| *Loki Laufeyson: Commonly said to be the best Master System game of all, a title it lives up to. It's a great 8-bit semi-[[genre:metroidvania|metrovania]]. Being a //[[game:wonderboy_series|Wonderboy]]// game, it probably has at least three other names it's known by. | *Loki Laufeyson: Commonly said to be the best Master System game of all, a title it lives up to.

| - | *haze: Whenever people fondly remember //[[game:zelda_ii_the_adventure_of_link|Zelda II]]// or //[[game:castlevania_ii_simons_quest|Castlevania II]]//, I recommend to them to play //Wonder Boy III//. It feels like a more polished version of what those games were attempting to do, while also shorter and more concise. None of the excess weight. | + | *haze: Whenever people fondly remember //[[game:zelda_ii_the_adventure_of_link|Zelda II]]// or //[[game:castlevania_ii_simons_quest|Castlevania II]]//, I recommend to them to play //Wonder Boy III//.

| + | *username: I picked up the Sega Ages Wonderboy collection on a whim a few years ago and while I wasn't in love with the earlier games, //Monster's Trap// was pretty excellent. Very odd series progression where you go from a standard platformer to a basic adventure game to a weird scrolling shooter to a very charming [[genre:metroidvania|Metrovania]] but hey, it worked.\\ As odd as it sounds, I ended up playing through the included [[hardware:game_gear|Game Gear]] version over the [[hardware:master_system|SMS]] version as for whatever reason it felt just a bit tighter and a bit more intimate due to the reduced viewing area (the town is a few blocks shorter because of this and I think it helps). | ||
