  Taken into account this game was made as an "introductory" RPG for beginners, you'll find it has a lot going f

  By NekoTheSpook | Review Date: Mar 24, 2007 | SNES

  As one of the first RPG's I ever played on the SNES (or a video game, for that matter), I thought it was a bit simplistic at first. The RPG genre was not the full-blown juggernaut it is today, and the fans were few and ... Read Full Review

  Squaresoft! Oh my god! Another story about crystals!

  By sequekhan | Review Date: Jun 27, 2011 | SNES

  Mystic Quest, while not a true "Final Fantasy" game, does indeed borrow many elements from its cousin. If you are not familiar with the franchise and the analogy does nothing for your understanding, then allow me to elab... Read Full Review

  An R.P.G. that's good for beginners just getting into the genre! :idea:

  People may sell a lot of hype trying to tell me whether or not a game will be good for me to play. However, I usually don't believe any hype unless I have played it for myself. When I was growing up playing the Super NES... Read Full Review

  Simplified, but still offers something worthwhile.

  By Diamhea | Review Date: Oct 22, 2009 | SNES

  Those of your familiar with the Final Fantasy franchise have likely heard about the controversial attributes of this game. Featuring a "dumbed-down" version of the then-budding Final Fantasy formula to appeal to American... Read Full Review

  Not very long or difficult, but warrants a play-through

  By SilvenGuardian | Review Date: Aug 03, 2008 | SNES

  Maybe it's just the nostalgia talking, or maybe it's really not that bad of a game. People keep comparing it to the other Final Fantasy's and raving about how it's simply an awful title. But it really isn't. It's a ... Read Full Review

  Simplicity doesn't mean it's good or bad, it's just simple.

  Unless you've been living in a cave the last decade regarding video games, you would know that Final Fantasy is one of the most beloved and money making power houses in the video game industry. Once it's labeled with th... Read Full Review

  Not bad, two months before my time, and not really a FF tied with the others.

  Well, if you have seen my other reviews, you know I'm a Final Fantasy Fan. I have played this game before and am not sure what to really thing about it. I mean really, its not bad considering that its from 1992 and all. ... Read Full Review

  Is this even a final fantasy game?

  By PATD123 | Review Date: Apr 20, 2007 | SNES

  I really don't get this game. It is incredibly boring, there's nothing to do. It is the worst final fantasy game ever. The gameplay, like I implied before, is really boring, with nothing to it. The graphics are horrenduo... Read Full Review

  This often overlooked gem is among one of the best Final Fantasy games I have ever played.

  By TeknoBlade | Review Date: Jan 08, 2007 | SNES

  Most Final Fantasy games have the same formula, but Mystic Quest mixed it up a little; it was a pretty gutsy move for 1992 and a company that didn't have many games out yet. Good Features The monsters are visible a... Read Full Review
