Illusion of Gaia

Post by SarahKik »

I played this game so much as a kid... but never got very far. I'd always inevitably get stuck somewhere and I could never figure it out. It wasn't until I played the game probably in my 20's that I actually played it all the way through! Such a fun game though, with some interesting mechanics. You used a magic force/magnet ability to pull things and solve puzzles, and eventually you can switch between your normal character and a knight. If anyone has an emulator I highly recommend!

(edit: oops my bad, this should be in 16bit!)

I need to play this game sometime! I remember seeing it at my local game store when I was a kid. I moved the topic to the 16-bit section so it's all good. :) So it's an action adventure game sort of like The Legend of Zelda series? I shall add this to my growing list of RPGs to play!

Illusion of Gaia is a real classic game. It's an action-adventure and RPG blend. You can't beat the skill for being one of the elements. It's a game to catch up with.

I wish I had a Super Nintendo growing up to possibly get a copy lol. But I was a Sega kid, I love both the Genesis and SNES but I prefer the Genesis. Well since I have a flash cart for my SNES now, I can give this one a go!
