it was still a lot of fun finding and combining the djinn.

Combining: totally agree with you there; I spent a stupid amount of time messing with the djinn. I really do like the system, honestly, except for the part where it lets you defeat all non-boss monsters in one turn without getting damaged, making the random battles a terrible drag.
Finding, though, I'm glad you enjoyed combing for the random encounter djinn, because the rest of us hit GameFAQs instead of spending an interminable time entering battles on every square inch of the overworld trying to find things that the game never even gives you a hint of the location of.
While I'm posting, I will also agree with Hawkeye about the graphics being good, specifically the battle graphics. I'm honestly pretty surprised he didn't point them out, because when I was first playing the game, I was dumbstruck that visuals that good were coming out of a handheld system. Huge sprites with a bunch of different animations for different attacks, and my lord, the animations for the summons and higher level spells.
I will stand by the rest of my smarmy badmouthing, though, because not even those high points are enough to compensate for the horrendous blandness of the game in every other aspect.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
