Final Fantasy III is the sixth main installment in the Final Fantasy series, developed and published by Square. It was the final title in the series to feature two-dimensional graphics, and the first story that did not revolve around crystals. The game gives players up to fourteen playable characters, the largest cast in the series, and features the Active Time Battle pseudo-turn based menu command system. A party can consist of up to four characters, though some events require the player to assemble three different parties of up to four and switch between them. Each character has a unique command ability, such as Terra's Trance, Locke's Steal, Edgar's Tools or Sabin's Blitz, and can also learn Magic spells from earning AP from battles with magicite equipped. Each character's rare Desperation Attack will randomly activate after using the Attack command when at critical health.

That's why its the goat, the goat

So this game is technically final fantasy 6 in asia, but most of us in the west grew up knowing it as FF3 and honestly the name doesn't matter because it's incredible either way. The biggest thing that hooked me was the way they told the story through characters. Instead of one main hero you get like 14 of them and somehow the game makes you care about almost all. Terra, Celes, Sabin, Edgar and the list goes on, these characters have actual arcs. Kefka (Kafka?) is also one of the best villains in any RPG, full stop. The writing of the guy is genuinely unhinged and actually wins halfway through the game, which was insane to experience as a kid. Combat was fun and each character plays differently enough that you actually think about your party. If you've never played it, go fix that. It holds up completely and still beats most modern JRPGs on story alone.
