Final Fantasy Tactics Advance trails the story of a young boy named Marche who is magically transported from his sleepy modern-time home to a strange kingdom where magic and adventure reign supreme. Players control a set of troops who specialize in various fighting, healing, magic, and archery skills (or job classes). Strategically positioning characters on the battle map, and calculating offensive advances are the keys to success. Two players can battle and trade items with the aid of the GBA link cable.Show more

It was the first tactics game I ever played in my life. Made me love the genre. Prefer this one than the War of Lions. Wish Square Enix treated this game better.

I first looked for this game because of Tactics Ogre: Knight of Lodis. That they were able to combine what's good about Final Fantasy and Tactics Ogre: Knight of Lodis and its engaging story made this game a gem to play. Sure, the RNG-dependent Gadgeteer can be annoying, true. But it doesn't detract from the fact that it's the job that give Moogles the most stat growth. And, Vieras were just lethal.

Loved, loved looooved this game when I was growing up, had a much different vibe than regular FF Tactics, and frankly a much cooler world IMO. This is one of the games that made me want to start making pixel art, a hobby I keep to this day, loved the artstyle, the isometric pixel art is to die for
This game is a must-play. It still has the best initial story and plot introduction in all of Final Fantasy history. As the fourth Final Fantasy installment I ever played, it created fond memories. This game was definitely made with love, and I believe everyone should play it. Make it happen, GOG!

Flying Warriors
Flying WarriorsIn an unexplored region of China wrapped in mystery, Ryuhi, a boy, was born and brought up in high mountain tops. There he received instruction from his wise teacher, Juan. Though he was young, he made himself a master of Kempo. One day, his teacher Juan was attacked and robbed of the Secret Scrolls of Hiryu-no-Ken, of which he was the author. Ryuhi possessed the 6th volume of the Secret Scrolls, the Shingan-no Sho, or book of the mind's eye which Juan had managed to save. Ryuhi begins his journey to Shorinji in compliance with Juan's last request. Gengai, the bishop of Shorinji welcomed the little Ryuhi, regarded as one of the titans of Shourinji Kempo. Six years later, they received a letter of challenge from the Tusk Soldiers, a mysterious organization of enemies of the Shorinji. Ryuhi is determined to take part in the upcoming "World Tournament of Contact Sports" as a representative of Shorinji. His desire is to prevent the Tusk Soldiers from becoming champions of Contact Sports at the tournament. Ryuhi heard from Gengai that in truth it was the Tusk Soldiers who attacked his teacher and robbed him of the Secret Scrolls. As he leaves for the World Tournament, his thoughts are on his teacher Juan and keeping the fighting spirit burning. The game features combat in a variety of formats, such as kicking and using fireballs to repel monsters in scrolling stages, a system during one-on-one duels against Tusk Soldiers or a pair of martial arts tournaments where the player must attack a mark that appears on their opponent's body, or defend the area when it appears on them (this system is similar to Culture Brain's original Flying Dragon for the NES), and RPG-style command battles against monster bosses. When confronted by a Tusk Soldier or other otherworldly villain, Rick can change into a costumed superhero form or switch with one of his teammates. The player must switch to Flying Warrior form to use the characters' magic powers and defend themselves from the Tusk Soldiers' magic spells.
