A hack for Saga2/Final Fantasy Legend 2 that extends the game with new locations, bosses, cut scenes, monsters, abilities, items, a new post-game quest, and more. Also included are major bug fixes.

List of features:

-Most bugs fixed
-Much of the dialog re-written (with a few ideas borrowed from the Saga 2 DS translation).
-One new world replacing the tiny pointless world after the Guardian’s Base
-Expansion of the Central Temple (the final dungeon) to be about twice the size
-100+ new monster sprites in addition to the original sprites with a lot of original art (and some remasters from Saga1/Saga3)
-Three difficulty modes: Average, Veteran, and Insane.
-Full guide included that covers advanced tips and tricks
-New base monster character to pick from and a new robot variant: the cyborg.
-Remastered FFL2/Saga2 monster graphics
-New cut scenes and bosses
-A few new side-villains
-The option to continue playing at the end of the game with bonus post-game content.
-Dozens of new weapons, items, and abilities.
-Mutants can now eat meat to learn new magic/abilities.
-Many new mutant abilities, and a revamped ability list so Mutants progress better.
-Brand new Monsters to transform into, and many modifications to previous monsters to make them more useful.
-Monster transformations now a bit easier; they don’t downgrade as often.
-Some odd monsters and abilities renamed (like P-Toad, P-Blast, D-Flesh, etc.)
-The ability to stop the shaking at the end of the game by talking to an NPC, as well as a jukebox.
-Brand new level 11 monsters, complete with New Sprites, available to fight in the newly expanded Central Temple
-Optional patches to revert many of the changes mentioned here if they are not desired + other features
-Countless other changes/features that can’t all be listed here…

Yeah I got it to work on mGBA without the BIOS files, it’s how I usually play ’cause I like seeing the intro. Looks great though dude. I’m gonna play the snot out of it now.
