• 90Pure NintendoUnlike many remakes glutting the market, the existence of Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World makes complete sense. After all, many gamers in the west never got to delight in what is likely the best entry in the Wonder Boy/Monster World series. How does this fancy remake play? Imagine for a second that Zelda II: Return of Link was good. That’ll get you pretty close.
• 85Universo NintendoWonder Boy: Asha in Monster World is a captivating title, presenting simple mechanics alongside a beautiful art style and pleasant soundtrack. On the other hand, the lack of new mechanics and some loose plot elements affect the final experience for the player.
• 80StarbitWonder Boy Asha in Monster World revisits a classic that most players didn't have the chance to discover and it does a great job at bringing it into our day and age. While it's true that the game's pacing feels rather slow, which is to be expected from a title that's over a quarter of a century old, everything in this work was done in a way that respects the original and brings it up to today's standards.
