Final Fantasy VII tells the tale of Cloud Strife, a former member of SOLDIER for energy company Shinra and recent Super Smash Bros. inductee that finds himself working with an environmental terrorist cell called AVALANCHE. The group's goal is to destroy all of Shinra's reactors, fearing that the planet may be at stake if they don't. The events that start here then spiral out of control at a breakneck pace as a new, far more sinister threat looms its head toward the planet...

Final Fantasy VII can be purchased on the Play Store for $15.99, the same price as its iOS counterpart.
