Metro: "The legendary creator of Final Fantasy and The Last Story turns his attentions to the iPhone, with a mobile game that celebrates his love of surfing."
gamrReview: "Party Wave does for surfing what the Tony Hawk games did for skateboarding. In lieu of capturing the realism of the sport, it instead captures the ideals, the feeling, the spirit. That’s what Party Wave does perfectly."
Games like Party Wave are exactly what makes mobile gaming so special. Out in the real world of publisher dominated, market-driven console games, Hironobu Sakaguchi is shackled to the genre that made his name, turning out one big budget RPG after another, until he either goes out of business, retires, dies or goes out of business, retires and dies.
STP: What's this? A new iPhone game being released by Mistwalker Corporation and Hironobu Sakaguchi, the creator of such titles as Final Fantasy and The Last Story? Surely it must be some sort of epic quest, full of danger and dragons, sorcery and swordplay, right?"
