01Overview

Final Fantasy, also known as FFI in re-releases, is the first role-playing game title in Square's flagship Final Fantasy series. The game puts players in control of four characters known as the Warriors of Light, and begins by asking the player to select the classes and names of each. The Warriors of Light can traverse the maps of dungeons and towns, which are connected by a world map, and will run into random encounters with enemies or fight bosses. The available classes are Fighter, Thief, Black Belt, Red Mage, White Mage and Black Mage, and you can pick any combination. The story begins with the four elemental crystals having lost their light, and the party sets out to restore them. Battles are turn based. Spells are not powered by magic points. Instead, each spell level has a limited number of charges that refill when the party rests. The party gets around the world on foot, by canoe and ship, and later by airship, and each class can change into a stronger version partway through the game.
