Makai Toushi SaGa - Act III

 

The climb continues with the highest reaches of the Tower of Babel. This is still a good game, but I'm feeling the age of it here in 2025. Look at how vibrant the Wonderswan Color is, though. I wish there were more things to play on this system.

Next up is World 3, the Sky. Most interesting world, with the best artwork. Weird thing is that there are more world levels above the sky, including a large modern city. SaGa is weird.

Someone out there may be wondering: What is Makai Toushi SaGa? It's a colorized remake of the very first SaGa game, which we in the U.S. know as Final Fantasy Legend. Like most Wonderswan Color remakes of 8-bit classic RPGs, it's different enough from the original to check out.

WSC doesn't get enough credit, and I like it more than Game Boy Advance in terms of visuals and sound. Everything is sharper and smoother and the contrast is better. Also the system was developed by Gunpei Yokoi's company Koto Laboratory which is a huge pedigree. The problem is that the West didn't get this system at all, so it was nothing more than a blip on most people's radar here.

UNTIL NOW.

...no, it'll still be a blip. I'm just some guy.
