## About FINAL FANTASY II

The 2021 remaster of FINAL FANTASY II brings Square Enix's 1988 turn-based JRPG to modern platforms with updated graphics and audio. Set against an anti-imperial war, the game offers open-world exploration with a challenging difficulty curve and considerable length. Its combat system features a unique weapon and spell proficiency framework, with character progression tied directly to actions performed in battle rather than traditional experience point accumulation. Steam Deck verification ensures playable performance on handheld hardware. Priced at $7.79 USD, the title holds an 81% positive rating from over 2000 Steam reviewers. Players describe it as nostalgic and retro, and reviewers highlight its classic soundtrack, emotionally-driven story and character development, and the innovative leveling system that rewards combat specialization.
