Wonderboy Reboot

How have I not seen this until now!? My childhood, right here:

Interesting to see. I played 3 or 4 wonderboy games when I was a kid.

I was addicted to 'Wonder Boy 3: Monster's Lair' in the Arcade as a kid. Even owned the Genesis version and never realized until later it had some levels missing. Good memories.

This game looks like a lot of fun. Will try to look out for it.

Uh. That's not really a reboot, it's more like a straight sequel!
It's almost exactly as it was 25 years ago! I played 2 and 3 on Master System, then Wonderboy 5 on Genesis/Megadrive, back then I really enjoyed it because it was halfway between platformer and action-RPG, it was quite innovative.
I'm not into retro-gaming myself, so I don't really care about replaying the same kind of game I used to (thus also most of my opinions about FF7:R), so I'll pass.

Monster World on the Mega Drive was my favourite. I sunk so many hours into this, Gain Ground and Sonic 2 back in the day.
