Trivia
Magus's three generals, Ozzie, Slash, and Flea, are named after famous musicians: Ozzy Osbourne, former lead singer for Black Sabbath; Slash, guitarist for Guns n' Roses; and Flea, bassist for the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Goofs
The cover art of the box art for the USA Super Nintendo version shows Marle casting a Fire spell, but she cannot do this as only Lucca as that ability. Marle can only cast Ice spells.

Quotes
Magus: If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh.

Crazy credits
In addition to the two main endings, of which there are two versions, depending on whether you attacked Lavos with the Epoch or not, there are also ten additional endings, most of them light and goofy, that can be accessed by the bucket in the End of Time or Lucca's Telepod, at various points during the game. However, since Lavos is incredibly hard, you should only attempt this with the New Game+ option, after you have beaten the game.

Alternate versions
In late 2008 a version was released on the Nintendo DS that featured new animated clips in the game and some changes in the story.

It is the best game anyone could ever hope to play in a single lifetime

Play it if you haven't. If you haven't played then you are missing the single best game ever made. After all, a dream-team game between the Dragon Warrior(Quest) people and the Final Fantasy people would have to hold the title of "BEST GAME EVER CREATED".
