Relive the excitement of Final Fantasy Adventure―
a timeless classic remastered for a new generation.

■STORY
Enshrined atop Mt. Illusia, high above the lofty clouds, stands the Tree of Mana. Drawing its life energy from the boundless celestial aether, the sentinel grows in silence. Legend holds that he who lays his hands upon its trunk will be granted power eternal―a power the Dark Lord of Glaive now seeks to further fuel his bloody quest for domination.

Our unlikely hero is one of countless gladiators indentured to the Duchy of Glaive. Each day, he and his ill-fated companions are dragged from their cells and bade to fight exotic beasts for the amusement of the Dark Lord. If victorious, they are thrown back into the dungeons with just enough bread to tide them over until their next match. But a body can only take so much, and it is never long before the weary captives succumb to their cruel fates.

■SYSTEM
Adventures of Mana's battle system grants you the freedom to move about the playing field without restriction, allowing for thrilling combat in which you decide when to attack and how to evade.

・Controls
Player movement is achieved via a virtual joystick accessible anywhere on the screen. An auto-adjust feature has also been added so that even if your thumb strays from its original position, you will never lose control of the hero.

・Weapons
Weapons are divided into six unique categories, some with uses beyond merely dealing damage. Determining when and where to equip each kind will prove the key to success on your quest.

・Magic
From restoring lost HP or removing various ailments, to rendering foes incapacitated or dealing deadly blows, there are eight different spells for almost any occasion.

・Obstacles
Bloodthirsty enemies are not the only things standing in the way of completing your quest. You will need both tools and your wits to overcome the many challenges encountered in the world of Mana, ranging from locked doors to hidden rooms to traps growing progressively more complex as the game progresses.

Ratings and reviews

This is honestly one of the best games for mobile. Bluetooth controller works great with it too. Control is solid, it's satisfying to kill things, plenty of weapons, story is great. A rare win for Squeenix on mobile for sure. Usually I would have something to complain about when it comes to Squeenix, like huge borders on the screen, but they did a great job here.

Almost 1:1 remake of the original gameboy. It's is a lot easier since you are no longer constrained to four directions, and now the spells have some auto targeting, but apart from the 3d face-lift, this will strike you as the exact game you remember. Oh, that also means your npc partners and enemy mobs are just as stupid as they were before. Also, make sure to pack plenty of mattocks and keys, so you don't get stuck... thankfully, I remembered that from when I was a kid.

The game is great! I would give a 5 star, however, there is a bug at Davias boss that crashes it. I guess the animations are too much. Please fix or find a workaround for this. I already submitted a bug report. If you fix this and I can continue (without having to grind til I can 1 shot the boss...) then I'll give 5 stars! Until then I'm not playing. If never fixed, I'll demand a refund.
