"Crystal of Space-Time") is a free-to-play game developed by Matrix Software and published by Square Enix for Android and iOS devices.

Gameplay
Battle System
Final Fantasy Legends: Toki no Suishō uses the turn-based battle system similar to the Conditional Turn-Based Battle (CTB) from Final Fantasy X.
Summons
In Final Fantasy Legends: Toki no Suishō, summons play a pivotal role in a character's stats and abilities. Abilities may only be used when equipped with a certain Phantom Stone. In addition, character stats can only be increased by obtaining memory fragments or upgrading summon Phantom Stones.
Summons can be leveled and can be upgraded in rank after their Phantom Stone has reached the max level. Upgrading Phantom Stones require the player to have the summon fully leveled on its current rank and certain tails obtained in dungeons. However, once the summon's Phantom Stone is upgraded in rank, they revert to level 1 again and must be leveled up once more.
Players can only equip four Phantom Stones to a single character and may not equip a stone if the character’s limit is not enough. Also, all characters has an ability to decrease mp costs of certain elements of some Phantom Stones when placed in first slot.
Phantom Stones can be obtained from completing certain parts of the storyline and quests. Players also have the opportunity to obtain high-level summons by exchanging Space-Time stone that may be obtained as quest rewards or through a cash purchase. In addition, certain game events rewards players with rare summons, Space-Time stone etc.
Quests
By completing quests, players will obtain an Hourglass item. Hourglasses are needed to do event battles, the Tower of Babil, or the hourglass station that could be found in almost every dimension. The hourglass station contains memory fragments of characters that permanently increases their stats. Upon receiving the memory fragment, the player must go to the memory keeper at the space dimension to exchange them for additional stat boost. By completing quests, the players may obtain weapons, rings, Phantom Stones and even tails to upgrade their Phantom Stones.
