As one of the last Squaresoft games on the SFC, they go all out with an incredible spritework and animation.

This is just me talking out of my ass but I believe Octopath Traveler took inspiration in this game with how it's structured. You get to play with 3 main characters and those 3 main characters cross paths with each other as you get to see the story from different perspectives.

What differentiates this game from the others is the magic system, or in this case, the Mantra System. This mantra system gives you the liberty of creating the magic spells you want my entering up to six characters. Of course, as this was played with a fan translation, it was probably a different experience if you play the game in japanese.

Special mention goes the incredible OST, with a lot of diverse tracks and bangers, this a game that makes me sad it was never localized. Maybe one day.
