[Series] Secret of Mana

The Seiken Densetsu Series of Games originally began in 1987, but after Square was almost in financial ruin, they cancelled the project and encouraged people that placed advanced orders for the game to buy Final Fantasy . Once Square had a better reputation as a game developer, they restarted the project. Koichi Ishii has been the lead game designer and/or producer of every game in the Seiken Densetsu series. He has also supervised the new games that have the Seiken Densetsu trademark.

This game is based on Mana trees, Mana Beasts, people consuming mana to the point where it will vanish, antagonists trying to revive a mana fortress or obtain the Mana sword for themselves, and the Sword of Mana (The Holy Sword). A hero will be summoned to take on the evil.

The series mascot is the rabite, a small rabbitt-like creature with a cottontail and jumps around the board attacking the hero's party. Another Mascot is Flammie, a Mana Dragon used to fly the party to remote areas. Watts the blacksmith has been in every game in the series.
