.
★★★★ Mark Locaparra 11/3/2024 v1.1.2
I recently wrote a review here in which I described some game bugs. I played the game a lot more and the frequency of game bugs drove me crazy. It is very sad that I have to write this 1 star review. I loved Final Fantasy 6 when I played it many years ago. If you are like me and wanted to relive the experience of playing Final Fantasy 6, I would not buy this version of the game. The bugs in the game make it impossible to move forward and forces a player to go back to the last save.
★★★★ JAMES HOWLETT 8/27/2024
You need to improve the fonts I can hardly see
★★★★ Tim Zarathustra Hanes 8/17/2024 v1.1.1
I would rate this classic much higher, but in my game I got to the opera house part and it keeps freezing in the part where you have to choose the right dialogue for the song and I can't get past it. Has anyone else had this issue? And is there any way I can fix it?
★★★★ Anna 8/16/2024 v1.1.1
still no font options how many years after other platforms got it?
★★★★ Paul Janssen de Guzman 7/28/2024
Glitched as usual
★★★★★ James Harmon 12/12/2025 v1.2.3
game is mediocre. it didn't age well. the main issue is lack of guidance. it wastes time and not worth playing. play ff7-16 instead.
★★★★★ Louis-Philippe Blais 5/11/2025 v1.2.1
meh... The boost features are nice but no gba stuff nor auto saves. Feels like the matrix software game was better made.
★★★★★ Cliff Perez 1/26/2025 v1.1.2
Brought a game only for it to crash a lot, can't even play a full 30 minutes.
★★★★★ Roy R. 1/16/2025 v1.1.2
I want to love the game but I can't! The remaster looks awesome and the return to old-school FF6 is just what I wanted! The new features are awesome and make the game feel more modern while allowing it to feel like the original game. BUT I can't play for more than 5-10 minutes without it crashing! The crashes are normally when there is a screen transition but in places like Figaro Castle, you're transitioning between screens a dozen times just to get to the rooms you need to. Very frustrating!
★★★★★ Steve Collins 1/3/2025 v1.1.2
Random crashing on loading screens. Happens every few loading screens making the game nearly uplayable. Running on a Pixel 9 Pro
★★★★★ Jack Burton 7/15/2024 v1.1.1
Want to love it but the constant random crashes make it unplayable. Getting through the Opera scene is seemingly impossible for me.
