That's actually a really fun-sounding premise for a game. It's too bad that it didn't work out.

I know I heard of this game before; I completely forgot about it. Maybe if it wasn't a smartphone game, it would of had a chance. Oh well...

How many more failed mobages are they gonna have to make before they realize that it's a shitty and oversaturated market?

Square is horrible in the mobile realm. For a AAA developer/publisher, they have the worst reputation in shutting down any of their mobile games unless it's a smash hit.

They know it's an oversaturated market, but as long as one huge hit can cover the costs of 15+ flops, they don't care.
