Symphonica (game)


Symphonica is an iOS mobile game on the iPod and iPad released in 2012, developed by iNiS, and published by Square Enix. The game received great reviews among players, and fair reviews among critics. The main reason the game received the low scores from the main critics, like IGN and GameSpot, was the fact that only a small chunk of the story was available upon download. The first 3 episodes are free, but the other 12 episodes are available for 15 dollars. The game discontinued service August 1st, 2016 and then was taken off the app store on August 2nd.
