This game was an enjoyable entry within the Final Fantasy series. The storyline is great and was revolutionary enough for its - a group of characters that join together under the common goal within the Rebel Army, to defeat the Empire who has caused turmoil and trauma to each individual involved. Introduced was a somber storyline with interesting aspects of the lore and background of characters and locations. Mechanics-wise, the levelling system is different to the traditional variant, which was refreshing. No explicit levels, just increases in different stats, spells and other attributes which can easily be exploited. Whilst the "Trap Rooms" did feel overused at times, they were not enough of a hinderance for a less enjoyable experience as they seemingly added another layer to dungeons regarding difficulty and problem-solving. Early game however, navigating the map and figuring out the next location to progress the story felt fearful, due to over-levelled enemies in certain areas which were very close to your own location and one step in the wrong direction would instantly destroy your team.
