Dragoon X Omega 2

Despite having the most ridiculous name since Destiny Sword Buster Golden Dragon Myth XXL (no, that’s not a real game), Dragon X Omega 2 is a really, really competent hack of Final Fantasy. We don’t cover hacks too often on TIGSource (actually ever), but DXO2 is a total conversion that’s worth checking out. As far as I can tell, every part of the game is completely new, from the graphics to the music. It’s such that you’ll forget that you’re playing an FF hack every now and then.

The gameplay is the usual NES RPG faire, with plot points pushing you linearly to the game’s conclusion. Unlike FF, you control a single character in this game, which is kind of unfortunate. It does add to the overall feeling of desolation, though.
