Rating: - excellent match to the game
Just by itself the artwork and the layout of this book is exceptional.
The walkthrough is given in a loose story format(There are a couple of different ways one of the characters can be introduced,) with all the specs on the creatures and bosses and seed palaces in the back.
In the higher levels some of the orb chests can be easy to miss and the book has helpful land maps, weapon and creature information. I also like the way the major bosses and mana palace creatures are given their own introductions at the end of each chapter.
I wish every guide was as nice as this one.
Rating: - Wonderful!!
I wish guides for RPG's were still written like this!! It doesn't give away every conceivable tid-bit of info; it actually makes you think in order to figure those things out. It's very well written and I actually found it fun to read without playing the game, like a good book if you will. The bestiary was very helpful too. Buy this; you won't be disappointed unless you like your guides to absolutely flesh-out your games (which kind of ruins the fun for me).
Rating: - Good guide but not for THAT much money!
You must be crazy to think I'd pay more money for the GUIDE when the GAME goes for cheaper! I'm not paying nearly fifty dollars for a book (and I think I saw it reach seventy-five) when the game I could buy for nearly have the price of the maximum amount listed here! I'd rather head over to Ebay where the average SOM guide ranges from ten to twenty dollars. Don't buy any of these guides here.
As far as I can see this guide is a great guide and you'll more than likely need it for this incredible game. It's easy to get lost in the game and the detailed maps help out a lot. So if you really do need a guide for Secret of Mana then get this one! But please DO NOT buy it here! Find it cheaper!
Rating: - whats wrong with it?????????
How can anybody even diss this guide it is like a novel and players guide for the greatest game ever i don't see what more you can ask for its the best detailed pictures enemy descriptions and a very helpful walkthrough i don,t see what the problem is if this review was out of ten i would give it an eleven heres a little tip for everyone who has sense buy this book while you still can som is the best bye :)
Rating: - Okay if you really need the help...
I do not own this book but I saw it at a friend's house. It is useless unless you are really desperate for some help, which should not happen. It is always better to explore the game on your own! Using guides such as this ruin the game fun and the challenges Square wanted to put you through.
