absolutely well done game and story! once I started it I found it difficult to put down, the graphics are smooth and easy on the eyes! the fights are gripping tough bosses you can't auto attack through you need to strategize and the farming is easy and worth it! sometimes the simple controls get in the way between moving quickly and trying to open chests but that's hardly a game buster! 5 out of 5 would recommend

This is overall a decent port of a classic game. However, the touch control ranges from annoying, making routine actions like opening a chest far more fiddly than they need to be, to more or less game breaking where very precise movement is necessary. The notorious "walk around Speiko's room three times" challenge is nearly impossible now. Other Square Enix ports have done much better with this, finding work arounds like touch mode movement, so there's really no excuse for this.

Definitely my favorite game of all time. The controls take some getting used to, you can't mute the music/sounds, and you can't customize the background colors like you can in the SNES version, but it does have the updated additional content from the DS version (no spoilers from me, if you know, you know!) Update: after the most recent update, I cannot progress past the first Lavos encounter, the game auto closes. You can now mute the music, but only through gaming hub, not the game itself.
