Terranigma is a really great game. I finished it about two months ago and I have to say that it made me a Terranigma fan. Everything was well done in that game although it isn't one of the most in-depth RPG's that I've played.
I really like the idea about letting town develop into cities and so that you can affect their growth. I felt great when I finally managed to expand all the towns into prosperous cities. There are so many things to do in the world map, too, and it's great that they use the real world map representing Earth and then the twisted-like world map representing the Underworld. There are so many things to do in the surface world and it's funny to find all those secret places to get Magirocks.
I also like the real-time battle system very much. It's great to try to avoid enemies as soon as one can and many of the bossess are challenging (like that bloody hard Bloody Mary).
The graphics are nice. I really liked the area in Amazon where the Ra tree is after Ark revives it (can't remember the area's name right now). I liked Norfest Forest as well as the architechture of some castles and buildings. There are also funny minigames like eating food and racing in a maze.
The music of Terranigma is very beautiful as well. I liked many of the songs but especially two melodies play in my head. Those are the song that is played during the final boss fight and the another one when you wander around Crysta for the last time before the game ends. Those two were very fine songs indeed.
I would rant about how great this game is longer but I just would repeat myself. The story is somehow tragic and I really felt sorry for Ark. The poor guy had too many misfortunes in his life. Anyway, Terranigma is a great RPG that everyone should play. When I first played it, I thought it was just an average RPG but when I got into it I really started to like the game. I recommend this game for anyone who wishes to play a wonderful RPG.![]()
