Description

Square Enixs fresh-faced hit The New York Times called one of the best role playing games ever designed for anything has busted onto iOS in a big way, with a slick and addictive new combat system, eye-popping HD art, and (of course) plenty of zetta awesome reasons for longtime fans to double dip.

Arm yourself with psychic superpowers and battle your way through a 7-day gauntlet of action: the Reapers Game.


THE SETUP
-------------------------------------------------
Welcome to Shibuya, a mishmash of attitudes and styles in the heart of Tokyo.

A boy named Neku wakes up in a crowded intersection, alone and unaware of how he got there. Then, he receives a weird text: Clear this mission...or face erasure. With that, Neku is thrust into a life-or-death Game that sends him scrambling down streets paved with one riddle after another...

What is the Reapers Game? Why is Neku a Player, and what is he playing for? Will the Game really end if he survives all 7 days? Another mystery is always around the corner.


THE PAYOFF
-------------------------------------------------
Intuitive, addictive combat with a twist
Activate your combat abilities, or psychs, with simple touch commands like tapping, slashing, and dragging. Comfy with that? Control Neku and his Game partner on the same screen and take the combat up a notch. Like loot? Boost your item drops in battle with the revamped Fusion system.

Deep replay value
Finish the main story to unlock a hilarious bonus chapter, more quests and items to find, new combat challenges, and secret reports that flesh out the story even more.

Explore a living, breathing city
Nekus sprawling world is based on the real-life Shibuya in Tokyo. Visit real locations and absorb some real Japanese culture through a hip fantasy lens.

Wireless arcade action with friends
Use the pins you equip in the main story to play Tin Pin Slammer! Take on other players with iPhones or iPads and copies of The World Ends with You, and be the first to knock your opponents pins off the table!

Redrawn art and Retina display support
Enjoy the game in full HD on your Retina-enabled iPhone 4 or later device. Art and animation across the game has been redrawn just for this release, making combat a beautiful experience. This is how all 2D classics should look.

The ultimate soundtrack: 60 songs
Composer Takeharu Ishimotos complete, sonically sublime soundtrack is included right in the game with high-quality audio and full vocals, including remixes and new songs.

Tweetify Shibuya
The world doesnt end with Shibuya. Tap into the Internet and populate the minds of in-game streetgoers with tweets of your choice.

Wirelessly trade Friend Cards
Exchange profiles with other players, and their avatars will appear in the streets of Shibuya! If your friends have Twitter accounts, their avatar will think their latest tweet! Not only that, you receive free items for every trade!

Customer Reviews

One of the best games ever created (5 stars)
This is my second favorite game of all time (the first is The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time). This game is a port of the Nintendo DS version (the only game I've ever bought more than one copy of), with some new features added since it was originally released five years ago. The story, art, and music (oh, the music!) are all some of the best in the entire video game industry, and it's simply a crime to miss out on this title now that it's

Great Game! (5 stars)
A little pricey for iOS, and not universal, but a great game regardless. This game is one of the best game Square has put out in a long time. The iOS port has improved visuals and sound. Further, it retains all the amazing gameplay which made the DS game so great! Many, including myself, want TWEWY 2... buy this and show your support for the franchise!

It's 2.3 GB :( (3 stars)
The game is great but it's enormous!
