I didn’t expect this could happen, but Square finally released a mobile Final Fantasy game that is not a steaming pile of filth. [08/2015, p.78]
An unnecessary amount of initial complexity can’t stop Final Fantasy Record Keeper from being a solid mobile game that offers a fun, original adventure peppered with iconic elements from the series’ past.
Aside from that energy bar, Record Keeper is a Final Fantasy fan's dream mobile free-to-play game. The combat is simple, but well balanced and engaging, and the presentation and aesthetics are so authentic to the veteran series that it's impossible not to play and get a nostalgic rush.

I do not recommend picking this up since it's insanely addictive. Game servers (excluding Japan) are shutting down at the end of September 2022.

I would love this game so much more if I could be able to grind for Record Rubies, Mythril, 6* Motes, Job Class Motes, Soul Break Equipment, Memory Crystal Lode III, etc. Not to mention the missable Kingdom Hearts characters. I like to 100% my games, and this is not very possible here. Fun game. Still suffers from the same pay-to-win type aspect that so many mobile games fail to. Would of rather paid $20+ dollars and get a game I could max out my characters in.

Combining a respectful homage to its source material with a decent battle system and loads of unlockables, Final Fantasy: Record Keeper is the real deal in my book.

Final Fantasy Record Keeper proves that the free-to-play approach to a historical series like Final Fantasy can be made in a right way.

Right in the feels Bullseye!!!! If you are a true final fantasy fan this is a game for you ! Like me i enjoy every second playing with all these characters! But if you have never played an ff game i am not sure that you will stick with the game! For me a hard core FF player this game is 10/10 and i will score it 10 but if you are not i can say its not a game for you ! You may enjoy a day or two !

Even with its imperfections, Final Fantasy Record Keeper is a game you’ll gladly sink hours into as you fine-tune your party and play around with abilities and equipment.

Probably the best Final Fantasy game on mobile and a good example of how to play fair with both nostalgia and free-to-play microtransactions.

It’s not exactly the ultimate all-star gathering we might’ve hoped for, but Final Fantasy Record Keeper is a decent nostalgia trip.

Record Keeper isn’t offensive. It can sometimes be a little fun. But it’s not incredibly engaging.

This is undoubtedly one of the best F2P games I've ever played. The only F2P part here is the equipment and all. But the nostalgia and characters are completely unlockable without any payment AT ALL. Now this is what I really really like about FFRK. You don't have to pay for the nostalgia. And I have to say that I'm already very hooked, and not even half of the content is even released yet! I'm still waiting for the release of my favorite characters, from Shadow, Galuf and Bartz, to Gilgamesh and Lightning. But the wait is truly worth it, as well as this F2P game. I really recommend this game to many others, because FFRK isn't all about the nostalgia and all that. It's also about the party members, the combat, and your strategies for beating the tough FF bosses.

It is a great game for Final Fantasy fans. You get to hear classic music and see characters as if they were 16 bit sprites. The problem comes with getting new weapons and limit breaks. You need to spend Mythril to get anything decent and even if you spend 50 at once to get 11 weapons and/or armor, there is no guarantee that you will get anything 5 star. I still can't get any of the Level 2 Cap Break Crystals because I don't have any good weapons or Limit Breaks. If they fix it to where the weapon gains are much more balanced in your favor, I can easily call this a fun time killer. If not, it is still fun but you don't get the full enjoyment of seeing all the cool Limit Break attacks. If you are a fan of the Final Fantasy franchise, give it a look. I wouldn't spend any money on anything tho.

Not bad and not great. Super repetitive, desperately needs more content and things to do besides just dungeons over and over. Look at Gran Blue as an example of what a social rpg can be in terms of extra things to do. VERY heavy on the gacha and outrageous prices. The boss battles, nostalgia, music and ability animations are all really cool though.

If this game wasn't called Final Fantasy, nobody would be playing it. The progression system clearly tries to make you spend money. After spending 2 months saving resources and getting no 5 stars, you will desinstall this game and curse the developers. Even as a mobile game, it falls short. It tries to use nostalgia against you to make you spend money on characters relics that you want with ''greater chances'' of getting them (greater chances = 1 %).
