Sa-Ga 3 - Jikuu no Hasha (Jpn) - サ・ガ3 時空の覇者

Nintendo Game Boy 1991 Square
Final Fantasy Legend III, originally released in Japan as Jikū no Hasha ~ Sa·Ga 3 [Kanketsu Hen] (時空の覇者 Sa・Ga3 [完結編], The Ruler of Time and Space ~ SaGa3 [Final Chapter]), is a role-playing video game developed and published by Square Co. for the Game Boy handheld system as the third game of their SaGa series. Initially released for Japanese audiences in December 1991, the game was made available in North America nearly two years later in September 1993. While the title retains many similarities to its predecessors in terms of style and gameplay, the game's development was headed by series newcomer Chihiro Fujioka, who also served as composer alongside Ryuji Sasai. The North American version of the game saw a re-release alongside the two other Final Fantasy Legend titles in July 1998 courtesy of Sunsoft. In 2010, an enhanced remake of the game was announced for the Nintendo DS titled SaGa 3 Jikū no Hasha: Shadow or Light (サガ3時空の覇者 Shadow or Light, SaGa3 The Ruler of Time and Space ~ Shadow or Light), featuring three-dimensional graphics, new story elements, and an arranged soundtrack.

The story of Final Fantasy Legend III combines fantasy and sci-fi elements-some later re-used in Chrono Trigger-with the player assuming the role of three characters who were sent back in time to prevent a massive global flood caused by a being known as the Pureland Water Entity from destroying the world. To accomplish their mission, the three heroes, along with companions aiding them on their journey, must travel through time by augmenting their flying time ship, the Talon, with 13 upgrade units from the past and future.

Interface for the game is a basic menu system. Players can view status and information from a character menu pressing Start. During combat, the player gives battle orders with menu's for each character in turn. The directional pad moves an image of a character representing the party while not in combat. Information is learned by talking to people and monsters. Final Fantasy Legend III instead of choosing character classes at the start of the game, a character's class may change by eating the meat of monsters and beasts, or installing the parts of cyborgs and robots after they are defeated in battle. Doing so will immediately effect a change in the character's class.

Each character starts at their default class (human or mutant depending on the character), and when fed meat will transform into a beast (if fed any kind of meat), and then a monster (if fed monster meat). When parts are installed into a character he/she will become a cyborg (by installing any kind of parts), and then a robot (by installing robot parts). Meat and parts counter each other: if a Beast has parts installed, he will revert to the default class; likewise, if a cyborg eats meat, he/she will also revert to the default class. Each class also has specific weak and strong points.

Development

The game was the first project by Square's Osaka development department, who were later responsible for production of Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. Producer Chihiro Fujioka noted that in addition to creating the game, they were also establishing themselves as a department, and as a result a great deal of effort was put into the game. The team decided to overcome the Game Boy's limitations by leaving some aspects to the player's imagination instead. In the case of graphics, this meant establishing first an object, then its shadows, allowing the player to visualize the missing colors themselves; a similar concept was applied to the game's music to overcome the limitation of working with only three notes for composition.

As Fujioka worked on the game's programming, composer Ryuji Sasai stated he would handle the game's music, though a musician himself Fujioka opted to contribute additional songs to the game. Sasai compared the limitations with the audio to a guitar capable of only six tones, though the cartridge capacity for the Game Boy at the time provided some difficulty. As a result, they concentrated on smaller songs, reducing the length of the tracks until they felt the music gave the proper impression.

The English translation of Final Fantasy Legend III was the first project of translator Ted Woolsey at Square, given Final Fantasy II's translated script as an example and instructed to ensure "there were no ‘repeats’ of that mess".

Nintendo DS version


In September 2010, Japanese magazine Famitsu announced that a remake of Final Fantasy Legend III for the Nintendo DS was being developed and would feature fully three-dimensional cel-shaded graphics. It was released on January 6, 2011.

Reception

Final Fantasy Legend III received mostly positive reviews, maintaining a 75% aggregate score on GameRankings.Electronic Gaming Monthly called it "a good RPG" and "definitely a good buy", citing the game's graphics and story as its high points, giving it a score of 8/10 and giving it an Editor's Choice Gold Award.Nintendo Power largely agreed, stating that the game had "[e]xcellent game depth and good graphics for a Game Boy RPG", but found the title's story and gameplay to be too similar to previous Final Fantasy Legend games, warning "don't expect anything new in this game", giving the game a score of 3.35 / 5.IGN called attention to the game's dated graphics and "imperfect" soundtrack, yet still found the game's music to be better than most Game Boy titles. They additionally found fault with the game's "poorly designed" equipment screen, stating it "makes distinguishing equipped items of the same class almost impossible", though declared it to be accessible even to novice players.

GameDaily named it alongside the related Game Boy Final Fantasy titles as definitive games for the system, describing it as providing "hours of role-playing excitement, whether you were waiting in a dentist's office or on the way to Grandma's house." The sentiment was shared by gaming magazines Electronic Gaming Monthly and Pocket Games, the latter of which ranked the titles together 8th out of the Top 50 games for the Game Boy.
