    By all rights I should hate this game because it's the most blatant ripoff game I've ever played in my life, I didn't know when I played it as a kid cause I hadn't played the game it's ripping off but this game is literally Link to the Past. Aside from the world and dungeons being different it's the exact same game. But as much as I know saying this would get me nuked by Zelda fans I actually think this game did LttP better than LttP did... I didn't know what LttP was as a kid so I just loved this for what it was, and this game was one of the big ones for me as a kid. Still one of my favourite PS1 games. If we're just gonna judge Monkey Hero for what it created by itself, i.e. its world, then its world is actually pretty great. It's got a really comfy feel, especially the Monkey Village, and the dungeons are really interesting and really distinct from one another. I want to go more in depth as to why I love this game but I'm typing this while sleepy and I can't think straight, but take my word for it that even as a disgustingly obvious ripoff game it's easy to forgive because it just does it so damn well. Rather than just pointing at LttP and saying 'that's popular, make that', the developers clearly understood -why- LttP was good, and worked with that to make something even better. IMO. They really could've stood to at least change the UI though...
