1. INTRODUCTION
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Legend of Mana is one of the sequels to the ever-legendary and addictive
Secret of Mana for the SNES. This is actually part 4 of the series (Secret
of Mana was part 2, and square never brought out part 3 to the US). It
plays somewhat the same, but there are drastic changes. One of them is the
battle system. The battle system is different from the one present in Secret
of Mana, which may or may not turn off players of Secret of Mana. I know of
some people who hate it, and some who love the battle system. I fall into
the latter category. :)
Otherwise, Legend of Mana is a wonderful game, and a damn good RPG. Also,
I know of some of you who know me and are saying, "Hey! I thought you didn't
like RPGs!" Well, to tell you the truth, I don't like a lot of RPGs, or
at least the turn-based ones (i.e Grandia or FF8), but I do love real-time
RPGs (i.e Zelda, Legend of Mana, Brave Fencer Musashi). And for that reason,
I love Legend of Mana. It's a great game, and I suggest you buy it if you
have not done so.
Legend of Mana is, so far, the best RPG of the year, bar none. Legend of Mana,
by Squaresoft no doubt, is an awesome RPG. I enjoyed it thouroughly, and
I bet anyone who likes RPGs or even good games, will fall in love with
Legend of Mana. Even though the graphics are 2D, they are still amazing,
and are along the lines of Saga Frontier 2 or something like that. They
are some of the most beautiful graphics I've seen in a game, especially in
the RPG category. Sound-wise, Legend of Mana is great. Legend of Mana has
one of the best soundtracks for an RPG ever, IMHO. Legend of Mana's soundtrack
contains one of the best musical scores ever, and is up to par with
the Final Fantasy series. Legend of Mana, even though it's one of the
sequels to Secret of Mana, does not play on like Secret of Mana at all.
Legend of Mana's music isn't really at like Secret of Mana's music at all,
but that really doesn't matter to me at all. The music and overall sound
in Legend of Mana is awesome, and you will be awe-struck by the sheer
magnificence that is Legend of Mana.

5. Walkthrough
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
This is a walkthrough for the events in Legend of Mana. Please note that
these events DO NOT have to be played in this order, but this is the way
I played them, so therefore, that is how my Walkthrough is going to be,
and that's the way I like it. :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOME
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic Rundown:
- Leave Home
- Get Colorblocks from Sproutling
- Build Domina
- Check out Encyclopedias
- Go to the Church
- Get Encyclopedia from the Reverend
- Head over to the Domina Marketplace
- Speak with Niccolo
- Agree to take him with you
- Begin "Niccolo's Business Unusual"
After selecting your character (male or female, it makes no difference to
the game or the outcome, story, or ending), head downstairs. Open the
chest in this room to get 100 Lucre. The back room is a library that contains
plenty of useful information for your adventure. When you are ready, exit
your house.
Run up to the Sproutling, and he'll speak to you, and give you your first
artifact: Colorblocks. This artifact will create the city of Domina.
Now run past the Sproutling, and onto the World Map.
Select the Colorblocks Artifact, and build Domina somewhere. Now head into
the city of Domina. Once you enter Domina, you will encounter a strange man.
Follow him into the bar straight ahead. Talk to him and the girl, Rachel.
Protect her, and she'll be thankful afterwards. Leave the bar, and head into
the nearby house. Here you'll find someone jumping up and down. Talk to them,
and you will recieve the Encyclopedia. Then leave and go to the nearby
store and buy some type of Armor, like the MenosHGlove.
Go to the Hotel to find Miss Yuki in the main lobby. Head to the back room
to find some Bird Meat. Leave the hotel (save your game first though), then
head north to the Church. Go inside the church, and you will meet Reverend
Nouville. She'll inform you on almost anything, and she'll give you
the Produce Encyclopedia. Here's how to get it:
- First select "Ask About the Town"
- Then "Townsmen"
- Then "Others"
- Then "Meimei"
Now ask her about battles and how to use 2P, and you will learn about the
Abandoned House. Once this is done, leave the church. Go back south, and
into The Marketplace. Here you'll find a fortune teller at the lower-
right of the screen, and a fat cat in the middle of the market. This
is Niccole. Let him join you to start the event, "Nic's Business".
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NICCOLO'S BUSINESS UNUSUAL
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic Rundown:
- Go to Teapo's House
- Get AF: "Wheel" from Niccolo
- Build Luon Highway
- Head over to Luon Highway
- Take Lower route first
- Talk to Gaeus
- Go back
- Take Upper path now
- Work your way to the end of the path
- Fight boss
After letting Niccolo join you, go back to the house where you met Teapo
(where you got the Equipment Encylopedia). On the way there, you will
encounter Elazul. He'll want to join you as well. But you can only have
one person with you at a time (at least now), so refuse, and continue on.
Note: You can always find Elazul at the bar...
Niccole will talk to them, and he'll try to sell it to them for 50,000 Lucre!
They won't buy it of course, so he'll give it to you for free. Now you have
the artifact Wheel.
Exit to the World Map, and select the Wheel and create Luon Highway. Go to
it. Make sure you have at least one Special Technique equipped, then
continue forward. You will speak to Duelle, and he'll tell you all about
battles. Once this is done, keep going forward until you reach the Fork
in the road. Along the way you will battle enemies. Kill them to release
crystals that bring your HP up gradually.
At the fork, you will meet Daena and find a save statue. Take the lower route.
Follow the road past the pink guy at the bottom, who will warp you to the
beginning of Luon Highway if you talk to him. Along the way you will find
a chest with Odd Meat. Go all the way to the end of the road until you reach
Gaeus, a giant stone god. Talk to him and he'll tell you about a tree near
your house. Now go back to the fork in the road and take the upper path.
Once again, make your way to the end of the road, killing any enemies along
the way. At the end you will encounter two thieves who want your money.
Select "give them candy", and they'll get pissed and summon their boss
to attack you. This is the first boss fight of the game, and it's a damn
easy one too. Just keep on attacking him, and dodge his attacks every so
often. After a while, he'll freeze up and give you free shots momentarily.
This is the time to use your Special Techniques, so use them on him when
your Technique bar is full.
After defeating him, grab all of the crystals, and Niccole will give you
the Artifact (AF): Medallion and the Artifact (AF): Flame. This concludes
Nic's Business. But before you start, return to your home, go west of your
house, and then go south to find weeds. Kill them to allow a giant tree
to grow. Talk to him, and he'll say that he will grow produce for you.
All you have to do is give him seeds. Give him some seeds, then leave
this area.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLAME OF HOPE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic Rundown:
- Build Gato Grottoes and Jungle
- Go to Gato Grottoes to start "Flame of Hope"
- Find hurt Sproutling
- After finding him, he'll leave again
- Go to the Dungeon
- Follow the green leaves to find him at the top of the Mountain
- Get AF: "Ancient Tablet" and AF: "Torch of Coral"
Back at your house, exit to the World Map, and use both of your new Artifacts
(AF: Flame and AF: Medallion) to create Gato Grottoes and Jungle. Go to Gato
Grottoes and head to the east and up north to the top of the mountain.
At the top you will find a hurt Sproutling, and they will try to cure him.
He'll run away, and this will start the event, "Flame of Hope".
Your goal is to capture the illusive shape-shifter, and help the Sproutling.
But first you have to catch him. He'll run away. Go back south, then west
and north again to find the Temple of Healing. Search the rooms here to find
some items. Now just keep on searching this entire area (Gato Grottoes)
until you find the Sproutling. He's usually either in the Temple of Healing
or the area where you first found him, on the cliff. After a while, you
will find him in the Temple, and he'll run away. After a bit, return to the
Temple to find a nun who's been hurt by the Sproutling.
Now return to the cliff where you first found him, and someone will try to
heal him. He'll run away again. Leave, and wait a bit. Now go back to the
cliff, and watch a major turn of events. After this happens, leave this area,
and head south all the way to the bottom of the mountain.
Go left from where you entered, and you should see some green leaves on
the ground. Follow these leaves through caves and such, until you reach
the top of the mountain again, but this time, on the west side. You'll
find the Sproutling, and someone healing him. After the person leaves,
the detective will show up. He'll thank you, and give you the AF: Ancient
Tablet, and the AF: Torch of Coral.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
MANA ORCHARDS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic Rundown:
- Head back Home
- Go south
- Talk to the Tree
- Take whatever Produce you've grown
- Feed him more seeds
- Leave this area
Okay, now return to where you first met the giant tree, near your house.
By this time, some produce should've been grown by now. Take some and place
it into the nearby box. After this, the tree will tell you to feed him some
more seeds, and this will conclude the event, "Mana Orchards".
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
HUNTIN' DU'CATE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic Rundown:
- Enter Jungle
- Let strange man cast a spell on you
- Find one of the two hunters
- Join them
- Follow them when they run away
- Make your way into "Du'Cate's Territory"
- And eventually into "Spring of the Beasts"
- Fight Boss fight: Du'Cate
- Get 500 Lucre
- Get AF: "Sand Rose"
Use the Medallion to create the Jungle. Enter the Jungle, and you'll over-
hear a conversation between Sotherbee and two others. He'll tell them about
Du'Cate tails, and that they are worth a lot of dough. Go and speak with
him and he'll ask you to hunt down the elusive Du'Cate.
