Crystal Defenders iPhone App Review
This review of Crystal Defenders is brought to you by AppVee.com.
Crystal Defenders is a Final Fantasy Tower defense game for the iPhone and iPod Touch. This game takes quite a bit from the Final Fantasy Tactics advanced 2 game for the Nintendo DS including the job classes and what seems like the entire soundtrack.
Crystal Defenders is no different from any other tower defense game we’ve had the chance to play except for the superficial differences. Instead of towers or other stationary objects, you’ll be placing characters from the Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced 2 game. These characters each have specific job and purpose depending on the type of money you have and which level of difficulty you’re playing. You can place nearly every job class in the original game into battle to help you defend those crystals. There are even power-ups that you can place down around your troops as well.
The presentation of this game is fairly disappointing. The game area is less than half the total size of the screen. On the left to the play area, you have all the monsters that will be attacking. On the right, you have all the available job classes you can pick from. While having that as a border is really nice it’s really there just to keep the size of the play area from being distorted.
The bottom half of the screen is a giant control pad. This is the most confusing part of the app considering that you can actually touch the screen to move your cursor around. The control pad makes this game look unpolished and unprofessional. As the tower defense game, Crystal Defenders is not too shabby. Thanks to the six different apps each with two difficulty levels. As a Final Fantasy game and a game made by a major player on the video game market it’s a pretty weak presentation. If you’re a fan of Final Fantasy and enjoyed the tower defense games definitely check out Crystal Defenders.
