Ys: The Oath in Felghana

A prime example of how a game can age like a fine wine. This game does everything it sets out to do perfect. Even going back after playing modern Ys games, this game holds up. Addictive, catchy, and heart pumping music that gets you in the mood to hack, slash, jump and launch magic at
