Terranigma tells the story of the Earth's resurrection by the hands of a boy named Ark, and its progress from the evolution of life to the present day.
Setting
In Terranigma, the Earth is portrayed as a hollow sphere that has both an external and internal face. Since the beginning of the Earth, the external Lightside, the surface world, stood for growth whereas the internal Darkside, the under world, represented decline. Over the course of billions of years, these two forces came to be called God and Devil. Regardless of the inner antagonism, rapid progress took root and primitive life forms evolved to plants, animals and humans. Technology and industry revolutionized the evolution, but the fight between God and the Devil was still taking place, more fiercely than ever. The conflict culminated in a final battle at the southernmost point of the surface world. However, neither of the two forces was victorious. The continents of the surface world submerged into the sea and the under world was sealed away.
 
Illusion of time was quality stuff. I bought it last year on a nostalgia trip after finding my old SNES.

Terranigma looks a very similar style graphics wise, may have to check it out.
 
I played this many years ago... i never could find the cartridge so i 'discovered' a ROM. I can't remember if i ever finished it, but it was definitely classic, right up there with one of my all time favorites Secret of Mana.
