[edit] Gameplay

In this version of the game, the mazes for the dungeons are randomly-generated, though certain portions have specific patterns, such as the mazes and rooms in Cids tower. This means that each time the player enters the same dungeon, the path through the maze will be different, although the same items and monsters will be encountered.

In the beginning of the game, Chocobo can only carry a few items. If he dies in the dungeon, the player loses all accumulated items and must start over. As the game progresses, the player will be able to rent storage space in town and send extra items there. These items are not lost if the character dies. The official strategy guide for this game lists all the possible items and the various combinations or actions needed to obtain them.

Chocobo can be equipped with various saddles for armor, and strap-on claws for weapons. There are also special furnaces where a character can forge unique weapons, and Recycle Boxes where the player can combine items to get a new, randomly produced item. It is also possible to earn feathers which provide various special abilities. Moreover, items can be bought and sold in town.

There are several secondary characters, most of which will be recognizeable to Final Fantasy veterans, including Final Fantasy mainstay Cid, a young white mage girl, Shiroma, and Mog, a moogle. Chocobo can also assume the form of some of the monsters from the game if he steps on certain traps.

If the player lets the credits run at the end of the game, he or she will then be given the ability to play a new form of the game where it is possible to play any of the dungeons as one of the support characters. This second play-through also has a secret dungeon with 30 levels.
