Story:Squaresoft brings its popular Final Fantasy franchise to the Game Boy Advance in the form of strategic warfare. 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!

I would love to see this on GOG I love the game and the jobs system. It really deserves not just a re-release I would love to see a high quality remaster. It blew my mind back in the day
technically my first in the series and one of my first tactics game, while the story isn't as good as og tactics I loved how the rules for ech match forced me to change my strategies
Used to own a Gameboy advance, but only played Pokemon. My childhood friend gave me this game before moving and opened my eyes to the world of Final Fantasy. It may not be enough for some, but it's enough for me to make sure this game will always get my vote.
Those games also need your vote!

Worlds Adrift
Worlds AdriftA thousand years ago, a cataclysmic event shattered a world into floating islands scattered across an endless skyline. Civilizations tumbled, societies collapsed, and all seemed lost. From the rubble emerged ragtag bands of nomads, who fly cobbled-together skyships from island to island, scavenging for resources to keep moving. These are the players of Worlds Adrift: Explorers of a new world and seekers of ancient knowledge. Within the coveted ruins of the past, cryptic and forgotten fragments of the technologies developed by civilizations who built much, and over saw the collapse of it all. Harnessing such forgotten knowledge, players build greater and more powerful skyships that carry them further, past the crushing wind walls, through devastating lightning storms, to entirely undiscovered islands holding the mysteries of an earlier age.
