This review is from: FINAL FANTASY(r) II Official Strategy Guide (Official Strategy Guides (Bradygames)) (Paperback)

If you are tired of exploring every dungeon by your self, this book holds all detailed maps you may need.
Sure, at least one map is missing (again). But I haven't completed the game / book yet.
Even if Bradygames "lost" some maps again, they made a huge development compared with their FF1 Strategy Guide. The caption tags do not cover important passages on the maps anymore.

If you need a hint how to solve a specific puzzle, this book hardly provides answers. E.g.: I needed "something cold" to cool down the Dreadnaughts machine during one of the bonus-dungeons. If I refer to a book with a walkthrough, I expect the name of the needed item and where to get it. But this book just repeated the task: you need "something cold". Nobody needs these stupid "gap-fillers". My primary intention is to play the game. I just need a hint if I got stuck during the game. Some short and precise information's. I definitely never need this multi-page repetition of the obvious main story the game is providing anyway by itself.
In my opinion, the old strategy guides distributed by Piggyback (ff 8 etc.) were much more useful.

Conclusion: If you need some Dungeon maps for your orientation, this book is the right choice. If you expect any hints how to solve a puzzle, better try to find it in the www. !

3.0 out of 5 stars Love the info, but the binding wasn't great quality, August 6, 2010

The info in this guide is great, and I haven't actually finished the game yet but it's helping quite a bit. I'm using this guide for the iPhone version of the game and it works great.

Only problem I have is that the spine is starting to break down and I've only used it a little bit, only about 1/3 of the way through. I'm hoping that it's just a fluke, but it wouldn't make me not buy the guide.

Fantastic guide with great information. I did, however, have to reference GameFAQs for a better explanation of how to best get all of the weapons from the Arcane Labyrinth. Definately worth the money.
