Hey all I'm running a poll where we take two games from the same genre, put them head to head and decide which of the two deserves the #1 spot. The other? swift execution lol. So tell me, WHO'S GOTTA GO?!
Up first we have the amazing game Secret of Mana! originally released on Super Nintendo in 1993.
GOOD AND EVIL BATTLE FOR A YOUNG WARRIOR'S HEART.
There is one force in the universe that keeps good and evil in per-fect balance. It is called the tree of Mana. But a magic sword has tricked a young warrior into upsetting this balance, spreading evil throughout the land.
Thus, the warrior must undertake a dangerous joumey to find the seeds of the Mana tree which have been hidden for centuries. Only then can perfect harmony be restored.
In this incredible adventure, things are not as they seem. Magic swords release evil as well as fight it. Treasure chests hold booby traps. Monsters are friends and friends are enemies. Potions give power, black magic takes it away. Dragons fly, weapons change.
It's a world tuned upside down that you must help the warrior make right. And the only way to succeed is to solve the Secret of Mana.
And let's not forget the challenger, Released in 1994 on Sega Genesis/MD we have Beyond Oasis!
THE ULTIMATE ADVENTURE AWAITS!
On the mystical island of Oasis, Prince Ali embarks on a crusade against evil. The warrior prince must unleash the powers of the four Wild Spirits to stop the resurrection of a ruthless sorcerer and save the empire!As Ali, you can call on the powers of the four wild spirits to battle the evil minions of Agito. Fight off enemies with Ali's weapons, punches and kicks... or dig deeper to discover the Hidden Super Moves... A Sega first!!! Flip switches, trigger plates, and use what's left of your brain to solve mind boggling puzzles that lead to Huge Bosses... like the Fire-breathing Red Dragon!!!
WHICH ONE WILL COME OUT ON TOP?! LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!
