Even though I love the Mana series, I have to admit that the World of Mana (this game, Children and Dawn of Mana) is so bad that is the reason they didn't make any new mana game until now (that Visions of Mana was announced).

Children of Mana is just plain bad.

Dawn of Mana is terrible and the player end up suffering with the terrible 3D camera.

But this game, is the cherry on the top.

The idea of being a RTS/RPG is great. At first I liked how refreshing it was (and I've never played a RTS before and the idea was interesting) but soon I got bored, annoyed and so mad with the gameplay that I end up using cheats to finish it.

The AI routing is terrible, the missions start taking too long to finish them and you controls are terrible (and I played with an emulator).

I'm only giving 2 starts since I liked the first half of it and the story/OST aren't that bad.
