Moon Phase is a new feature in Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. This new feature involves the moon into the gameplay. Depending of the type of moon, it will raise up White Magic, Black Magic, special abilities, and physical attacks. There are a total of four different phases and the player can change phases by staying at a Inn. Biggs and Wedge give an explanation of this system at the beginning of the game. Also some enemies will only appear during a specifically Moon Phase inside a certain area.
