Product Description

From the Manufacturer

An epic battle through time and space. Millenia 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 spacecraft capable of traveling through both time and space.

Centuries have past and the would-be masters 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-devoured Talon. Only then can you save the universe from total destruction.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best Final Fantasy you could get for Game Boy, May 8, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Final Fantasy Legend 3 (Game Cartridge)

My first Final Fantasy game ever was Final Fantasy Legend II. Now that game was great, but it was a bit shorter and had less depth than Final Fantasy Legend III. Unlike other Final Fantasies for NES, SNES, and Playstation/PC, you get much more customization over the characters, and the monster/robot characters are something that really make this game fun. I can't say that the plot is as good as FFVII, but the game definitely has some of the best aspects of the Final Fantasy series and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best Game Boy RPGs ever, February 26, 2003

With the exception of The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, Final Fantasy Legends 2 and 3 were the best pre-Advance Game Boy RPGs ever made. The battle systems for both were slightly different from their big-screen brethren (especially as they were not technically in the Japanese Final Fantasy series, but from the SaGa series), but FF Legend 3 is fairly recognizable: Fight, Magic, and Item are all in place (though spells are bought and learned). Unlike in Legends 1 and 2, in Final Fantasy Legend 3, weapons are unbreakable and magic spells cost MPs, rather than simply being consumable items.

This is the first FF Legend game to feature characters with given names. The plot is also more cohesive, as progress is no longer from world to world but to different parts of the same world. In addition, the airship is the coolest airship in any of the Final Fantasy games; it attacks enemies, sells items, travels through various planes of existence, provides free healing, and more.

Graphics, music, and length are all extremely impressive given the game's age (released in 1990), and still largely hold up on the strength of the gameplay. Sunsoft's rerelease ensured the game's continuing availability, though it won't last forever; both this game and Legend 2 (as well as Legend 1, though it is weaker) are strongly recommended to console FF players searching for more proofs of SquareSoft's brilliance.

A final note: another of SunSoft's rereleased Squaresoft Gameboy Games, Final Fantasy Adventure, is actually in the Secret of Mana series. Thus, it resembles a Zelda game: enemies are encountered and fought on the main map, with no separate battle screen. It is a good game, but very different from the Legend series.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best RPG of the pre Game boy advance era, April 19, 2006

This was the greatest RPG ever made for the gameboy (yes even better than any lame Gameboy color RPG except Dragon warrior 3 was good but not better). It was good for it's time. Sometimes some of the lines the characters say can be cheesy but it was a classic. If you are big on old school hndhelds please get this game. you'll be happy you did.
