Summary: This is helpful but can be confusing
Review: I think for some areas they needed the maps to be there. Some of the directions were just too confusing. Like it says go this way and that way. But aside from the negative things lets look at the positive. Okay the walkthrough really helps get you through the game. Its boss strategies need a little work, but hell, I was able to beat the game using this guide. I have to recomend it. Its really helpful. If your stuck, i would get this guide. However, ONLY get this guide if your stuck, like me.

Summary: A C- guide
Review: If you are absolutely desperate for a guide and totally lost...go online and find a nice FAQ or walkthrough. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS unless you have no access to the Internet and have money to waste. The walkthrough is very inaccurate, there is NO ABILITIES SECTION, the last third of the book dealing with "information" is useless. It glosses over a great deal of information, and the rest is not mentioned at all. Really, if you're going to buy a guide, buy the Japanese version. It's 20$ more and all, but even if you can't read it at least it has nice pictures, you could probably figure most of it out from them alone.

Summary: Atrocity
Review: If you want a step by step describtion of every event in the game get this guide. If you want to raise monsters, seeds, golems, etc. then don't. The guide only goes over the events in the game and touches on the other stuff only briefly. The other problem is that the guide has you get the final artifact right in the beginning of its chapter 4, this leaves about 35-40 even events to do before it goes over it. I don't know any gamer that would be able to complete the game knowing very well that they could just lay down the Sword of Mana and win the game. The guide was very poorly set up and should have been planned to ensure that the player would get through more than 90% of the game before they could initiate the end game sequence. Don't buy it if you don't have to.

Review: Legend of Mana is ancient in the game world by now, but just in case, I offer this warning: THIS GUIDE IS A JOKE.The maps are chaotic at best, the events poorly explained, and much of the information is downright wrong. It's as if the authors got bored halfway through the book and just filled in the blanks randomly. For instance: "Fights: none. When you leave, you will fight Niccolo." Run, don't walk, to GameFAQS for help on this game.

Summary: Own both game and guide, this is a real review.
Review: Okay, let me start off by saying I have beaten Legend of Mana, and used this exact guide. The guide gives great walkthroughs, nice pictures, cool intro with characters and battle tips explained. Tells you how to do all the events, and has them mapped out in the game perfectly where you don't have to be flipping from one page to another ( which is difficult to do b/c LoM is a non-linear game big time ). Overall I was very satisfied, the only complaint, however, is that the items list in the back of the book is useless, it doesn't even tell you what the stuff does...but if you can see past that little flaw, this is an excelent guide. Would recomend.

Review: This guide is a great book. While playing Square's complex game Legend of Mana,this guide will answer your many questions rangeing from the types of weaknesses that monsters have to the effects of useing materials in creating your own weapons. If theres one guide for a great game that you should get, this is it

Summary: Legend of Mana Guide is pretty good
Review: This guide is good a helping you complete all of the events in a good order, and the flowchart in the front of the book helps out simetimes. On the other hand, the flowchart is flawed and sometimes doesn't work, and some of the events are out of order (one event concerning Daena is placed in the middle of the book, whereas, it should be in the front, which is the only ime in the game that you can complete the event). Although the guide states that there is an ability list, there isn't one at all. If you're not trying to master this game, I suggest you buy this guide. If you're looking to find everything, find a walkthrough at GameFAQs or something.
