Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a KingJPN is a video game developed for the WiiWare service of the Wii console by Square Enix. Square Enix decided to make a game for the WiiWare service that would be high profile, and it was decided that the game would be a simulation game and, later in development, a Final Fantasy title.
It is a city-building game set in the world of the action RPG Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles and is the third title in the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles series. Following the events of the first Crystal Chronicles game, the son of a king who lost his kingdom during the first game establishes a new kingdom and sets about rebuilding a peaceful and prosperous kingdom.
A WiiWare launch title in all regions, it was released on March 25, 2008 in Japan, May 12, 2008 in North America, and May 20, 2008 in Europe. The game costs 1500 Wii Points and takes up 287 blocks of the Wii's internal memory. Reviews of the game were generally favorable. A followup, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a Darklord, was announced at a Nintendo keynote speech at the Game Developers Conference 2009. The game is also one of the first games to support Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Pay and Play; it offers downloadable content that can be bought with Wii Points (the DLC consumes more blocks, though). The Wii Points used for it must already be on the Wii Shop Channel.

Famous quotes containing the words final, fantasy, crystal, life and/or king:
“Only an attitude remains:
Time has transfigured them into
Untruth. The stone fidelity
They hardly meant has come to be
Their final blazon, and to prove
Our almost-instinct almost true:
What will survive of us is love.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“The search for conspiracy only increases the elements of morbidity and paranoia and fantasy in this country. It romanticizes crimes that are terrible because of their lack of purpose. It obscures our necessary understanding, all of us, that in this life there is often tragedy without reason.”
—Anthony Lewis (b. 1927)
“The Thirties dreamed white marble and slipstream chrome, immortal crystal and burnished bronze, but the rockets on the Gernsback pulps had fallen on London in the dead of night, screaming. After the war, everyone had a car—no wings for it—and the promised superhighway to drive it down, so that the sky itself darkened, and the fumes ate the marble and pitted the miracle crystal.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
“Those who prepared for all the emergencies of life beforehand may equip themselves at the expense of joy.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“...if I perish, I perish.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Esther 4:16.
Queen Esther, as she gathers strength to go to the king on behalf of her people.
