Final Fantasy 0.3

Sorry guys, this week's post is yet another excuse to advertise an online game. Hopefully there are some RPG fans... actually you could hate them and enjoy this as well... hell, if you have ever experienced a role-playing game at all, I recommend checking out Synopsis Quest. Basically, what the game does is take all of the core elements in an RPG, from choosing a class, to grinding for money, to defeating a final boss, and condenses them. Basically taking a 50+ hour experience and changing it into a rather quick 10 minute affair (based more or less on your ability to solve puzzles).

The game is genuinely hilarious in all the right places, and RPG fans, such as myself, will laugh out loud (perhaps at how obvious they are when you figure them out) at the solutions to some puzzles. I don't want to spoil any of them, but I'm sure that you will notice them as you play the game. The music perfectly captures the old Nintendo feel, with a rather catchy 8-bit victory theme (though, not quite as catchy as last week's Robot Unicorn Attack music). Look out for the "Act Like a Hero" level, it's one of my favorites.
