Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles - The Crystal Bearers

200970/100
Role-playing (RPG)Adventure

Fantasy · Open World

Crystal Bearers discards the series' traditional turn-based combat for a physics-driven playground where your telekinetic powers are the primary verb. You'll spend as much time flinging enemies, solving environmental puzzles, and interacting with the whimsical world of Spira as you will in direct conflict, creating a uniquely experimental action-adventure feel. Its charm lies in this playful, systemic sandbox approach, where the joy is found in experimenting with the rules of its world rather than grinding through a linear RPG progression.

About Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles - The Crystal Bearers

View Game Details
A thousand years have passed since the events of the original Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles. The destruction of the Yuke Crystal during the Great War, with the Yuke Tribe suffering apparent annihilation, had at last brought the victorious Lilties dominion over the world as they bring it into a new age of science and reason through machines called "crystal reactors," with the use of magic outlawed and rule over the Clavats and few Selkies who comply to the new order. In this new era of imbalance exists a rare breed of powerful beings called "crystal bearers", whose seemingly magical abilities have led them to be feared and scorned by the public.
