The game that set the bar for future Final Fantasy's. Both in pushing the genre forward onto new hardware and improving on the groundwork the previous games in the series have, this game in a lot of ways still feels modern in design.

You never stick with one group of characters for long, and each dungeon in the game provides a unique twist that keeps the game engaging. You're constantly moving from one interesting objective and set piece to the next, sometimes to the detriment of the characters and story but never failing to keep you hooked.

A great game and probably the oldest Final Fantasy I'd recommend to people who aren't hardcore rpg or retro game fans.
