Today marks the global release of **Alphadia III** on Android, the third installment in the popular Alphadia series. Developed by EXE CREATE and published by KEMCO, this game initially debuted in Japan last October. Dive into the rich narrative and engaging gameplay of Alphadia III, now available for just $7.99 on the Google Play Store, with a freemium version also offered featuring ads.
What’s the Story in Alphadia III?
Set in the year 970 of the Alphadian calendar, **Alphadia III** immerses players in the climactic phase of the Energi War, a monumental struggle over a vital life force known as energi. The world is partitioned among three major powers: the Schwarzschild Empire in the north, the Nordsheim Kingdom in the west, and the Luminea Alliance in the east. Amidst this tension, a clone soldier named Alfonso becomes central to the narrative. The plot thickens when a girl named Tarte informs him of another clone's demise, setting off a chain of events that propel Alfonso into action.
What’s the Gameplay Like?
**Alphadia III** retains the series' signature turn-based combat, presented in a classic pixel art style from a side-view perspective. Key to the gameplay are the SP Skills, which charge during battles and can dramatically shift the tide of combat if used at the right moment. Players can also utilize Arrays, tactical battle formations that unlock as you progress, offering diverse strategies to tackle various opponents.
A novel feature introduced in this installment is the Energi Crock. By adding surplus items to it, players can generate Energi Elements over time, which can then be exchanged for valuable equipment and items at designated shops.
Throughout your journey, you'll encounter various factions, such as the peacekeeping alliance Deval and elite military groups like Rosenkreutz from Nordsheim. You'll also come across different energi clone models, including the Berger Series from Nordsheim and the Delta Series from Schwarzschild.
In addition to the main storyline, **Alphadia III** offers a wealth of side content to explore. The game is optimized for controller use, enhancing the gaming experience on Android devices.
