Its Final Fantasy in a whole new way! Now, you're probably thinking
that this is Final Fantasy for the PlayStation platform! No way, this
is on Game Boy Advance! It's a whole new fantasy!! It's not a remake or a
sequel, this is a whole new ball game!
In Final Fantasy Tactics, you play as a boy named Marche who, with his
friends, finds a book that changes their lives forever. As the name
says, this is a very tactical game that might get a tad boring, or can
get real frustrating at times. Back to the storyline, Marche meets a
clan full of all sorts of people, such as the vieras, nu-mous, humans,
and my favorite, the moogles! Marche makes friends with a particular
moogle, Montblanc. In a clan you basically do missions, and try to
reunite your friends to go back to the real world. In the game, there
is a multiplayer mode that allows players do to group missions, or
trade people or items. There are all sorts of weapons and goodies in
this game that you'll have loads of fun with.
There are unique character classes that each race can be. Sometimes,
you get the characters from the start, often you have to gain enough
abilities in order to use them in the game. The first classes you’ll
probably have will be the Soldier, White Mage, Black Mage, Fencer, and
the White Monk. Also, there are many shops and towns that you can
explore throughout the game.
And at one point, you will have access to Nono’s shop, where every time
you link with someone he gets a new stock of items! The items can be
good, bad, rare, common or almost anything! But unfortunately, he
doesn’t give out mission items.
There are 300 missions, and some secret charactors that are mission
wise. Here's a hint, try using certain items on any quest and you may
get some decent results.
This highly anticipated game proved to be worth waiting for! Two
thumb's up from The Review Zone.com to another fantastic Game Boy
Advance game!
