When the remake was announced in a direct, I immediatly dug out my gameboy and my battered copy of this game. I replayed it for the first time in a long time and felt so emotional while I did, I honestly don't entirely know why, but this game has and still does mean a lot to me.
The map loading in squares made me get lost a lot, the puzzles confused me and would have me stuck for days, but as a kid that all made it feel weirdly magical somehow, so, seeing a remake trailer made me nearly tear up and desperately replay the game that I remembered. It held up I think, but the magic wasn't magic anymore, it was nostalgia, but I don't think that changed the experiance.
