DESCRIPTION

Brought to your Super NES by the makers of the Final Fantasy series, Secret of Mana is a wonderful game that fans of The Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past and other action-oriented RPGs will thoroughly enjoy. This epic saga lets up to three gamers (with the help of a multi-tap adaptor) explore a vast, lushly illustrated world filled with monsters and secrets. There's occasional slowdown (when too many characters are onscreen at once), but this is virtually the game's only fault. The battles are enjoyable, there's plenty of upgradeable weaponry (sword, axe, whip, spear, boomerang, gloves, bow, javelin) and magic, the musical score is appropriately grand, and the storyline, which features a number of plot twists, is engrossing. ~ Brett Alan Weiss, All Game Guide

“Nice classic list.”

Secret of Mana (SNES) by: Bonemane

“In some ways I'd say this game is overrated. Its characters are cardboard cut-out, typical naive RPG protagonists; the general story has been told a million times. What secret of mana does do, is throwout typical turnbased combat for fluid real time.”

“A very good game, if only all the other Mana Games, they made could live up to this one..”

Secret of Mana (SNES) by: Shadsy

“A generic fantasy setting coupled with some nice music and an inventive real-time battle system with multiplayer support. Good, but apart from the combat, nothing groundbreaking.”
