What stands out in my memory the most is the part where you're stuck in a cave with nowhere to go, and you have to pay attention to your character and notice that there's a place where his hair is blowing in a breeze. Then you check the wall and find the hidden passage to move forward.

The most memorable part for me, as a young teenager, was the raft story section with the girl. Back then, I hadn't discovered caffeine, I'd never taken drugs before or drank alcohol. I didn't have any semblance of ADHD. Didn't really have any worries, or concerns, or responsibilities in life. There was no internet or social media ruining everyone's minds... so I remember really enjoying the story sections and that one was excellent. I just really got tuned into it and wondering what was going to happen to us.

Very fond memories of this hidden gem of a game.
@markkatain78912 жыл бұрын
I guess my experience with this is different than most. This game came out when I was in 5th grade, and I remember watching a friend play it and it really didn't grab my attention- at that time, I was into games like Donkey Kong Country, Ninja Gaiden, Mortal Kombat II, Killer Instinct, Mega Man, etc.- but the music (specifically Itori town theme) was something I never forgot. One year ago, December 2020, I couldn't get the music out of my head so I decided to turn it on just to listen to the music that I remembered, and then I wanted to keep going, and eventually ended up playing through it with a guide. I was so hooked in to the gameplay and music that hours felt like seconds! My most memorable moment from the game was actually beating the final boss and watching the ending. I was floored! The music, emotion, and overall experience stuck with me for days after. I had never played RPG's of any type before this (unless you count Zelda II on NES) and this gem introduced me to Terranigma, my absolute favorite game on SNES and probably top 5 of all time. This was the game that turned me into a new JRPG fan and I have played and completed almost all of the "big ones" (Chrono Trigger, Earthbound, Final Fantasy 4-6, Secret of Mana, Super Mario RPG, and many, many others) from that era- and it was all because of this awesome game. Excellent review as always!

As a kid I barely understood the story and thought the game difficult. Replayed as an adult I found the story to be one of the most ambitious and meaningful of any video game, focusing on complex themes of human nature and the world. There are long sections with minimal gameplay but a lot of meaning, and even though you only play as Will and see things from his perspective, the journeys of the characters around will are just as meaningful. And the game being far easier than I expected.

There were two parts that really stuck with me above all others in how dark they were compared to anything else on SNES at the time. First, fairly early on, when you go to the back streets of a down and stumble across human trafficking. Even today I can't think of many games that touch such a topic. Secondly, as a few folks have mentioned, was the Russian Glass/Roulette sequence. People gambling with their lives on the line felt far more disturbing than fighting for it. The game got dark. Spoilers Couple those things with cannibals, Jeweler Gem's reveal and its connection to Soul Blazer (and that trafficking subplot), and how in the ending, all of that harsh experience is forgotten in how the timeline is reset... the suffering that saved the world to go unknown... it was a heavy game for being so colorful and adventurous.

If I recall at the time the ESRB still hadn't been created yet, and that's quite apparent if you really analyze the game. Will is what? A Teenager? Let's have a teenager play Russian Roulette with Poison milkshakes! You know, fun for the whole family! Or how about the Child Slavery Ring, that if you want all of the Red Jewels in the game, you have to rat out an escaped child slave's location to the slave traders? Or what about the part where you BURN A MAN ALIVE. I didn't really think much of it as a kid, but as a grown up I'm legitimately surprised this game wasn't censored or even came out here at all

The area just before it where you were flipping sides on the flying level was memorable too, that + Mu are what made the game start standing out for me back then.

The best aspects of "Illusion of Time" is that you play as a total of three different characters along the storyline and each of them has his own skills and abilitys for fighting and exploring the world and dungeons. The best moments I had at the "Ankor Watt" dungeon, the city and the dungeon with the big mushrooms, the very end of the game of course and if you´re able to manage to get all the secret orbs to get acces to the secret world dungeon. ^^

I love this game... but between this, Terranigma and Alundra... I'd say Alundra is the clear winner for me. I have trouble deciding which is better between Terranigma and Illusion of Gaia though. Overal the story starts out faster and there's actually a party of characters throughout the game. Basically a proper main cast. For Terranigma, for most part it's just Ark meeting new people, creatures, etc everywhere he goes as he progresses along. It's not until later in the game that a few other characters also get a bit more involved. Still, the storytelling in this game is heavier overal and much more impactful. There's a few real tearjerker moments, even when played today. In terms of story I'd have to give a slight edge to Terranigma, but in terms of gameplay I'd have to give a slight edge to Illusion of Gaia. I love puzzles in my games and Illusion of Gaia has plenty of good ones. Terranigma focuses more on action combat. As for the most memorable aspect of Illusion of Gaia... for me it was being adrift at sea. I just really liked it. The relationship between Will and Kara developing while also being stuck on a raft that's just floating somewhere. Easily one of the best bonding moments between characters in gaming, IMO. And I'm usually not a fan of romance since it's usually done poorly. I hate the romances in FFVIII and FFX with a passion, for example.
