The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie

A feature-rich (at times astonishingly so) package of content -- major, minor and entirely optional alike -- Nihon Falcom have proven once again with Trails into Reverie why they remain one of the best and most renowned RPG developers still going.

The duality of its story takes away from the narrative, and the introduction of every gotcha mechanic present in most mobile RPGs hurts more than it should.
