First to review this game ^^

Anyway, Lufia is one of the best Role-Playing Games you can get. No ifs, ands, ors, or buts. If you're over 9 years of age, you'll find this game a TON of fun. My mom would do the games while we watched and teach me and my siblings to play. Any other moms or dads out there reading this, do the same.

Graphics: 8
The graphics weren't absolutely the best[hence no 10] but they were really good. The battle scenes are nice, and the characters don't look really choppy. It's no fancy-shmancy graphics, but they're still really good.

Sound: 9
Sound was really great =D It set the mood. If you were to be blindfolded and have the monitor turned off (or, if you have the system, the TV) you could tell if you were in a town, overworld, or a dungeon. It was very clear and sounded excellent.

Gameplay: 10
This game has to be one of the best in terms of puzzles (other than Shadowgate, of course.) You have so much you can do and train on. The plot is also great. You actually have to collect some items that are NEEDED. You don't just say, "oh well, I don't absolutely need that item, it just gets me more EXP," you need the item to go further in the game.

Overall: 10
You will ABSOLUTELY LOVE this game if you can get past the first town or so :) Or, even better, if you can find the original game and a working system, it would blow your mind.

Thanks for reading, hope you try this game.
