Has anyone here played Mystic Quest,

I downloaded it and it plays for about 20 mins and then locks up, is it a bootleg game or am i just unlucky, it seems a good game but it just wont work

i have

i got a supernintendo

dint know it was a finalfantasy game

I've played it and it reminded me of Pokemon.

I've played two different games called Mystic Quest. One was fantastic, the other was a let down

The "USA" Final Fantasy game. This was made by Square USA as an introductory RPG. This game is fairly easy and simple, many do not consider this as a "real" Final Fantasy game for these reasons. The Newbie Final Fantasy if you will. Originally released on the Super Nintendo.

I thought it was a pretty good game for starters.

Ive played FFMQ and i thought it was cool, yes the graphics are similar to poke'mon, but hey its SNES what do u expect. Anyways its kinda strange because you almost never keep any of the characters permanently. I recomend playing this all the way through. As for different ver. of it iv'e only seen one. I dont know how different they are but i can say that at the beggining of the FFMQ i played your on a mountain side.

how did u know the mystic quest was a ff game
i have the game and it dosn't mention it anywhere

The European version doesn't have "Final Fantasy" on the title. It was called Mystic Quest Legend

yeah, FFMQ was released to the USA from japan cuz they thought we were idiots...so they made the easiest RPG ever for us...

Ha ha ha, I wonder if thats true?

--Shrugs--

All I can tell you man is keep searching for ROMS for it but please be carefull, a lot of those Emulator sites have spyware and crap, I recommend you get firefox (google it if you don't know what I'm talking about.)
Oh and watch out for the Hentai roms too (WTF?)

Peace

Isnt their a Zelda style fighting one? like the gameboy version? The one I played was fun.

Um...why are there two OWA's?

Actually, that's not entirelly true. FF Mystic Quest was actually produced by Square USA's old Washington HQ (now long defunct), which developed the game in order to boost flagging US sales of their dumbed-down local release of the excellent Super Famicom FFIV (FFII on the SNES).

Basically, the idea was to market a entry-level FF game designed especially for US audiences, who would like what they saw in FFMQ, and then (hopefully) graduate to the proper FF games and buy FFII. Unfortunately, the good-intentions soon went drastically awry, when gamers realised that FFMQ was really just a watered-down, extremely easy affair marketed more to pre-teens than proper RPG fans - a game which really wasn't fun to play.

Accordingly, most FF fans perfer not to classify FFMQ in the proper FF games, but it ahs it's small legion of fans. And yes, it was released in Japan and Europe as well, under different names of course (FF USA in Japan, and Mystic Quest Legend in PAL).

I got FFMQ off of eBay awhile ago, and I agree with what Enkidoh has said about this game. If you're just starting to play RPG's, then FFMQ is a good place to start as it's incredibly easy to play (Of course a six year old could probably beat this game hands down), and it introduces the player to another genre of gaming.

One of the worst games EVER.

The version I played had another title FF Adventure, but on the GB cartridge its called Mystic Quest, not FF USA or Mystic Quest Legend,

Ah, the Gameboy FF Adventure isn't even a FF game. It's actually the first in the Mana series (known as 'Seiken Densetsu' in Japan), but Square USA changed the name to FF Adventure in order to sell it, despite the fact that it's sequel on the SNES (Secret of Mana) sold very well in the US and PAL territories.

Recently, it was rerelesed on the GBA with the title Sword of Mana, so I don't know how your copy came out titled 'Mystic Quest Kemtach2999. Unless, someone fidlded with the label, but that is highly unlikely.
