For those who have the Nintendo Switch console and were envious of players who have played Final Fantasy VII Remake, don't put yourself down because SquareEnix just released TRIALS OF MANA. It is the third entry of the MANA Series and it is a remake from the ground up. The original game was released on the Switch on the "Collection of Mana" series. If you have played the demo of this game, please do not delete it until you have purchased the full game. It will utilize the SAVED DATA from the demo version and port it onto the full game. Once you have done that, you will start where you left off from the demo. This is a great game. never i have realized that i would like to play this a whole day on a handheld. Although there are some areas in the game where I do not like, where you have to use the right analog stick to move the camera angle where it sometimes blocks your view from an area of the game. The developers should have made it to readjust the angle of the camera especially when you are in the middle of a battle (but that was just my only gripe). TRIALS OF MANA delivered to the fans of the series and for those rpg players. The soundtrack is perfect and there is an option if you like the new soundtrack or the classic soundtrack. Graphics are great in this game, though you may have to play it on DOCK MODE because you may have to bring the screen closer to you to read it. It's still legible but I recommend playing with your big tv. You will appreciate how well they really made the game from scratch. Voice dub is a niche for me because I still have to read the subtitles below. Some fans prefer the Japanese dub over the English one. But at least you have your options. TRIALS OF MANA is great and I only have played it in a few hours (without playing the demo) and is a big big big recommendation from me. When you get the chance to get the physical copy, it is definitely worth it. But if you cannot wait, it is now available to download on Nintendo eShop.

A Great Remake for a Great Action RPG Port

This game has been stuck in Japan since 1995 you couldn't play this game in English officially until 2019 with the "Collection of Mana" release. The remake gave the franchise a revamp it needed since most titles are actually stuck on the GB/GBA/DS era making it more accessible to modern consoles. This JRPG does not disappoint, with great gameplay, graphics, and voiceover which was a nice addition. Each character has a storyline that will unlock depending on the party members you select during your first play through encouraging replayability (took me about 40 hrs to unlock all storylines). Picked this up for retail at $29.99 but have seen this title as low as $15.99. It does have a demo that can carry over if you decide to buy the game. It's easily a hidden gem for me.

Trials of Mana

I could only give it a 5 solely because of the gameplay was fun and exciting. I felt like the game is done in a rush, story-tellings are very bad when there are so many good examples out there.
