Shining Force: The Sword of Hajya is my introduction into the Shining Series, one that is in the shadow of Fire Emblem series. But for a game from a series I barely heard of, it impressed me to see that it worked very hard to push the limits of the Game Gear with a lot of content, amazing graphics, and sound for the little system that could. Sword of Hajya may not be the best experience of the Shining Force series, but it's one that I am glad to experience, even if level 3 spells are a menace to society.
