Story Players, prepare to profess your allegiance to either Cosmos or Chaos...Cosmos is the goddess of harmony, while Chaos is the god of discord. Reigning from distant realms, the two gods had gathered warriors from all lands to lead them in savage war. At one time Cosmos and Chaos were of equal in strength. It was believed that their conflict would last forever. However, the balance is now broken. Those who answered Chaos' call created an inexhaustible force. And under vicious attack without relent, the warriors fighting for Cosmos started to fall one by one. The conflict that has continued for eons is now about to end in Chaos' favor...The world has been torn asunder, sinking into a vortex of disorder. As for the few surviving warriors… their fates have yet to be determined.

Customer Reviews
Hardest game I've ever played.
I have played every FF title to date and have thoroughly enjoyed each one of them. I was therefore inclined to try out this ''compilation'' style FF game. While the game has a lot of great FF element, the battle system is literally ground-breakingly difficult. I was able to manage getting through FFIV's Cecil's story, beating Golbez after only 10 tries. But then I went on to FFVII's Cloud's story and after about 20 fails I am still not able to beat him.
