Adventures of Mana is a 3D remake of Final Fantasy Adventure that was developed by both Square Enix and MCF and published by Square Enix. It was released in 2016 for iOS and Android and later for the PlayStation Vita the same year. It is considered to be a more faithful remake than Sword of Mana, as it retains the Final Fantasy elements but does not retain the changes that were added into Sword of Mana aside from the Ring Command system.
Story[edit]
The story follows a young hero named Sumo and a young heroine named Fuji as they go on a journey to thwart the Dark Lord of Glaive and his sorcerer assistant, Julius, from destroying the Tree of Mana and dooming their world.

Release | Reviewer, Publication | Score | Comment |
PS Vita | Robert Ramsey, PushSquare | 6/10 | "The role-playing genre has come a long way since 1991, but that doesn't mean Adventures of Mana should be cast aside. The simplicity of its gameplay makes it a nice portable snack, and as a faithful remake of a Game Boy title, it's hard to fault – just don't expect to get too excited over this dusty old quest." |
PS Vita | Kyle MacGregor Burleson, Destructoid | 5/10 | "It’s a serviceable retro-style action RPG that I enjoyed at times and barely tolerated at others. Unfortunately, I do not possess a great deal of nostalgia for the original game, and without rose-tinted memories, or much in the way of innovative upgrades, Adventures of Mana can feel incredibly backwards and decrepit." |
PS Vita | GR Staff, GameRant | 4/5 | "Square Enix's 3D remastering of an old favorite hits the PS Vita, and Adventures of Mana shows that remaining faithful to the original is sometimes the best approach." |
