Legend of Mana: How To Unlock Abilities
The peculiar leveling and character upgrade methods in Legend of Mana are well-known. While many consider this to be among the best games in the Mana installment, it is not a simple game to master. One of the most distinctive and difficult systems is the abilities approach.
Although Legend of Mana was originally released for the SNES, it is now available in the Collection of Mana for Nintendo Switch players. This 21-year-old game will provide players with a unique story, engaging missions, perhaps one of the most perplexing ability systems ever devised.

Players can use abilities to move around and can enable up to two abilities on each character at once. These could be used in battle as well as to access special movements for your character’s weapons.

Since March 2021, I've worn two hats at Spiel Times: a writer and a Managing Editor. In my writing role, I've earned recognition from Wikipedia and Nev Schulman (Catfish TV Show host) for my insightful analysis and engaging narrative style. I'm passionate about all things gaming, with a keen eye for detail and a knack for uncovering hidden secrets within games. My gaming journey began at a young age, captivated by titles like Resident Evil and Tomb Raider. Today, I enjoy exploring open-world RPGs and MMORPGs, consumed by their lore and crafting theories about their narratives. I'm also drawn to the suspenseful atmosphere of horror games and the intricate narratives of crime-themed titles, bringing a unique perspective to my writing. Beyond gaming, I have a fascination with anything unexplained and chilling, a passion that often spills over into my exploration of horror games. When I'm not engrossed in a virtual world, you can find me curled up and spending time with my adorable doggy sidekick, Teemo. As Managing Editor, I'm committed to fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for our writing team. I communicate openly with my team members, addressing any content-related issues and providing guidance to help them excel.
