The Heroes of Light gather as Square begins its maiden voyage into the ever popular Final Fantasy series, and this certainly makes sure it won't be the last fantasy either. Setting the stage for all the games to come this honestly holds up mostly well and I would definitely recommend trying it if you want to experience the series origins, or just want a solid RPG to play.

There is honestly a decent amount of stuff going on the in-game, such as 3 different vehicles you can obtain, weapons that can also have spell effects, different classes that can use different magic or equipment, it's pretty fun to see how much depth there was in just the first game. Of course it does lack something pretty crucial compared to modern ones, and that's the lack of descriptions for items and equipments. This can make building your characters a bit hard if you don't look at a chart explaining stats on stuff, which I'd probably recommend doing. Aside from this, there isn't really any complaints I have. The difficulty felt very fair and aside from one enemy attack having a chance to instakill characters it was easier than I expected from a game of this time.

Now that I've finally played this, I look forward to trying all the other Final Fantasies I've yet to. There's quite a lot, and I would recommend considering trying this one out amongst them.
