Today marks the global release of Alphadia III on Android, a thrilling addition to the renowned Alphadia series. Developed by EXE CREATE and published by KEMCO, this game initially debuted in Japan last October. Now, players worldwide can dive into this captivating narrative set in the Alphadian Year 970, amidst the climactic stages of the Energi War—a fierce battle over the enigmatic life force known as energi.
What’s the Story in Alphadia III?
The world of Alphadia III is torn between three major powers: the Schwarzschild Empire in the north, the Nordsheim Kingdom in the west, and the Luminea Alliance in the east, all vying for control over energi. As tensions reach a boiling point, the story introduces us to Alfonso, a clone soldier whose life takes a dramatic turn following a visit from a girl named Tarte, who informs him of another clone's death. This pivotal moment sets the stage for a journey filled with intrigue and action.
What’s the Gameplay Like?
Alphadia III embraces the classic turn-based combat system viewed from a side perspective, all rendered in charming pixel art. The game features SP Skills that accumulate during battles and can dramatically shift the tide of combat when deployed at the right moment. Additionally, the game introduces Arrays, a series of battle formations and strategies that players can unlock, offering varied approaches to combat based on the challenges faced.
A unique gameplay element is the Energi Crock, where players can deposit surplus items. Over time, this Crock generates Energi Elements, which can be exchanged for equipment and other valuable items at in-game shops. Players will encounter various factions, such as the peacekeeping alliance Deval and the elite military unit Rosenkreutz from Nordsheim, along with different energi clone models, including the Berger Series from Nordsheim and the Delta Series from Schwarzschild.
Beyond the compelling main storyline, Alphadia III offers a rich array of side content and is optimized for controller use. You can purchase the full version of the game on the Google Play Store for $7.99, or opt for the freemium version available on Android, which includes advertisements.
