Good turn-based console RPG, marred by some serious flaws.
Like most reviews will tell you, The Final Fantasy Legend is not part of Squaresoft's (now Square Enix) iconic Final Fantasy franchise. It was made by the same company, yes, but it's part of the SaGa franchise, which is ... Read Full Review

Not bad for the first handheld RPG ever
As far as I know, The Final Fantasy Legend is the first RPG designed for a portable game system and it's history is somewhat irritating to me. This is not really a Final Fantasy title; this is actually the first game in ... Read Full Review

You do not need fancy graphics to enjoy a good game.
I remember this game being pretty simple graphics wise if a bit less than Final Fantasy Adventure was but still you didn’t have to pretend the blue was water and the green was land. I cannot remember what game I started ... Read Full Review
