Roxas-UrBoxas reviews Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest (SNES)

Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest is truly a terrible game. You can go nowhere but where they tell you to go and the experience each time you play or replay this game will always be the exact same... I don't mean simply just linear, I mean like everything right down to the battles, levels, and characters in your team will always be the exact same, never deviating... It was also glitch-y and I recall at certain times the game would freeze along with the music at key points.

Did that stop me from beating this game a good 30 times when I was a tot? Nope! Hahaha! I was a hell of a lot less picky back then when it came to what I was playing and now it seems this game has passed over into a nostalgia zone for me. I have a special weakness for this game because the music in the game used to pump me up and it was really enjoyable to watch a boss go through four stages of suffering when you were killing him. I related to none of the characters but for some reason it was always a game that was comfortable to play because you could shut your brain off and just enjoy the sights and sounds.

I'm giving this game 3 stars for myself and my love/hate for it... If anybody wants to try this game I'd recommend emulating it for free and never spending a single amount of money on it.
