Book Reviews of Official Nintendo Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls Player's Guide
Book Review: As usual Nintendo has the Power!
Summary: 5 Stars
Why would you doubt Nintendo Power? This guide is absolutely astonishing. Of course if you already have the Final Fantasy Origins guide by Bradygames... you'll already have the meat of this guide. That does not by all means mean you shouldn't buy it.
Final Fantasy Dawn of Souls is almost a game where you may find the need to pick a guide up. Not just because Final Fantasy I is completely non-linear but because the next location in both games isn't always obvious. A little helping hand is good for some of these instances.
The puzzles won't give you much trouble but you'll feel you'll need the help. Everything in this guide is perfect. All monsters are detailed and there's a complete walkthrough including the extra dungeons!
The guide is almost perfect. There aren't a whole lot of glaring things about it; some boss strategies in both sections were lacking detail. Stats, yes. Actual strategy for the bosses? That's questionable. My last gripe with this guide is they did the same thing BradyGAMES did with the FFOrigins guide. They didn't label the floors. With how long some of the dungeons get (especially in FFII) its easy to lose track of your own position.
This guide covers all the extras. The bonus dungeons are explained in perfect detail. The Soul of Rebirth in FFII also has a full walkthrough.
Now, back to the BradyGAMES issue. If you already have the BradyGAMES FFOrigins guide... it may not be neccessary to pick this one up really. Unless you're craving some help with the extras. The walkthrough for both games reads almost exactly like the BradyGAMES guide. It's almost as if Nintendo grabbed a copy and used some tips. After reading through both guides they both detail nearly the exact same information. EVERYTHING in this guide (except the bonus extras, and some boss' HP levels) can be found in the FFOrigins guide. So if you already have that guide it may not be worth the money to spend another fifteen dollars for a guide that is virtually the same. For the extras you might want to just head off to GameFAQs.
Overall, this is one handy guide to keep by your side when you go about Final Fantasy I and II.
The Good
+Fully detailed walkthrough for both games
+Extras covered
The Bad
-If you have the BradyGAMES FFOrigins guide it may not be worth it to pick this up for the extras alone.
