Good port
Standard Dragon Quest RPG with turn based battles and 3D environment. If youre an RPG fan, may be worth picking up :)
My main concerns about buying this were around the quality of the port and features to make it easier to play on the phone, so Ill talk about that. Im about 12 hours in.
The virtual joystick for 3D motion was very well done, and it can be used with either thumb. Camera controls are OK but not something you need ALL the time so its fine. Menus are definitely optimized for mobile and work well. I havent felt like anything is cramped for space playing it on an iPhone 6 (the small one). Im pleasantly surprised at how well this game runs on mobile.
In addition to the original limited save options, they have added a quick save which can be used when not in town, and a fairly frequent auto save. When you want to save and stop you may have to quickly finish a battle or run outside, but generally saving is not too far away if you have to do so.
I remember seeing some reviews complaining about cutscenes - just wanted to say that at 12 hours I havent encountered any scenes without visible dialogue. Also, there is background music.
Only one crash so far, seems pretty stable.
