Profile

Golden Sun: The Lost Age is the 2nd installment to the Golden Sun series. This time, instead of trying to recover the elemental stars, you will be trying to put them in their respective places in the Lighthouses. This is obviously the sequel to Golden Sun. Golden Sun: The Lost age was released into the world about one year later than Golden Sun. It features the rest of Weyard, more spells, weapons, creatures, and psynergy! The main character, Felix has to save the world from the falling prey to the powers of psynergy. You must help them on this quest.

Story

After the events at Venus Lighthouse, Felix, Jenna, Sheba, Alex, and Kraden are washed up on a new land. They now must find a way to light the remaining lighthouses which lay on the other side of Weyward. They find Piers, a Mecury Adept who is jailed for speculation of being a Pirate. He then released after his jewel which power his ship is stolen. During this time, Alex has left the party, and the rest of the party make their own way across Weyard, learning new Psynergy, and getting more Djinn. They once again, meet up with Alex after pursuing him. They join together to get Piers jewel back, then they take off to Lemuria, rules by King Hydros who will help them get to the other side of Weyward. During this time, they meet up with their new rivals, Karst, and Agatio, who have joined Alex. All they want to do is extract revenge on Isaac for killing Saturos and Menardi. The two parties from both games meet up, and join, and then head off to light the last remaining lighthouse.

Battle System

During the game play of Golden Sun, you will encounter many upon many of creatures. Some of which, you have to battle. There are 4 or more people you must use while fighting, and each has their own element. But, by mixing Djinn, each character can has a wide variety of psynergys.

Import System

Players of this game that also beat the first Golden Sun have an option of importing data by two methods. Importing data would change the status of the of the returning characters from the first Golden Sun. The first of which would be to gain a password from your file in the first game and input it into this game. Passwords have 3 levels: Bronze, which only imports which Djinni from the first game that you have collected and the character levels, Silver: Which imports Levels, Djinni, and the stats that the character had at the time of completion. Finally, there is Gold, which imports levels, possesed Djinn, stats, the items held by the character, and the coins that were in the party's possesion at time of completion. Seeing as passwords are built into the game and not affected by what the party actually has, it is possible to manipulate passwords to gain multiples of many items, such as the Sol Blade, which there is only supposed to be one of. The second method is to link up. With two or more GBA systems, a player may link up the two systems and import data that way. Importing data this way imports the most. Golden Sun: The Lost Age will import everything from all the gold bonuses, to even smaller things the the color of the menu you were using in Golden Sun.
