Game modes:Single player, Co-operative, Multiplayer
Story:While incorporating action role-playing game elements from the three games which preceded it, Legend of Mana has its own distinct style of gameplay. Most notably, it gives the player the ability to shape the game's world of Fa'Diel according to his or her desires, a system which was incorporated through the use of "artifacts," which are gained as the player progresses through the game. The player uses the artifacts to create different towns, dungeons, etc., called "Lands", to venture to and explore. This creates a non-linear gameplay, since the game is driven by a series of what would be considered side-quests in other games. Legend of Mana features three different plots which can occur simultaneously, and which do not necessarily need to be completed for the player to finish the game. Legend of Mana was a financial success in Japan. While the game garnered considerable praise for its graphics and presentation, many critics and fans were turned off by the game's lack of a main storyline.Show more

Another diamond created by squaresoft, one of the few RPG's that caught my interest and even with the language barrier i could really enjoy this game with nice animations, fun pet/golem builds, equip crafting/enhancing and nice boss fights with killer BGM.

such a great game! having a co op game in a weird way for a ps1 was fantastic! hands down i beaten the game so long time ago and still remember how everything entwine with each other how the character got to know one another each dungeon/town you leave on the map of your choosing of location was interesting. no doubt i would preserve this game if anything. i love how you can level up any weapons as long you have them equipped and start beating on monsters to level up the weapons and the character lol. every weapon was unique and everytime you level up a weapon that you have equipped gives you uniques skills that you can equip and skill slot them to the style of play you want. hands down a must try classic game. the nintendo ds version of mana games is gonna be different but with the same world and concept. fighting the same monster types in the mana series never gonna change i mean i haven't played any of the new ones after the ps2 mana game came out lol.

Neverwinter Nights 2
Neverwinter Nights 2Neverwinter Nights 2 (NWN2) is a computer role-playing game set in the fantasy world of the Forgotten Realms, one of the popular campaign settings of Dungeons and Dragons. It takes the player from the tiniest of villages into a sweeping tale of danger and war, chronicling their rise from a peasant to a full-fledged hero of the Realms, defending it against one of the greatest threats of the age. Build a character that suits your style of play - good or evil, chaotic or lawful, with any number of skills, feats and professions available at the click of a button. Whether lobbing fireballs and researching forgotten spells as a powerful Wizard, hacking a trail through legions of orcs as a Fighter armed only with a battle axe and your courage, or taking on the role of a Rogue that can slip into the shadows at a moment's notice and take the purse from even the most perceptive of guardsmen. Choose your alignment, your allies, your companions, and how you want your character to develop... design the character you want, role-play the way you want, and carry the battle to the enemy. The design aspects of Neverwinter Nights 2 don't stop there, however. Past the campaign included with the game itself, Neverwinter Nights 2 also gives you all the tools you need to build your own modules, campaigns, and adventures for your friends - move buildings, terrain, script encounters, write dialogues, create quests and items - everything you need to create an epic adventure of your own is included in the toolset for you and any other worldbuilder to use.

Neverwinter Nights
Neverwinter NightsNeverwinter Nights (NWN) is a third-person role-playing video game and is set in the fantasy world of the Forgotten Realms campaign setting, with the game mechanics based on the Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition rules. The game engine was designed around an internet-based model for running a massively multiplayer online game (MMOG), which would allow end users to host game servers. The intent was to create a potentially infinite massively multiplayer game framework. This game was named after the original Neverwinter Nights online game; the first ever graphical massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), which operated from 1991 to 1997 on AOL.
