Easily one of my favorite childhood SNES games. Must've played it a dozen times at least, and beat it probably two or 3 times. Unfortunately if I remember correctly, just like in Earthbound, there was a point in the game where you could royally screw up your save by doing something the wrong way and then you wouldn't be able to progress any longer. Can't remember what it was exactly, but just like in Earthbound, when I stumbled upon it (after years not playing) I'd often go "Oh right, supposed to do this" (when in fact I WASN'T supposed to) and would break the game which would discourage me from restarting and trying to beat it.
Still, wonderful game - wish it didn't get such an unnecessary bad rap from Mana fans. Couldn't get through the first hour or two of Mana after playing Evermore... I just don't get why they hate it so much, I've never said Mana was bad, but it's no Evermore.
