Item Description

A flood is swallowing the world, and the only way to stop it is to fly a time machine. Final Fantasy Legend III hands a party of four young heroes the Talon, an ancient craft that can cross both time and space, and sends them ricocheting between past, present and future to restore its lost power before the Water Entity drowns everything they know. It is a sweeping, strange adventure for a Game Boy cartridge, and the most traditional-feeling RPG of Square's handheld trilogy.

Released in Japan in 1991 as SaGa 3: Jikuu no Hasha and brought to North America by Square in 1993 under the Final Fantasy name, this entry came from a different team. Series creator Akitoshi Kawazu was busy with Romancing SaGa, so Square's new Osaka studio took over under director Kouji Ide, and the change shows. Humans now grow through experience levels the way they would in a mainline Final Fantasy, which makes this the friendliest way into the Game Boy SaGa games for players who bounced off the earlier entries' unpredictability.

The SaGa weirdness has not gone anywhere; it has just been rerouted. Feed a character the meat that defeated enemies leave behind and they turn into a beast, then a full-blown monster. Bolt on mechanical parts instead and they become a cyborg, then a robot. Magic stones add yet another layer of abilities, so your party can finish the game as an unlikely mix of claws, circuitry and spellcraft. The Talon grows alongside them, upgraded through the campaign to reach places it could not go before, and visiting the same world across different eras gives exploration a pull the first two games never had.

The story aims high, building toward revelations about Pureland, the sealed-away realm at the heart of the conflict, and the gods who shaped its fate. Ryuji Sasai and Chihiro Fujioka wrote the score, Electronic Gaming Monthly gave the game an Editor's Choice Gold Award when it reached North America, and in Japan it sat atop Famitsu's sales charts from December 1991 into the new year. On original hardware it is the capstone of the Game Boy SaGa trilogy: the point where Square's most experimental series met the Final Fantasy mainstream halfway.

About the game

Millennia ago, a fierce battle was waged for control of an idyllic world known as Pureland. After much fighting, the brave warriors of Pureland were protectively sealed in their own dimension, away from the rest of the universe. This was done by means of Talon, a powerful space craft capable of traveling through both time and space. Centuries have passed and the would-be master of Pureland have managed to create a rift in the galaxy, sending the Pureland Water Entity to devour all that stands in its path. You must journey through past, present, and future to find the 13 pieces of the now-divided Talon. Only then can you save the universe from total destruction.
