Ratings and reviews

The game introduced magic that they heavily make you use on the bosses. Some are near impossible without magic, and I love the game for that. That is what this game is all about...building on gameplay, story, and characters that were established in Ys 1. There are more complex puzzles and a variety of areas. I love trying to keep a mental map of the whole game...even though I get lost...alot. I do recommend a guide but it isn't necessary. Anyone interested in these games needs to play them.

This is a great classic RPG. However this port leaves a lot to be desired. The graphics has been updated from other versions so visually this game is very pretty. But it leaves a lot to be desired in the game controls which don't seem to be able to be adjusted or changed. Which makes it difficult to actually play the game and play it well and smoothly. So not a great port of this overall.

I very much like this game; however, when I got to level 22 in the game, the app stopped and the game no longer wants to proceed. When I hit the load or continue button, it brings me back to my phones' main screen. I have contacted DotEmu via email and they responded to me saying they will look into it. Still no word since the beginning of February of 2018...
