Final Fantasy Legend 2 came out for Game Boy in 1990, two years after the original Final Fantasy Legend. FFL2 improved much from the first. The storyline is much more detailed along with more supporting characters and more dialogue. The worlds are bigger and more creative. The battle system is more organized too. And there is a new "Memo" feature, which lets you access important details that supporting characters told you. In Japan, FFL2 is known as SaGa 2. Sound familiar? In 1998, Sunsoft got the license for FFL2 and re-released it. They didn't do anything special to it. All they did was re-distribute it for Squaresoft and got most of the profit from it. Ever heard of SaGa Frontier for the Sony Playstation? SaGa Frontier is SaGa 7. Here's a list of all the SaGa games to make things more clear:
• SaGa 1 (Game Boy)
• SaGa 2 (Game Boy)
• SaGa 3 (Game Boy)
• Romancing SaGa (SNES) a.k.a. SaGa 4
• Romancing SaGa 2 (SNES) a.k.a. SaGa 5
• Romancing SaGa 3 (SNES) a.k.a. SaGa 6
• SaGa Frontier (Playstation) a.k.a. SaGa 7
• SaGa Frontier 2 (Playstation) a.k.a. SaGa 8
• Unlimited SaGa a.k.a. SaGa 9
Note: All but the Romancing SaGa titles were released here in the US.

Storyline(You can choose your main character, but for the sake of this prelude I will refer to it as a male human) The game begins with a male human father escaping out the window. The noise awakens his male human son and all that the male human father tells is that he's going away for a while. Years pass by and the male human wants to search for his father, so he rounds up his male human friends and goes off into the world. The male human learns that he must search for Magi if he wants to find his male human father. Once he leaves his hometown, the adventure begins! The male human and his male human friends end up going through caves, temples, enemy bases, ancient Japanese castles, and much more on his journey. He discovers other worlds like a world of giants, a world where beauty is praised and ugliness is banished, a world run by a shogun, a world where everyone is obsessed with dragon racing, a world that only has one huge cave, and much more! |
Battle SystemWhen a member of your party has been defeated, they'll only be stunned for the duration of the battle. Once the fight is over, your downed party members will be revived. If your whole party goes down then Odin will give you another chance. Since enemies usually hit your party leader first, you should make sure that your character is equipped with the strongest armor and the best shield. Spells either attack one group of enemies or the whole screen. Weapons and shields can only be used a given amount of times as well as items and spells. Spells a mutant has learned and the weapons/shields/items of a robot can be restored when you sleep at an Inn. My OpinionThis is my favorite out of the three FF Legend games! Its so fun!! Really! And the music is pretty good too. It has a corny yet interesting storyline. If you love classic RPGs then this game is for you. The battles are mostly text-based and it has 8-bit, 4 color action. Overall, FFL2 is your typical ghetto-fabulous RPG. The only original thing about it is the advantages and disadvantages of the types of characters you can choose for your battle party. Unlike the original FF Legend, FFL2 actually has some characters join your battle party for a while. Final Fantasy Legend 3 continues with this feature.
