That one was fun! You can really see the step up from the first game, and what aspects went on to influence the genre. Expanding the party to three characters definitely helped give the game more flavour, even if the writing isn't anything special. I don't expect more from what was originally a NES game, though, so that's fine. The Switch version added some nice quality of life, though we once again lost the amazing spritework from the SNES remakes. Ah well. I still had a good time with this one, it's worth a look if you enjoy retro RPGs and videogame history.
