This being a phone game is a damn shame although I hear good things about Apple Arcade. Looks pretty cool. I like the tilt-shift environments. Not loving the weebish characters though.

[Vits]

Well with Apple recent moves. It's not really a phone game anymore at least not exclusivily.

The biggest issue however is that for now is only for Apple and given how the gameplay is supposed to work. Is very likely that it will stay that way.

Can’t you play it on an Apple TV? They have controllers for it.

The story is about an amnesiac...... oh Good lord really? An rpg with another amnesia story? 😒😒😒

[Kados]

Same guy that made Lost Oddysey. Maybe he forgot that he already did that plot?

[AriesBear]

He loves his amnesia

[Inverno]

This looks like too much effort for a mobile game…

[franwex]

As long as I don’t have to subscribe to play it-I’m ok. This is an Apple exclusive, not Apple Arcade exclusive correct?

[Kados]

Unfortunately it is currently fully Arcade exclusive.

[terrorofdeath]

Nope, you'd have to subscribe to Apple Arcade. At least they give a month free

[TheRealTedCruz]

Not big on phone games, but this looks quality. That said, I'm an Android user, so ...

[KingofBandits]

its such a damn waste to have Sakaguchi making mobile phone games. Maybe hes happy with that but I really doubt it. Can't say he wasn't given a shot as MS had him for two big RPG's on 360 and Nintendo for 1 on Wii, all commercial failures just it was bad timing/platform, as I feel his games would have done extremely well on PS3 back then and this would do very well on Switch now
