| | Final Fantasy IV - Retroview |
 | | Creatively speaking, Final Fantasy IV was excellent in its time, with the active-time battle engine being the biggest innovation, as well as the fact that the story is in no way linked to the previous installments of the series. |
 | | The fourth Final Fantasy only really suffers visually, with pixilated sprites, character portraits, and environments, not to mention inanimate enemies in battle (although a few flying enemies can be seen floating up and down). |
 | | Final Fantasy IV, finally, is difficult overall, yet definitely beatable, and will consume from thirty to forty hours of your life. |
