    Love the original on snes (played a fan translation on an emulator). This is so much different and in some ways, better. Really good game if you enjoy action jrpgs. Multiple story lines for the different characters names it worth replaying.

    I am glad to have this mana game finally release in the US. Combat is really engaging and the team combos keep you engaged. Some of the voice acting can be a little annoying. Hourly recommend if your looking for a JRPG that is very ready to grab and go.

    Seiken Densetsu 3 hits the west!!!

    Finally! When the Collection of Mana game released for the Switch in the states, I bought it IMMEDIATELY. For those who don't know the history, there was a BELOVED game on the Super Nintendo called "Secret of Mana". There ended up being a sequel game on the Super Famicom in Japan and Europe, but for whatever reason, it never made it to western regions. Our only recourse to play the game (Seiken Densetsu 3, third in the series) was to use an emulator, rom and translation pack. Then the collection was announced, and I was hyped. But right after, we got a trailer...and I recognized what it had to be immediately: A FULL remake of SD3. I am not at all disappointed with this game, considering the literal decades of hype that has built up for me. Buy this game, it is a master class in how to translate a 2D 20 year old game to full 3D.

    I'm a big secret of Mana fan and played the old version of trails of Mana. When I saw that they had made a new one for the switch I had to have it. Great story line, love to see the characters graphic improvements and just made me feel nostalgic.

    It’s an awesome remake to a beloved franchise, gameplay is awesome, the colorful world are amazing, and story is interesting. The only thing that I don’t like is the English dub, but other then that, you won’t regret getting this game at all.

    Overall, the remake is excellent. The graphics have been given a 3D overhaul, and the combat is engaging. The other RPG systems may be hit-or-miss but do not hurt the game. The cutscenes, however, suffer from annoying voice acting and long pauses. The Japanese voices help bring the annoyance down a few notches, though.

    I really enjoyed this remake and I enjoy that different paths of characters you can use and that it will change the story. It has a lot of replayability due to this.

    I love the way this game combines old school writing and overall pacing and play with updated graphics. I really wish FF7 would have taken this general approach. Just a face lift to the graphics folks, not a completely new game. They struck a nice balance here making the game fun, looks great, good customization to keep things different and interesting. Awesome game, I hope Square Enix uses this blueprint for other remakes (doing FF7 in a true to the original form, ff8, ff9, or any of the first 9 final fantasy games!)

    Graphics are clean, game runs smooth, music is classic old school RPG. Square Enix never disappoints. This is my first time playing this franchise and gotta say it’s a great game.

    Great gameplay with good visuals. The only con is the English voice acting, it is really bad. Luckily, you can also change it to the original Japanese sub which sounds fine.

    I never played the original. I love the ideas this game has. Picking your main character and party is very interesting. However I did wish I knew that some characters stories play better into others, however I guess that adds to replayability. The class advancement is cool as you can pick and choose how your characters grow and what they become. The combat is very fun and somehow never gets old even though it is somewhat repetitive. its not the most stand out game ever for me, but for sure one I can see myself re visiting often through the years, Its just a fairly short simple fun jrpg that doesnt take it self to seriously and for that its very charming and entertaining.

    Great remaster of a 90s game with awesome music and visuals. Simple but satisfying gameplay. I got it for a great price on sale, too, so no complaints from me.

    For the hail mary release, this game is a remake of a game that originally didn't come out in the US in the 90s. The game is a sequel to the secret of mana and the original version can be played now on the collection of Mana (2018) with the other original mana games. I like the combat system, I wish they let you change to the original or secret of the mana system. even though the game is great, it is dragged down by outdated mechanics which can't be helped since it's a remake of an old game. But this is the first Mana/ Square Enix Remake that's actually good since the older mana games made in the 2010s are unplayable and weren't given a good budget. FF7 Remake is not included in the rejects and is a better game but both are great buys

    A great remake to an amazing classic. I was so happy when Square announced a full remake to this game, we never got the original release back in the snes days, so this is something i was really looking forward to. The great part is that it still feels like snes game with all updated graphics, UI, voice acting, and remastered music. This game looks beautiful and plays great, looking forward to more remakes like this from Square in the future.
