Final Fantasy I Walkthrough

16. The Ice Cavern is an Excellent Dungeon

Your next destination is the Ice Cavern. Return to your boat, and head north from the Crescent Lake port along the coast until you reach another port. Then, take the shallow water until you reach another cave.

The Ice Cavern is very straightforward. Take the path until you reach a staircase, and follow that down. In the next room, head to the southwest corner and take another staircase. The next room is tiny, and just take the next staircase. Circle around and enter the room and open the two chests, avoiding the cracks in the floor, to find a Flame Sword and the Shirt. Then, step on one of the cracks to fall to the next floor.

Step out of the little room you land in and head west, across the spikes, into a treasure room. Collect your Ice Armor and Mythril Gloves. After that, head south of the first little room, then south and west into a bigger treasure room. Collect your 40784 gil, then head to the southeast area of this room to move on.

In the next room, move south to the treasure chest and get your Potion. There’s 10000 more gil in the chest you can see south of that, as well. Head to the large room in the south of this area and grab a Sleeping Bag, Ice Shield, and 9500 gil. If you step on the crack near these three chests, you will fall in an area where you can get the Levistone after battling the easy Evil Eye. You were there for the Levistone, so you can go to a quick exit by returning to the room with the crack and heading to the northeast area, where you will find some stairs that will instantly take you out.
