Final Fantasy Mystic Quest is the self proclaimed "RPG for the entry-level player". The gameplay is dummied down from traditional Final Fantasy games. Most battles can be won by holding down the A button, and if you die, you can restart the fight. The story is certainly not up to Final Fantasy II's standards. If there is one saving grace, it is that the music is excellent.
