A fun game, but it lacks real Mana power.
I wasn't sure what to expect with this game. What I didn't get was a Secret of Mana type game. You have a hometown, get a quest/sidequest from there, and then choose your destination and you are magically there. Then ... Read Full Review

Well.... I at least love playing it......
Although, you have to enjoy dungeon crawling and repetive hack and slash, ah..... the story is a bit boring, because it really never surprises you, although I found the presentation of the story amazing for a ds. (that s... Read Full Review

It's fun hack'n slash, but gets old QUICK.
OOOk here we go! Well, I'll describe the story, but I might include some accidental spoilers. The world of mana is in danger once again due to darkness engulfing the mana tree. The mana Lord is the one to blame, but h... Read Full Review

The graphics are really nice, but what is up with the boring gameplay?! I'm glad I borrowed this game from my cousin....
This game has good graphics. The game play needs a little work cause it's just too simple and too boring. If Square Enix brought in some awesome Final Fantasy Style summons or spells and gave us more eye candy, then mayb... Read Full Review

Another hack and slash
Children of Mana IS a repetitive game, then again a lot of hack and slashes are. While the story holds true to its predecessors in where one wakes up finding themselves in a town and land being over run by monsters and ... Read Full Review

Not what I expected of a Mana game, but good in its own way.
This game is no way a classic but if you can pick it up for cheap it is worth the purchase, if you like dungeon crawlers. It was not as good as it could have been because it didnt follow the original formula that Secret... Read Full Review

They should have taken some more time on this game. I had really hoped their was going to be a good game.
I had some high hopes for this game. I was really thinking that this was going to be as good and fun as Secret of Mana, but I was wrong again. I really don't know if it's me, but I would have been satisfied with a DS rel... Read Full Review

Children Of Mana Could've Been A Great Game If It Was'nt Becuase Of Its Repetative Gameplay And Boring Customization.
GOOD- Easy combat; 180 magical gems; colourfull graphics; BAD- Rubbish customization; boring story; repetative gameplay; no touch screen involved; rubbish boss battles GAMEPLAY: Thinking that its from Square-Enix i'd... Read Full Review

A Mana game that you might want to try before buying.
Well...I don't want to bash on this installment of the Mana series, but I think I will have to. A big disappointment, especially when you play the other Mana games. Gameplay: Since a lot of the gameplay comes from b... Read Full Review

Good Dungeon Crawler!!!
This game is underrated, but it depends on the type of games you like. If you like Dungeon Crawlers, this game is a must have. It is very similar to the Pokemon Dungeon Mystery: Blue Rescue Team. The graphics and soun... Read Full Review
