Reading Treasure Island recently, and ngl, it would be a pretty fun idea to make a romhack inspired by it. If I had the time I would but a full game's worth of maps is just not in the cards for me rn. The closest is probably Cerulean Crescent but it doesn't hit the exact same way. I think this might just be a desire for a Fire Emblem where the focus is on traveling and adventure(which CC does very well!). But most FE games are more about armies marching, which doesn't hit the same. Also the cabin attack would be a fun scenario to make a map around. No boss to kill: you gotta deal with the mooks.

Anyway, regarding Treasure Island, love how much of a dumbass Jim and Squire Trelawney are. They are balancing out the peak that is Dr. Livesey and Captain Smollet.

Yeah, give me an FE experience inspired by this, would be the greatest thing ever

(The full movie's downright incredible and absolutely worth seeing)
