This review serves as a note for myself to remember what I liked and disliked about the game whenever I will look back at it.
Final Fantasy I
+ The large list of spells is enjoyable
+ Sprites look great, loved seeing the battle backgrounds or bosses
+ Bestiary
+ Interesting magic system
~ Music overall is okay to good
~ Grinding for exp is fine, but grinding for gils to buy spells feels bad
~ Difficulty is okay but overall easy, maybe too easy
- Random encounters. Can get encounters every two or three steps. No
way to prevent encounters, even if enemies deal 1 damage or flee
- Can't understand the attack order
- 'Bonus' dungeons were not enjoyable

[Personal thoughts for my future self to retrospect to]

Pretty good, solid music, very fun. Gem stones stages are quite hard if you want to do them under the 'bonus' time limit.
I think it's more fun to play it any% instead of going for 100% because some parts of 100%-ing it are tedious, so I'll probably have a great time whenever I'll replay it again without going for 100%.
