its much too easy. ive never played the original game though. HP for enemys is higher but you level up much faster. there are 4 extra dungeons which are unlocked by defeating the fiends. they have bosses from FF3,4,5 and 6. there are extra items and weapons in those dungeons.in the last one you unlock the ultima weapon sword is there which makes the game easier than it already is. its as good game but i bit too easy.
