valeur: 50 €
critère: **
remarques: a game similar to Secret of Mana but a little more complex
in respect of the combination of magic

instead of being a group of 3, you are alone
with the dog Rocky to travel in the game
there are 4 countries or sections to be visited:
Prehistoria, Antiqua, Gothica and Omnitopia
you have to perform some experience
to increase levels, buy or obtain goods and equipment
but the real point in this game is to elaborate alchemy formulas
by mixing various ingredients that can be found or purchased

the beginning of the game is abit complicate
but as soon as you make some training,
the whole development will become easier and easier
an important note: for the final fight against the boss,
you will have to fight about 5 rounds before getting to the big boss
and round after round, the opponent will become more difficult
but finally if you use the good tactic, the big boss is easily beaten

the end of the game is however abit different from the other video games

n.b. this video game is produced by Square Soft
but the producers are this time American people and not Japanese
