Item Condition

Complete in box: the cartridge, the manual and the box, all original; anything beyond that is included only if you can see it in the photos. The photos are of this exact copy — look them over closely for its condition, packaging and details. Every cartridge's shell, label and board are checked for authenticity when it comes into the store, and it's tested before it's listed. It ships in a collector's bag or a hard plastic case.

Item Description

It starts in a gladiator pit. A nameless slave fights monsters for the Dark Lord's amusement, hears a dying friend named Willy whisper a secret about the Mana Tree, and breaks out of the castle with a mission he barely understands: find the girl with the pendant, and keep the power of Mana out of the wrong hands. Square's Final Fantasy Adventure opens with more drama than most Game Boy games manage in their entire running time, and it only builds from there.

This is the game that launched the Mana series. Released in Japan as Seiken Densetsu and directed by Koichi Ishii, it plays as a real-time action RPG in the vein of The Legend of Zelda, with Final Fantasy touches sprinkled throughout: chocobos, a curse that turns you into a Moogle, level-ups and a hero who grows stronger with every fight. Combat is all about timing, as a power gauge refills between swings and rewards patient players with stronger attacks.

Every weapon earns its place. Axes chop down trees, the morning star smashes rocks and the sickle clears away grass, so your arsenal doubles as a set of keys to the world map. Along the way the hero joins forces with a rotating cast of companions, including the former Gemma Knight Bogard and Watts, the dwarf smith who would go on to turn up in later Mana games, and confronts the Dark Lord and his sinister advisor Julius in a story that does not shy away from loss.

Kenji Ito's score gives the adventure a sweeping, heroic sound on modest hardware. Square later remade the game twice, as Sword of Mana on the Game Boy Advance and Adventures of Mana for newer platforms, but the original cartridge has a lean, focused intensity the remakes never quite reproduced. If Secret of Mana is where you fell for the series, this is the portable origin story that came first.
