Hack description

What if the King of Baron had banished Joanna rather than Cecilia? That Kluya meets Joanna, the two fall in love, and they have a son and a daughter? And that, after tragedy strikes, this daughter ends up been abandoned in the woods... only to be found and raised by the King?

A single ripple becomes a wave that sends a pair of lovers down vastly different life paths. Cecil, the White Wizard. Rosa, the Dark Knight. This is her story--one of redemption from the darkness within.

Once again, enter the crusade for the Crystals... This time with a new perspective.

Note:

1. Apply this patch to an unmodified FFII US ROM.

2. This is a fork of Project II. All changes present there are present here.

3. This is marked as "Improvement" since there doesn't seem to be a more fitting category.

The game you know with an awesome twistjamielovesgames2023-04-27Version 1.00

Final Fantasy IV is my favorite RPG and game on the SNES. I originally got it way back in 91' and have played through it countless times. However, this is now how I will play it going forward!

Casting Rosa in the lead does not change the larger story, but it does add some awesome twists and needed updates to gender roles. There are some truly touching, and funny, moments in this retelling. And while I know that this hack is a fork of another project, the quality of life improvements are also welcomed. Save spot before the final battle? Yes please! Makes it much easier to grind for level 60 and complete Rydia's spell book.
