This game is a strategy with RPG elements of course (a must element on every Final Fantasy game), where player with his battle party must engage against group of enemies using all their basic and special ability such as magicks in a battle map.

There are differents unit type and each of them is having it's advantages and disadvantages. Example for Vaan who is a 'melee' type, he will take advantage on enemies with range type units, but weak againts air type unit.

Outside the battle, player can interract with other characters to get better know about the events recently happen, read logs, combine materials into equipments, or selecting the proper equipment for each character in order to be prepared for the next battle.

Sound, Final Fantasy XII - Revenant Wings NDS game is also reuse the musics and bgm's from the original Final Fantasy XII. It pretty good and still familiar in my ear though I played it on Playstation 2 more than 10 years ago :D .

Performance, the game is have pretty good speed on my Android smartphone. But the speed will drop when i activate the "3d high resolution rendering" setting.

Final Fantasy IV The 4 Heroes of Light originally released on Nintendo Dual Screen (DS) / NDS. But we can play on other platform like Android device or computer by using emulator application / software by dump the game into a .nds ROM file.

Gameplay, the general of Final Fantasy games. We walk on the world map or dungeon map, then after several randomly steps enemies will assault us. Then we will enter battle screen. Player must use all the potential attack and abilities such as magic as effective as possible

Inside city or village, player can rest inside Inn to recover HP. Buy more powerfull equipment and other usefull items on the shops. Oh and one that difference from other Final Fantasy game that each character can only bring limited number of item.

There is also numerous weapons and armors type. Every party member can freely choose their preffered weapons from sword, axe, harp, etc.

Performance, Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light is playable on my Android smartphone and it has decent speed. However the speed and fps is dropped when i activate the '3D high resolution rendering', but it can increase the graphic quality thought.

Sound, the music and bgm soundtack is enjoyable in my ears, as always like other Final Fantasy games.

The party is start only with the main character. But we will get more party member as the story progress.
