This game is nostalgia at its finest. I grew up playing this game, and even though I could never get past Destiny Islands, I fell in love. Even just those first parts of the game ooze charm, so when I got the chance to get this game through the 1.5+2.5 collection, I had to. I spent 40 hours in my first playthrough, and then another 60 getting the platinum trophy because I fell even more in love with this game than I did when I was a kid. If I could describe everything in this game, from the gameplay to the story, I would describe it as simple, yet clean (get it.) This game overall is an all time great for me, and I will forever appreciate my first playthrough of this game and what it means to me.
