Final Fantasy Chronicles Official Strategy Guide: Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy 4

Dan Birlew should continue to write strategy guides for Bradygames. He did a phenomenal job of writing a guide for these two games. There are explanations for each character, all the items, spells, and techs for each game. The walkthroughs are very detailed, but some of the maps are not there. I can understand because some areas are straightforward, but for a first timer I can see them getting lost in some of the castles. There are tons of data on all the items and aspects of the games, and this guide will be informative even to veterans who have played these games multiple times. This guide is the best compliment to the game that you can find.

I really enjoyed this strategy guide. It had very good coverage of the maps and various magic and techs available in both games. I would recommend this strategy guide to anyone who plays Final Fantasy.

This is probably the best strategy guide I have used to date. The detail is incredible, especially for FFIV, and bestiary information (much-needed for FFIV) is given before each dungeon. The walkthrough warns you when a party member will leave you, but doesn't give away the plot. This guide is essential, especially since we're talking about FFIV Hard-Type. Also, a complete guide to CT's Extras Mode and endings is given, making it that much easier to get all those goodies.
