Item Description
Four Light Warriors, each carrying a darkened orb, walk into the kingdom of Coneria. They rescue Princess Sara from the rogue knight Garland, cross the bridge north of the castle, and only then does the story's opening text finally scroll onto the screen. A whole introductory quest before the adventure properly begins still ranks among the great openings in RPG history, and it belongs to the game that started Final Fantasy.
Your party is yours from the first screen. You name four heroes and build them from six classes, Fighter, Thief, Black Belt, Red Mage, White Mage and Black Mage, and that choice shapes everything that follows; a party of four Fighters plays nothing like a team leaning on magic. Spells are bought one at a time in town shops and limited by charges per level, so every dungeon becomes a test of how well you rationed your healing, and the four Fiends, Lich, Marilith, Kraken and Tiamat, wait at the end of increasingly brutal crawls. Partway through, bringing a rat's tail to the dragon king Bahamut promotes your party into Knights, Ninjas, Masters and Wizards, a power spike that still feels fantastic. A ship, a canoe and an airship raised from the desert sands steadily open the map until the story folds back on itself in a time loop that leads to Chaos.
The team behind it reads like a founding roster: Hironobu Sakaguchi directing, Yoshitaka Amano's artwork, programming by Nasir Gebelli and music by Nobuo Uematsu, whose rippling “Prelude” and stirring main theme debuted here and still echo through the series today. Square released it in Japan in 1987, and Nintendo brought it to North America in 1990, where it joined Dragon Warrior in teaching console players what a role-playing game could be.
Later remakes smoothed its rough edges, but the NES original keeps the challenge and quirks that made it legendary, from attacks that turn “Ineffective” when their target has already fallen to dungeons that punish a poorly stocked party. Playing it on the original cartridge means meeting the series exactly as Western players first did.

About the game
Final Fantasy, also known as FFI in re-releases, is the first role-playing game title in Square's flagship Final Fantasy series. The game puts players in control of four characters known as the Warriors of Light, and begins by asking the player to select the classes and names of each. The Warriors of Light can traverse the maps of dungeons and towns, which are connected by a world map, and will run into random encounters with enemies or fight bosses.
