A Little Adventure into this Final Fantasy Title

Final Fantasy was the first game in the Mana series. This Final Fantasy spin-off released on the Game Boy has a different RPG style; it is an Action RPG . An Action RPG is a game where you fully control the character even during battles, but still have RPG elements such as equipment and stat points (HP, strength, defense, etc...) This difference in style is why most Final Fantasy fans reject this game as a Final Fantasy title and insist people refer to it as a Mana title.

The Spinning Fallacies of Final Fantasy Adventure 

While most Final Fantasy fans don't consider this game to be a Final Fantasy title, it was actually meant to be a spinoff even back in Japan!

for a Final Fantasy Adventure

Final Fantasy Adventure , or Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden as it is called in Japan, was released in 1991 in both Japan and the US and two years later was released in Europe. The game was rereleased here in 1998. No updates were added, only that it was put back on the shelves thanks to SunSoft. Years later the game was remade and given a real Mana name - Sword of Mana.

Gameplay 

within the Action RPG confines of Final Fantasy Adventure

Unlike regular final fantasy games where battles are in an alternate screen and characters take turns, characters in this game take upon dungeons with a Zelda-esque attack system, but also the ability to use magic and raise stats other than simply health. There are also more puzzles to be found here than any Final Fantasy title of the time.
