In their own words

FF6 Beyond Chaos Randomizer

FF6 Beyond Chaos Randomizer creates a new Final Fantasy VI mod by randomly remixing game content each time it runs. Players use flags to choose what changes and can select modes including normal, three cave modes, K at N, and dragon hunt. The project says its basic flags permit over 10 billion possible randomizations. Each generated seed produces a patched ROM and a mini-FAQ with details such as item locations, shop information, and monster abilities. Sharing the integer seed lets others generate the same randomization. The free randomizer supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, and is also listed for Super Nintendo-compatible hardware; the project says it works on a real Super Nintendo and has been tested on Super Everdrive and SD2SNES. Windows users are directed to the release ZIP. Non-Windows systems need Python 3.7 or higher, and Python 2 is no longer supported. It requires an FF3 US 1.0 ROM, which the project cannot provide. Windows executable users get sprite assets at startup, while console-mode users download them manually.

Final Fantasy I Randomizer

Final Fantasy I Randomizer is a free browser tool for changing the original US 8-bit NES Final Fantasy game. Upload a compatible ROM, choose a seed and flags, then generate a randomized ROM file or spoiler log. Settings can move key item locations, towns, and dungeons, and change monster and fiend difficulty. Presets include Improved Vanilla, intended to make the original game more welcoming to new players, as well as Floor and Entrance Shuffle, Shard Hunt, Chaos Rush, and Chaos Rampage. More detailed options cover maps, treasures, shops, enemies, party, classes, gear, and other gameplay areas; cosmetic choices include music, palettes, sprites, and interface behavior. Users can save presets, export them to JSON, and load them later. The browser interface runs locally without an installation, but playing the output requires a NES ROM and an emulator or compatible device. The randomizer works only with the US ROM version. Its maker recommends using a legally owned ROM and does not provide a download link. A seed can be recreated when the version and flags match, except for cosmetic Fun% settings.
