To the Moon and Beyond...
SquareEnix has re-released Final Fantasy IV (4) Advance for the GBA system, aka Final Fantasy II in the USA. This new and very improved version of the game takes you from the top of the Earth to the center of the Earth then the Moon and beyond?
In this retelling of a great story they use bolder language and more of the story is told.
You start out as a Dark Knight robbing innocent people, this starts you on a gripping tale of betrayal, love, loss, sacrifice and redemption.
Some of you might remember all those wonderful cheats like the duplication trick and the crystal trick in the dwarf?s castle, well they are all gone. No more cheats and that only adds to this game being even more of a challenge.
Just when you thought it was over, after you beat the game you get a 50+ Level dungeon you can explore that changes every time you go into the dungeon. One tiny detail, you can only go into the special rooms with the people that you beat the game with. So, you will have to complete this game 3 times. It sounds like a lot but I did it in 49+ Hours.
The music in this game is great! 8/10
Graphics are updated from the SNES version of the game. 5/10
Replay value is quite high because of it wonderful and gripping story. 9/10
Overall a must have RPG for any story driven person. 7/10
