Mystics Apprentice rates this game: 5/5Secret of Mana is another amazing game made by Squaresoft and one of the only RPG's that's a 2 player!The gameplay is similar to that of Zelda - in the way that all the monsters are live. Meaning as you walk through the dungeons there are monsters prowling about and you must physically fight them using different weapons such as a sword, spear, bow and arrow, etc. There is no battle menu or the like. You do have an hp meter, though. Personally I prefer this sort of combat, for I feel it is more of a challenge of skills versus the Final Fantasy style combat where it only is a matter of strategizing to get through a fight.The storyline was pretty good. The game really didn't focus on that aspect much, but on surface it wasn't bad.

The memorable adventure of Randi, Primm and Popoi is reborn in Secret of Mana! Randi is a young boy who possesses immense courage. Upon hearing a mysterious voice he discovers the Mana Sword. Armed with the power of the Mana Sword, he sets forth on this quest to learn how to harness Mana.

The main focus really is the gameplay and dungeons, there's really not much to the storyline of Secret of Mana or its characters.I'm a Final Fantasy fan, and this game was a wonderful addition to my collection. Try it, you're bound to love it! Skweebl rates this game: 4/5Secret of Mana is the SNES sequel to the Gameboy game Final Fantasy Adventure. Here, you step into the shoes of a young man who has been chosen by the legendary Sword of Mana - and exiled from his home village for removing it and unleashing monsters. It turns out that the power of Mana, which nearly destroyed civilization ages ago, is threatening to be unleashed again. Naturally, it's up to you to bring an end to it.

Along the way, you meet a young girl and a fairy sprite who join your cause.You adventure through the world, collecting and upgrading weapons, learning magic, fighting tons of bad guys in real time, all while trying to figure out why these things are happening. The combat is a lot of fun - it's one of those games you won't want to skip enemies in since they're fun to fight. The bosses are challenging, and the weapons upgrading system is rewarding. You get several different kinds to play with, including the classic sword and a few odd things like a boomerang and whip.It's a wonderful game, and exemplifies the kind of gold that existed on the Super Nintendo. If you somehow haven't played this game, give it a try!

LeftyGuitar rates this game: 4/5Secret of Mana is a great action RPG. You start off as a young boy who gets banned from his village. Secret of Mana is a real time RPG. You can move around the map, but enemies can attack you at anytime. You fight enemies to gain experience and level up. The ring system is also a unique system, a system where you select your weapons and items. Graphically Secret of Mana is great looking, the soundtrack is also amazing.

If you're RPG fan, you've got to play Secret of Mana. James rates this game: 5/5There is one force in the universe that keeps good and evil in perfect balance.
