Flashback

The classic Live A Live was developed and released by Square (now Square Enix) in 1994 for the Super Famicom console exclusively for the Japanese market. The game became known for its non-standard approach to the role-playing game genre.

The plot of Live A Live consists of seven parts, each of which has its own unique story and protagonist. Each story usually takes place in a specific historical period or fantasy world and its development depends on the player's decisions. Among the stories are a story about a ronin in the middle of the Edo period, a story about a space pilot in the distant future, and a story about a ninja in medieval Japan.

The game has received positive reviews from critics for its non-standard story, gameplay, and well-developed characters. In 2022, it received a remake for Nintendo Switch and will soon be available for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC (Steam).
