Alliance Alive HD Remastered offers a well-written story, an exciting world to explore, and a cool 3D visual style. Unfortunately, the controls on the iOS port made it incredibly clunky to play!
I love RPGs, and Alliance Alive HD Rematestered has everything I'm looking for in the genre. Interesting characters, an exciting world, and many ways to build my characters. Even the cutesy 3D animation offered a funny and distinctive style.
Unfortunately, playing this title was a chore on my iOS! The D-pad requires swipes to move instead of a sticky board. That would have made it easier to fight and navigate the menu. Additionally, selecting skills was chaotic on my phone screen. The Ok/Cancel buttons were awkwardly placed and mashed next to each other, so I frequently hit cancel when I meant to hit ok.
This meant most of the time spent on Alliance Alive HD Remastered was fighting the controls instead of monsters. Don't get me wrong, the game itself is great, but if you're playing on an iPhone user, beware!
