Lazy Blog Post - Black Mage ( FInal Fantasy NES )


























This is in honor of the inimitable Black Mage of Final Fantasy fame. I had a blast with this game (the original NES version) 20+ years ago, and was pleasantly surprised to find that, following a quick iPhone download, the game holds up surprisingly well.

The game sports several early "D&Disms", especially in the monster arena, with "Crawlers", "Sahagans", Green Slimes, and such. But the Black Mage follows an especially D&Dish path - weak and near useless at early levels (excepting a very potent Sleep spell), at high levels he becomes a Nuclear-level Terror.

  1. Always better than a Blue Mage in FF franchise, anyway. :D

  2. I had so much fun with that game trying out different parties. Four fighters dominates the beginning of the game. Four red mages are OK but can be difficult the entire time, four black mages was damn near impossible but looked so promising! Of course a mixed party helped if you were starting out ;)
