Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon (チョコボの不思議なダンジョン, Chokobo no Fushigi na Danjon) is a roguelike dungeon crawler video game developed and published by Square. A spin-off of the Final Fantasy series of role-playing video games, it was also the first entry in what would become the Chocobo series. It saw a Japan-only release on December 23, 1997, for PlayStation,[1] and a version was released on March 4, 1999, for WonderSwan. The game was re-released in 2010 on PlayStation Network in Japan as a PSOne Classic.[2]

The game's protagonist is a yellow chocobo, a fictional species of bird in the Final Fantasy universe, named Poulet (プーレ, Pūre).[3] The player must fight through procedurally generated dungeons, picking up items and battling enemies.
