Final Fantasy VII

The Western release of Final Fantasy VII (released as Final Fantasy VII International in Japan) included additional elements and alterations, such as streamlining of the menu and Materia system, reducing the health of enemies, new visual cues to help with navigation across the world map, and additional cutscenes relating to Cloud's past. This is the original role-playing game, not the Remake series. You play Cloud Strife, a mercenary who joins the resistance group AVALANCHE in the city of Midgar to fight the Shinra Electric Power Company. The story grows into a hunt for the former soldier Sephiroth. Up to three party members fight at a time in turn based battles that use the Active Time Battle system. Magic, summons and special commands come from Materia, orbs that you place in slots on weapons and armor and that gain levels with use. Characters build up Limit Breaks, powerful attacks that become available after they take damage. You travel the world map on foot, by chocobo and by airship, and can visit the Gold Saucer amusement park with its minigames.
