Children of Mana is a complete disaster of a game with almost nothing worth remembering from the experience.

A enjoyable game for the Mana series fan, but too much of your time spent on leveling up.
Children of Mana, the next Mana game in the series after Sword of Mana, follows the same type story and gameplay as any other game in that series. The story now revolves around sudden outbreaks of Mana, and a person who ... Read Full Review

It is a good game but it is very different from the old mana games.
First of I would like to mention I never played the old mana games when I picked this one up and I did enjoy this one. So I decided to get a hold of the old mana games as well just to see what all the fuss was about. ... Read Full Review

A solid Dungeon Crawler, but a bit of a disappointment for long time fans of the series
The Mana/Seiken Densetsu series is was of the most enduring and worshiped set of rpgs ever made. With a rich track record of gorgeous graphics and streamlined real time battle sequences, it ranks high in many gamers' li... Read Full Review
