There's just something about Camelot games for me. It's probably mostly Sakuraba's music, but the characters and story of Golden Sun totally won me over as a child, and the combat + class mechanics centered around Djinn were so refreshing and interesting. I wanted to know every little secret about Golden Sun, and spent many hours just roaming around the map to make sure I had found them all. I convinced my entire friend group to get the game, and finishing the Deadbeard fight with my friends looking on is one of my fondest gaming memories.

I can't leave this review without mentioning one of the most effective cliffhangers of all time. Seeing that "To Be Continued" made my heart drop, and the wait for The Lost Age to come out was a LONG one.
