While I don't think i like this one as much as Imperishable Night, I think Mountain of Faith is a solid Touhou experience. I like the new characters it adds and its ost and atmosphere is one of the best. I'm not the biggest fan of the overpowered bombs by how much power you get compared to older games giving you a set amount but it is just a minor nitpick. My second favorite Touhou so far.

This game is really really good. Much like its predecessor it oozes soul at every turn. Unlike Earthbound I believe that Mother 3 has more of a direction or a message it wants to tell. It is a critique of our current hyperconsumerist society. On top of that is a story about a family having to deal with and cope with tragedy, but the more serious themes don't get in the way at all of the wacky shenanigans the Mother series is known for. On top of all of this the gameplay is great. I think the battle system and the idea of the rolling health bar is awesome. Its never too easy or too difficult, its always the right amount of difficulty. Overall I think Mother 3 is an amazing game that everyone should play at least once
1998
This one is one of my favorites. The fact that this game is all just one big interconnected level is insane especially for 1998. Its setting and atmosphere are amazing. The guns are all fun to use and the monsters are all really cool. There are some rough parts but overall this game is amazing and it doesn't really bring it down for me at all
