Alphadia III has officially launched today on Android for global players, marking the exciting third installment in the beloved Alphadia series. Developed by EXE CREATE and published by KEMCO, the game initially debuted in Japan last October and is now accessible worldwide.
What’s the Story in Alphadia III?
Set in the Alphadian Year 970, Alphadia III plunges you into the tumultuous final stages of the Energi War, a colossal struggle over the enigmatic life force known as energi. The world is split among three major powers: the Schwarzschild Empire in the north, the Nordsheim Kingdom in the west, and the Luminea Alliance in the east. As tensions reach a boiling point, a clone soldier named Alfonso steps into the fray. The plot thickens when a girl named Tarte arrives with the news of another clone's death, igniting a pivotal change in Alfonso's path.
What’s the Gameplay Like?
Alphadia III retains the classic turn-based combat system viewed from the side, beautifully rendered in pixel art. The game features several strategic systems, including SP Skills, which accumulate during battles and can drastically shift the tide of combat when used strategically. Additionally, Arrays offer players various battle formations and strategies that unlock as you progress, allowing for tailored approaches to different encounters.
A fresh mechanic introduced in this installment is the Energi Crock. By throwing in spare items while exploring, it gradually produces Energi Elements, which you can exchange for equipment or other valuable items at in-game shops. Throughout your journey, you'll encounter various factions, such as the peacekeeping alliance Deval and the elite military unit Rosenkreutz from Nordsheim. Different energi clone models also play a role, with Nordsheim deploying the Berger Series and Schwarzschild utilizing the Delta Series.
Beyond the main storyline, Alphadia III offers a wealth of side content and is optimized for controller use. You can purchase the full game on the Google Play Store for $7.99, or opt for the freemium version, which includes ads.
