Unfortunately many people who have only been introduced to EarthBound recently via virtual console have never been able to play through the game alongside the guide. It doesn’t just give the story, but conveys the tone perfectly too. ▼ Here’s the fake newspaper for Onett, the first town. It has gorgeous visuals, 3D clay models of almost every enemy, made-up newspapers and stories for each location, not to mention the hilariously-infamous scratch and sniff cards, great information, secrets, and inside jokes.
The guide for EarthBound is nothing less than a masterpiece, which may sound strange to say about a player’s guide, but it’s earned the accolade. Unlike other guides, this one wasn’t just a bunch of terrible “pro tips” mixed with grainy screenshots. So yeah, I was a bit of a lonely child with a lot of free time, but I did fill up that chart eventually, just like EarthBound filled up my heart.Īnd honestly one of the reasons that I loved the game so much was because of the player’s guide that came bundled with it. It was the first RPG I played as a kid, and I vividly remember making a giant chart with a hundred empty boxes that I’d fill in each time I beat it. While you’re waiting for a SNES Classic, take a look at one of the best player’s guides of all time.ĮarthBound is my favorite game.
