    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Positives:
    - This game is glorious in all its attention to detail.
    - The fact that dialogue is fully voiced is amazing for a game like this.
    - The intricacies of the mirage board and stacking mechanics give the game depth.
    - I am actually motivated to play with the mechanics of combat and see what combos I can achieve rather than just spam attack like most games of this genre.
    - I feel rewarded for catching new mirages and leveling them up. It simplifies most of the game play of Pokemon but doesn't loose its fun.

    Negatives:
    - The character model animations are awkward and overdone. Look, I get that they are lampooning themselves by overacting the model animations but it still is a little too much in my opinion. Newcomers to Final Fantasy wont get the joke.
    - Tama. (I am not going to go on a rant even though i want to)
    - Linear map designs. Feels too constricting.    … Expand

    Un juego lleno de encanto, no descuida ninguno de sus aspectos de juego clásico, está lleno de belleza y harto contenido, me gustó mucho que se pueda capturar "mirages" que viene siendo cómo Pokemones, y tiene bastante personalización de personajes y Carisma, es un gusto jugar junto a estos personajes y sus compañeros.

No me sentía de tal manera, desde que jugué el Paper Mario, para nintendo 64, me hace sentir en plenitud, cubre todo de un buen JRPG. Los que dan negativo, de seguro son gente actual, que solo busca gráficos, yo mismo miré a mal este juego por los personajes pequeños, pero me animé a probarlo y me a encantado, es cómo volver a la niñez.… Expand

    If you can get over the fact that the presentation of the PC version isn't that much better than the PS4 version, you'll find World of Final Fantasy to be a very good RPG for all ages. It maintains a delicate balance between being simple enough to understand while also having the necessary depth for players who want it.

    Spin-off or not, and not going into long-winded arguments for and against, the game does some things better than some of the latest main series entries. The turn-based combat is not only welcome, but it’s implemented on a level that surpasses the nostalgic legacy of it. Also, the writing is worth of a praise. As one half of the twins myself (with a brother though, not a cute thing like Reynn!), I really appreciate the banter between Reynn and Lann. It’s so fun, acute and savvy! World of Final Fantasy might be a bit of a slow burner, as it takes some time to get familiar with it, but when it opens up, you’ll be lost in the beauty of it, hunting mirages and resolving the mystery of the twins and the world around them.

    World of Final Fantasy has some great gameplay design that honors the traditional turn-based role-playing game structure. The additional Pokemon elements of capturing and cultivating the mirages creates motivation to keep the ball rolling, even if you’re grinding out the gameplay a bit. The gameplay certainly isn’t perfect, as the younger audience that Tose and Square Enix are trying to reach rears its head in the gameplay structure once in awhile through the game's flow and simplicity, but World of Final Fantasy is diverse and deep enough to keep the excitement going from beginning to end. Just come prepared with a good GPU to push it on the PC.
