Final Fantasy Adventure, also known by its Japanese title Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden (or Seiken Densetsu), is the first installment of the Mana series. It was originally released for the Game Boy in 1991 in Japan and North America and then in 1993 in Europe with the title Mystic Quest, which was one of the first Final Fantasy games to release there, the other being Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. In 1998, Final Fantasy Adventure was re-released in North America by Sunsoft.
Final Fantasy Adventure features gameplay roughly similar to that of the original The Legend of Zelda, but with the inclusion of basic role-playing statistical elements. The game was a spinoff of the Final Fantasy franchise and featured some of its recurring elements, such as a Chocobo. Ever since the release of the second Mana title, Secret of Mana, the Mana series disconnected itself from the overall Final Fantasy franchise.
Final Fantasy Adventure's North American box art and logo were both designed after that of Final Fantasy Legend II and Final Fantasy Legend III's. Both the North American and European box covers have a green background.
In 2003, a remake, Sword of Mana, was released for the Game Boy Advance. Its plot is a retelling of Final Fantasy Adventure's, and a lot of its gameplay was changed, including the removal of Final Fantasy-related elements. In 2006, Final Fantasy Adventure was remade for the Softbank 3G and i-Mode services for Japanese mobile phones and then for the EZweb service in February 2007. The Final Fantasy-related features were reinstated in all three versions, which have graphics on par with Sword of Mana. In 2016, a 3D remake of Final Fantasy Adventure, titled Adventures of Mana, was released for iOS, Android, and PlayStation Vita. Like the mobile releases, Adventures of Mana also has the Final Fantasy-related elements intact.
In 2017, a port of Final Fantasy Adventure was released as a part of the Collection of Mana compilation for the Nintendo Switch in Japan. In 2019, the compilation was released in other countries, and is the first time that the original Final Fantasy Adventure was reissued on to another platform outside of Japan.
