Each one of them has her/his own background story and dwells in a different land. In the beginning of the game, you are offered to choose a group of three among six different characters of different classes: Duran the Fighter, Angela the Magic User, Lisa the Amazon, Carlie the Cleric, Kevin the Grappler and Hawk the Thief. The game features several plot lines connected to each other by their common background. But some people know about those sealed powers, and they don't want to free them for the sake of humanity, but for their own gain - such as the kingdom of Altena, which is slowly freezing and which can be saved only by the legendary powers. Years have passed, and all the destructive powers of Mana have been securely sealed by Mana Swords into eight seeds, all placed in eight different kingdoms. The mysterious power of Mana is also the center of all events in Seiken Densetsu 3. The game comes highly recommended, but play the game for its music, if nothing else.4 /5Seiken Densetsu 3 is set in the same world as the two previous Seiken Densetsu games (the first is Final Fantasy Adventure, and the second is most known as Secret of Mana). Hiroki Kikuta returns (I think) to compose the music in SD3. It’s like Zelda, Squareified, for a complete lack of a better comparison. If you’ve played the others in the series, like Legend of Mana or Final Fantasy Adventure… well, you still know what to expect: run around and hit things with your sword. As far as gameplay, if you’ve played Secret of Mana you know what to expect. I seem to say that about every game, though. The whole “see the same events from a different perspective” thing works out really well here, it turns out. SD3 uses the old Squaresoft crutch of multiple playable characters within the same timeframe (see: Rudra, RS3). And the less said about Sword of Mana the better. Sure, Secret of Mana may give it some competition, but I couldn’t stand SoM for some reason. This installment is unquestionably the best. Such is the way of all translations, I suppose. You guys didn’t have to endure the sheer pain that came before. Just think, all the newbies just take it for granted that SD3 is in English. Calling this game “Secret of Mana 2″ in front of the romhacking “scene” elite will earn you a quick correction, let me tell you something.
