I actually bought a Gameboy advance just to play this game and its sequel in 2003. The game appeared on tv during an advert break on channel 5 and I was absolutely sold on buying the game. I remember having to leave the town of Vale because of what had happened in the sanctum and meeting my very first djin right outside of it. After meeting Ivan, it took me at least a week to level enough to defeat the thieves in the next town over.
Everything is a win when it comes to this game, from the music, to the story, to all the friends, summons and powers you gain along the way. I truly miss this, but refuse to pay a crazy amount for Nintendo's online service just to play games they won't allow me to buy.
The battle system is interesting, the leveling system is complex, it's a bit of Pokémon, but if the HM moves were actually useful. Visuals are great and high level op replay-ability. I have done multiple runs through this game series and can't find anything wrong with it. I would like to have my children play this some day.
This is one of those games that were a very important part of my childhood. And I still play it at least twice a year.
The sistem is simple enough but at the dame time complex enough to adapt to diferent players and playing styles.
I remember the puzzles, the map, the enemies, the story and the music. Is amazing what they did with the music with the limitated bits they had.
I show this game to my little cousins and they love it.
I hope this game could be accesible to more people, specually, in the future.
If we can bring back "Breath of Fire" we can certainly bring back Golden Sun series as well since it's been stuck on the Gameboy Advance for decades. I brought the game back in 2001 and played the sequel or rather part 2, due to the limitation (as it was meant to be an all-in-one game) on a cartridge. Golden Sun is a classic JRPG that shouldn't be forgotten as the game itself is nearing its 25th anniversary. The characters, the story, classic music and most of all, it's a well-crafted JRPG for its time, Camelot Software did a fantastic job on the games if you ask me. Sure, I have a Nintendo Switch and I could play it on the Swith but I hate paying their online services and I refuse to give them money for it because they treated Golden Sun games as if they don't bring them money to the table. Everything I said also applies to Golden Sun: Lost Age

Most of the story and the relationship between the characters are explained through cut-scenes with a considerable length, so knowledge of the prior games is recommended to fully understand the story.

Spider-Man: Edge of TimeSpider-Man: Edge of Time is a follow-up to Shattered Dimensions, and similarly it has more than one Spider-Man takes a starring role. Here, it is the regular, classic "Amazing" Spider-Man, and Spider-Man 2099 – in a story awash in time travel, temporal battles, and Anti-Venom.
The backbone of this story seems to play out more like a Spider-Man 2099 story, since he is the only character truly aware of the happenings in the game, and the changes that both Spider-Men encounter. From the opening, things are bleak for Amazing Spider-Man who begins the game nearly dead, and 2099 is the only one who can help. A new villain Walker Sloan enters the picture with a plan to rebuild the past (from the year 2099) in his image and design, which turns to affect both Spider-Men. From this point, chaos unfolds in typical comic-book fashion with gameplay evenly split between Amazing Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099, with every other level interwoven with the events of one Spidey to the other.Action Science fiction
