Game Review

When we prepared to travel on a new continent (and just when the story was so interesting), the game end. We was thinking that the game was over there, but more later we understand that a great and huge storyline can't make fully in a cartridge. So...

Since this spot begins this new Golden Sun! The characters, the map, and of course the story are the same than the previous game, because this game it's exactly the second part of this story that was released in our consoles since one year ago. And we can load our characters of the first game on The Lost Age using the Cable Link or inserting a password that we obtained on the previous part.

If you don't remember (or if you haven't heard this game before), I will explain how is the game. This RPG saga it's one of the best games that exist on this genre. Reasons: The huge story, with some turns and surprises that you can follow, and that we can be in front on our Game Boy Advance screen while we travel over the world where take place the adventure. His appearance reflects a 2D graphics when we explore the map, villages and other places, and when we fight against monsters, we can see 3D emulations with great visual effects!

How to play this game? Like the other classic RPG games: talk, explore, use items, resolve puzzles, pick up treasures, and fight. The turned combats can realize choosing actions that you want to make each time that you have your turn. Attack, defense, use spells, items or escape are common actions on the classic RPG's. But between this actions exists an special command called "Djinn", where next I will explain how is this action.

The Djinns are little creatures with a great power that make so easily the combats. Using the Djinns inside (or outside) the combats, you prepare the Djinns to use inside the combats. When you are inside a combat, you can use them using a new command called "Invoke". This command make that the attacks will be so powerful.

The Djinn selection would be hard. Depending the Djinn type (water, fire, wind or earth) and the character status, we will obtain changes on the abilities and the spells, including the class of the character, transforming our character radically. Take into account that each hero can carry some Djinns, so the possibilities are unlimited.

In short, Golden Sun - The Lost Age it's a cool game with a great story that you must to follow to watch the end of it. If you have played the first game, Golden Sun, buy The Lost Age version. If you haven't played the previous one, buy Golden Sun before play The Lost Age, because (as you have read), The Lost Age version it's a continuation of the previous game, Golden Sun.
