Bahamut Lagoon

Bahamut Lagoon (バハムート ラグーン, Bahamut Lagoon?) was created by Square Co., Ltd.. It was originally meant to be a spinoff of Final Fantasy, but that idea was scrapped, and instead it was called Bahamut Lagoon. It is very similar to the Final Fantasy Tactics and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance games. It was never officially released outside Japan, but was fan-translated by a group known as DeJap.

Gameplay
The gameplay is very remniscent to Final Fantasy Tactics. It combines classic RPG battles with tactical turn-based strategy, much like Advance Wars. Characters have normal RPG statistics such as HP, MP (here called SP), and EXP. They can also use Equipment and curative items. Summoned monsters are also present, in a way, but are constantly ready in battle, and can act on the player's behalf.

The battle system consists of turn-based map movement and RPG battles. The player can, for instance, during turn-based, move his party (a maximum of four characters), then choose commands such as Wait, Magic/Technique, and make a dragon attack an enemy party. Techniques and magic can cause effects to the environment, in example, Ice can freeze water, Thunder can destroy buildings.

Once the player enters a battle with an enemy party, the usual commands, Attack, Magic, Swordtech, Items and the like can be used. Once a battle is won, the party is presented with EXP as well as Items and GP (money).

Outside battle, the player can move around and interact with the characters, buy items and weapons, like any normal RPG.
