Excellent old school game from the classic Squaresoft SNES era. Definitely worth the purchase. Let's hope we see Square-Enix put more of its Japanese exclusive games out there for the English speaking audience! This game was way ahead of its time and is probably the finest of the entire SaGa series.
Finally! Ported in English!
This was the first JRPG with non-linear storyline I've played. It also has a very different concept of money management, equipment acquirement, skill learning, and magic system like none other even to this day. If you are OK with a bit of retro graphic, you should try it. A bit of caveat is the survival control is pretty bad, but I am willing to tolerate it for all the unique qualities of the game.
A great RPG finally comes overseas.
Romancing saga 2 is a great game with so many ways to play it. It's battle system is amazing, the story is simple, yet smart, and the localization is great. I only wish that romancing saga 1 and 3 and maybe even imperial saga would release in America...
Can’t turn off music
Cannot turn of the annoying music and the controls are wonky
Romancing saga2
I want to play this game in Japanese, but the it is not possible to select the language which users want to. Can you fix it to select the language?
Finally!
I haven't even played it yet, but five stars for finally giving this gem an English release after 23 years.
Fantastic Rpg. Polished, and finally Localized!
The SaGa games were always Squaresoft's secret gems that never got mainstream attention, which is actually a good thing. Because this way you know for sure they wont get ruin, like this entry!
Great, needs tweaking
I try to switch skills with the arrow keys and select a command instead. Game mechanics are unclear. Is there a digital copy of the game manual?
Awesome Game
I love the graphics. Also, I'm stuck on the Canal Fortress mission. How do you clear the monsters from the gates?😅😅
Unbelievable
Seriously my mind is blown that we got a release like this and on the mobile too.
Now please hear me out release saga frontier 2 on mobile PLEASE!! I would like to know the fate of Gustave and Johan..
Hreat game but...
Anyone else not getting any sound?
Amazing
Can't believe it's finally here! Can't wait for Romancing Saga 3, which is even more amazing!! Please bring it to iOS!!!!
Another great square enix port!
I'm glad to see yet another square jewel come to the US. Now if we could just see Seiken Densetsu 3 on iOS. For those that don't know that's secret of mana 2. Hope they bring it.
BEST JRPG OF THE YEAR.
One of the greatest JRPG's of all time available for the first time in English!
Buy it now, thank me later.
Wow really great
Hadn't played this one before, but it has pretty great depth! I'd love to see a Saga Frontier port as well!
5star but struggling with movement
I just started the game it brought a lot of nostalgia of the old days but my problem is the movement is somewhat inaccurate I struggle in dungeons can't keep a straight pattern I think needs to be be re-adjusted with bigger icon
Great retro RPG
This is definitely a game for those that are super into the genre. The menus and user interface can be a bit obtuse, but it's got great gameplay still. Please, Square, bring 1 and 3 to iOS!
Great game. Glad it's available on iOS
Great game. Glad they move this onto iOS. Hope they bring rs3 to iOS as well.
More SaGa
So grateful to Square for bringing back the games of my childhood
so much fun, well worth the purchase.
CANNOT WAIT FOR SAGA FRONTIER
2 Negative User Reviews for Romancing Saga 2
Boring
The system is a little confusing because nothing is ever explained to you. What are skill points? How do you get more life points? Skills are learned randomly. Why does a person with 15 def get 1-shot while a person with 13 def takes 1/4 the damage?
But the cardinal sin is that the game has a boring and disjointed story. It reminds me of Chinese movies that recount some popular or historical tale, and you're expected to already know what happens so they can jump around and just hit the highlig
No controller support
Seriously? This was a console game, it sorely needs controller support. It can’t be that hard to add in, small independent developers do it all the time. Come on Square-Enix!
