Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light
SCORE: 58
Square Enix has a good name in the role playing realm. But even they are allowed a stinker once in a blue moon. Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light is one of those stinkers. It is like the developer did everything possible to make Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light as annoying and difficult as possible.
The graphics in Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light are hideous. The details are lacking, the characters are blocky, and nothing looks good. There is violent content as characters attack in the normal turn based fashion. The monsters are also ugly looking. Certain female characters may be trying to entice to lust, but the details are so poor it is hard to make out.
If you can ever get past the poor graphical images in Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light then you have to deal with the bad language. The standard Final Fantasy music saves this Nintendo DS game from becoming a total disgrace. The bad language was not required and distracts from an already handicapped game.
The quest in Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light is long enough for most gamers to feel they got their moneys worth. This reviewer feels like money was wasted on Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light. Please learn from this mistake and avoid this hand held title.
The absolute worst part of Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light is the game play. We have orbs that are used to do all of our in battle actions One orb is provided to us per turn. One orb is taken away to attack, and two for most magic attacks or defenses. This means magic runs out fast in Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light. We can only use the Cure spell in battle. So we have to use items to heal outside of battle. Except we can only carry so many items per character.
These restraints and odd game play mechanics hurt Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light. It turns into a rather frustrating adventure where we try to find where to go next. Sometimes the game directs us, and others we are left to our own devices.
Final Fantasy
The 4 Heroes of Light is steeped in magic, crystals, and all kinds of
occult creatures. The first quest we go on is to defeat a witch who
transforms into a dragon. She turns a town into stone because we saved
the princess. And that is merely the beginning.
