Massively enjoyable, tantalisingly addictive and packed with possibilities. [Aug 2008, p.73]

Whether you pay $15 for the game itself or more than $30 for the title and its expanded content, you'll find a surprisingly fun and refreshingly original experience that rivals full-priced retail software in depth and scope. Just make sure that you give it a chance past its slow first hour. I'm glad I did.

The scope of the game is enormous and there's never a lack of things to do as you live out each day of the adventure.

It’s as beautiful as it is deep, and will keep you glued to your television screen as the hours fly by.

The further you delve into the game's intricacies, the richer the experience. [July 2008, p.70]

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King packs a lot of depth into a small package just like Square-Enix intended it to.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King is better than the sum of its parts. When you look at everything separately nothing sticks out as particularly fantastic, but its charm and addictive quality go a long way towards making it a great game.

My Life as a King's depth is surprising for a downloadable title, and it suggests that this could have been slapped on a DVD and sold at retail price. But such as it is, downloadable is the way to go, and based on the evidence here, the Crystal Chronicles series has a bright future ahead of it.

It features very deep managerial gameplay, which it is easy to become entranced with. This title gives you so many options for gameplay that it is hard to resist the urge to level up your adventurers just one more time, or unlock a certain building before shutting it off.

Extremely original take on the familiar Final Fantasy format. Worth an expanded sequel. [Aug 2008, p.82]
