About The Game
In the small kingdom of Horne, Brandt awakes on the morning of his 14th birthday.
Today is the day he becomes an adult, and the custom of the realm says that he must go to the castle to present himself to the king. Yet when he arrives at the castle, he finds the king distraught and the youngest princess missing, abducted by the Witch of the North. With no one else to turn to, the king makes a shocking request: will Brandt save the princess?
And thus Brandt’s adventure begins...
FEATURES:
- The first original FINAL FANTASY title for Nintendo DS brought to life by the development teams behind the Nintendo DS remakes of FINAL FANTASY III and FINAL FANTASY IV.
- Charming storybook visuals crafted under the guidance of art director and character designer Akihiko Yoshida (FINAL FANTASY III for DS, FINAL FANTASY XII).
- Combat is fun and intuitive with a battle system that operates on Action Points. Requiring nothing more than a simple selection of commands, players can dive right into a classic turn-based RPG battle experience.
- The Crown Job System offers a selection of over two dozen jobs to choose from. Players can freely customize a character’s abilities and magic skills no matter which crown they have equipped. The possibilities are endless!
- Help friends advance in their adventure, or join forces to conquer tough dungeons. The multiplayer mode enables cooperative play for up to four players.

Looks like another awesome old-school RPG for the DS. Can't wait!
Yea i just might get this myself!!!
This is gonna be awesome, I have a group of four (myself included) that played through all of the Crystal Chronicles titles, this looks like it could be the next title we play through!
Arg! I don't see whats so special about this but the art style and the crown system? Someone tell me!
@turtlelink
Does the fact that the words "Final Fantasy" are in the name count?
this will be right up there with dragon quest IX for DS rpgs
Do not underestimate this game because I did LOL I thought it was going to be a piece of cake to finish (Not true. So not true! LOL). I really like this Final Fantasy game! I had it in my game collection for a very long time without going beyond the beginning part. There are different jobs with their own and similar abilities that are represented by crowns/hats. One of my favorites was the Beastmaster ability that required you to turn your entire team into animals to fully use all abilities. BM crown got me out of so many tough boss fights. I recommend this hidden gem to everyone. I'm also happy that they carried on the style of this game with the Bravely Default games. Bravely is the spiritual successor of 4 Heroes, which makes me so happy! LOL
