I’m born in 1992 so this game is a bit before my time. I started playing it and got completely hooked. It’s an absolutely fantastic game that would still hold up as a quality indie game today.
Music is amazing. Characters and character development is amazing. Story is very good. Combat is genuinely fun instead of feeling like a chore that cuts you off from the game. Art style is amazing.
I was surprised how much quality they could fit onto the SNES back it the day, it’s a really good game and everyone with a potato can ploy it.
Pro tip: Remasters have some UI unpleasantness so it’s best to stick to SNES emu version. I tried the Android and they used some native android font that ruined the immersion a bit. There’s also a tight running section that’s particularly unsuited for the mobile version. SNES is best, as originally intended.
You might want to try Sea of Stars, it is fairly similar and also very good (but quite shorter)
