Today we have one of my favorite games, Secret of Mana. It's similar to the Zelda games, but it has it's own unique style so it doesn't feel like a rip off. It's unfortunate that more of these action RPGs weren't released for the SNES, they're usually great.
You play as some guy whose goal is to stop the evil fortress of doom from destroying the world. Typical stuff, but it's a fun ass game. There are tons of different enemies to fight and spells to use. It's a fairly challenging game until you get some decent spells, then you can just spam the spells and nothing will ever touch you. Or you could actually play the game the way it's meant to be played and not be a spell spamming homotron.
Why this game is awesome: 1. You can choose between 8 different weapons, all of which can be powered up multiple times. 2: You have 3 characters, and all of them can be controlled by you and your friends/family/hookers you paid to play SNES with. 3. You can kill fucking Santa Claus at one point.
The graphics are great, compare this to anything else in 1993 and you'll be like "wow that's awesome". The music is great too, each location has its own theme and they all fit really well. The control is good, though there are some rare glitches that can help or hurt you. The only thing I don't like about it is the fucking tiger you fight at the beginning, that cocksucker is almost impossible.
Overall: 9.5/10 - Quit reading this and go play it.
