My first thought when I got this game was, "cool, I just finished the book, I hope this is just like it," which it was, except there are some lame problems in it. Like not getting to walk across the map, and the repeating bosses. The dagger rocks, but everything else sucks! How can a walking stick kill a goblin? Well? Are you going to answer me or now? I am so glad that I did not buy this game. There are two good points, the music and the graphics. That is all. I don't even suggest renting the game, so get a better game, like Golden Sun for GBA. I promise you will like that game instead.
