Da? Moon!
2008-02-21 06:44:00 It felt great to take the Falcon up through the hole in the underground ceiling and get back into the fresh air of the overworld. We didn’t spend much time there, however, as we raced off to... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy. More About: Moon , Final Fantasy I
Speaking of Moons?
2008-02-20 06:21:00 Tomorrow, we head to the Moon, and if you?re thinking our luck is changing, I?d guess you?re right. What am I talking about, you ask?

Revenge Served Cold
2008-02-20 06:11:00 Boo yah! The Gods finally smiled on us today, as we made our third attempt at defeating the omnipotent and deadly Malboro Gang, otherwise know as the Green Spaghetti Blobs.

Pwned Again
2008-02-19 00:43:00 Good grief, Charlie Brown. Once again I plowed down to the long line of chests in the Sylvan cave. This time, however, I never made it to the Malboro gang, who inhabit the fourth chest. I was rushing... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy.

Argh!!!! Smoked by Malboros
2008-02-17 23:22:00 Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. When we tried to open the very next chest in Final Fantasy I V?s Sylvan Cave, we got... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy.
Sylvan Cave Again
2008-02-16 23:48:00 Well, we plowed forward with great enthusiasm in the tough Sylvan Cave . Using a pen and paper to map the place helped somewhat.

Excalibur!
2008-02-15 22:43:00 The Wheel of Fortuna may be starting to spin us on a roll of good fortune. We revisit Kokkol the Blacksmith, and he proudly hands us a wonderful new sword: Excalibur !

Mysidia and Moon Ships
2008-02-15 05:46:00 With little desire to head back into the caves down here, I decide to head back up and look for Mysidia, which seemed to be our clue for getting the ship to travel to the moon. Over the past week,... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy. More About: Moon , Ships , Final Fantasy I
Great Weapons!
2008-02-14 05:16:00 (Some very short gaming sessions this week.

Adamantite Is Us!
2008-02-12 06:58:00 We head to the northeast corner of the underworld, where there is a large black hole.

Kokkol the Blacksmith
2008-02-10 21:02:00 Once again denied by the whims of the Final Fantasy I V gods, we leave the Sylvan Cave behind. Perhaps there is something I am missing elsewhere that will enable me to waken Yang. With that in mind,... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy. More About: Blacksmith
Yang Lives!
2008-02-10 06:57:00 After a bit more random wandering through Final Fantasy I V?s Sylvan Cave, we come upon a rather strange site: a large building sitting in the middle of the cave.

Sylvan Cave
2008-02-08 17:50:00 We leave Final Fantasy IV’s Cave of Summons behind us and head north, toward the other cave that we had spotted in our earlier expeditions. Within a short while we arrive, set down the Falcon, and... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy.
Can’t Get Down
2008-02-07 19:48:00 Grrrr. This is frustrating. From the upper platforms in the Town of Summoners, we can see below us to the lower platforms. I can see unopened treasure chests just sitting there, waiting for us to... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy.
Leviathan
2008-02-07 01:42:00 It doesn’t take much more searching of Final Fantasy IV’s Cave of Summons to find a safe zone. It was just a short walk north of the library. We quickly pitch our tents, regain our health, save our... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy. More About: Leviathan
Asura
2008-02-05 07:31:00 We bumble our way around the subterranean town in Final Fantasy IV’s Cave of Summons. After a bit we come to a library on the west side of the town. At the bottom we find a secret passageway that... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy.

Cave of Summons

Sigh.
2008-01-27 17:25:00 Just before we exit the Sealed Cave, we hear Golbez?s voice, summong Kain to him. I knew it was too good to be true. Sure enough, Kain falls under Golbez?s influence again. He highttails it out of... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy. More About: Final Fantasy I , Sigh
Demon Wall
2008-01-26 23:23:00 I knew it. I just knew Final Fantasy I V wouldn?t let us off this easy. Just as I start to think that we?re safe, the cave rumbles and shakes, and we?re attacked by a massive Demon Wall , which makes... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy.
Quick Update?
2008-01-26 05:59:00 Well, so far so good. I’ve been busy, but I’ve been able to keep playing and keep posting. I’m feeling like I’m getting closer to the end of Final Fantasy IV, and I’m...

Doors, Doors, & More Doors
2008-01-24 23:07:00 Good grief, Charlie Brown. So much for thinking the way is clear. There are more doors in Final Fantasy I V?s Sealed Cave than in Home Depot. This wouldn?t be so bad if they were relatively easy to... This full article can be read at http://www.gamingtales.com/finalfantasy. More About: Doors
Death to Door
2008-01-23 19:08:00 Short session last night. Only about five minutes before I crashed from exhaustion.

Death by Deadly Door
2008-01-23 04:12:00 Well, that was easy. Final Fantasy I V’s Sealed Cave was just a short hop away from Tomra. We set the Falcon down, approach the door, and use the necklace to open the thing.

Lost in Lava Land
2008-01-21 00:13:00 Humm. The Sealed Cave is supposed to be to the southwest of the main castle, but we can?t seem to find the place.
