Game: earthbound
System: SNES
Producer: ape, HAL
Quick game overview: This overview will just not due this game justice. I suggest you watch this video.Basically your placed in the 90's as a boy hero with physic powers. A meteor hits earth and your destiny to kill evil , have adventures with 3 friends , and fight some really cool and weird bad guys begins.The Mani Mani statue is both an object and an idea in earthbound. A being that embodies evil and brings evil out in others.
The statue first appears in a neighbor's basement. He finds it while digging and says something about making money off of it. The statue doesn't do anything suspicious yet but it does stand out....
Next you see it in the worst place ever "Happy Happy village". This place is run by a cult leader named Mr. Carpenter. He and his cult followers make sure everything in Happy Happy village is painted blue including you. That's right , the enemies in this village attack you with blue paint brushes. When you finally get to fight the carpenter you will see behind him a familiar figure...the Mani Mani statue. Apparently he bought it and used it to control the people of the village.
So the hero doesn't destroy it then... he actually just leaves. You next see the statue in the city of Fourside. It has corrupted an old man and made him kidnap one of your team mates. The trail ends up in the backroom of a cafe. You open the door and you are transported to an imaginary world created by the statue. In this world you can only reach certain places by teleporting ... but you have to talk to guys in Hawaiian shirts to teleport ... and everything is opposite in this world (for real? No.). So you figure out the opposite logic puzzle and eventually fight the statue to break the illusion.
After all the sanctuary bosses are destroyed all that remains is the last boss. But all of a sudden our hero passes out... The hero enters a dream state where he must battle his own demons and memories. The hero reaches the center and in the center he meets his deepest fear incarnate... the Mani Mani statue. You beat it this time and receive a huge freaking boots in all stats.But its really hard to beat because your all alone and the statue uses the same physic moves as you. Kinda like your battling yourself I guess.
So be aware of the Mani Mani statues in your world and remember to fight your own demons ... and Play Earthbound, awesome rpg.
