 Firon, Maria, and Gus, while escaping the city of Fynn, are separated from their companion Leon. They wind up in the town
of Altair, where Princess Hilda is secretly forming a rebellion against the evil of the Empire. The princess seeks their aid
in her cause, and with helping the rebellion, maybe they could find their missing friend. Their journey takes them all over
the world, as they tried to bring an end to the rule of the Empire, and once again bring freedom to the land.
In the fall of 2002, Final Fantasy was finally released outside of Japan. It was packaged with Final Fantasy in Final Fantasy
Origins.
This was the first time the US got this kind of RPG from Squaresoft. The timing of release could not have been
better. We had already been given similar RPG's, and thus were accustomed to the leveling system.
The graphics were updated
for a fresher look, and the game was set in easy mode. Once you beat the game, you could
then unlock the original, normal mode. There were CGI additions to the introduction of the game, and in the configuration
menu is a collections area. This found items, events, bestiary, and some of the artwork from artist Yoshitako Amano. It was
definitely a great addition to the re-releases in the USA.
