Editors’ Notes

Originally released in 2000, Final Fantasy IX set a new standard for the series—and it’s still astoundingly impressive. It’s a perfect blend of beloved RPG elements from previous entries and modernized battle encounters. As you make your way through the story’s twists and turns, you’ll encounter unforgettable characters, frighteningly powerful enemies, and a wonderful fantasy world to explore.

No Longer Works… Best Final Fantasy Game And Port!

EDIT: After updating to iOS 14.5 and then 14.6, this app no longer boots up. A pop up comes up that says the developer needs to update the app to make it work on this iOS version. We’re still waiting for the update after months. I was like 60 hours into the game and now haven’t been able to continue for a long time. Please update the app before you release any more classics.

——————————-

This is my first and favorite Final Fantasy, but I love it on iOS not just for those reasons. This has been reworked for a touchscreen, graphics have been improved, Quicksave has been added, and extras have been included. This is the best version of this game and worth every penny. I'm on an iPhone 6 iOS 9.3.2 and have had NO CRASHES or problems at all. The audio, controls, and menus work flawlessly for me. I imagine many of the crashing issues might be older devices with less RAM trying to run this. But if you've got an iPhone 6 or newer, you'll be fine.

One big issue (easy to fix)

UPDATE: No longer works with new version of iOS. Can’t help rating until its fixed.

This game is just as good as I remember however the ease of use button mashing on the console does not translate well to the touch screen for people without bony fingers making it difficult to select players, attacks, talk options and so on. I'm fine with most of these as its something I can work around however there is one issue that is really stoping me from giving this amazing game 5 stars. There needs to be a way to set the auto attack command to something other than just the generic attack such as there is in the iOS version of FFIV. Having this option would make the endless battles we are in a lot less tedious giving the player more time to just have fun. Auto-attack makes battle nice unless one of your auto attackers is a Mage who hits for 20 points of damage and triggers a 200 point damage counter attack, if we could set his auto-command to say defend if we're trying to conserve MP or fire if we're trying to destroy an enemy that would be an outstanding improvement. Please add this option, I really love this game and this option would be the cherry on the cake.
