This was my first video game RPG that I ever played. Also was the first the one that I ever completed. I was used to playing D and D with my friends in the early '80s until the mid .80s. Then, unfortunately for me but fortunately for the video game industry, I moved away from them. So no more TTRPG. My mom bought me a Nintendo that Christmas with this game, known to me as Dragon Warrior, Legend of Zelda (gold cartridge), Defenders of the Crown and, of course, Super Mario Bros 3. I played Dragon Warrior first and fell madly in love with it. Of course I played the other games but I kept coming back to this one. Eventually I acquired a PC and I have been hooked on CRPGs ever since. I would love for this game to get the GOG treatment.

This was my introduction to RPGs. I remember my older brother, my father, and myself all creating save files on our NES cart and working away to get to the ending. They gave up after a while but I persevered...and eventually wiped out their saves so I could replay the game again and again. The game that started one of the biggest RPG franchises of all time, it absolutely deserves to be part of the GOG Preservation Program.

Secret of Mana
Secret of ManaInitially released in Japan in 1993, Secret of Mana took the world by storm with its innovative real-time battle system and gorgeously rendered world. It continues to stand out among other action RPGs for its seamless gameplay that anyone from beginner to veteran can enjoy. One of the most memorable elements of the Mana series is the Ring Command menu system. With the single press of a button, a ring-shaped menu appears on the screen, where players can use items, change weapons, and do a variety of other actions without needing to switch screens. This Ring Command menu system for which the Mana series is so well known was first introduced in Secret of Mana and has since appeared in most games in the series. Play as Randi and his two companions, Primm and Popoi, as they adventure all around the world. At the center of our epic story is the mystical power of Mana. Battle the empire in its quest for control of Mana. Befriend the eight elementals who wield the forces of nature itself. Numerous encounters await at every turn.
