An uncharacteristic element for that time is that Trials of Mana gives you six playable characters to choose from, and although it only moderately increases the replay value of the game it’s nice to have a bit of player choice up front. The plot/writing in the game is very “early nineties” in that plotlines aren’t as complex or multi-layered as we now experience in our games, but to me that’s part of the charm – a bit like how some old action, fantasy and sci-fi movies keep their charm exactly because their characters are so recognizable and defined. It doesn’t look as breathtaking as the recent Resident Evil or Final Fantasy remakes, but for a Switch title this is an impressive RPG that feels right at home on the platform. It’s essentially the same game as before, but all of the locations, buildings and characters have now been realized in 3D. For many, this will be the first time they’re playing the game, which is a different kind of “remake” experience than we had with Secret of Mana or the recent Final Fantasy VII.įor those familiar with the SNES original, the 3D visuals will quite literally bring a new dimension to the game. Unlike Secret of Mana, which was remade in 2018, the original Trials of Mana (or Seiken Densetsu 3) was never released in the West, which makes this an especially interesting release for those who never delved into the realm of imported games.
