Hydlide 3 Visitors from Darkness

Hydlide 3: Visitors from Darkness is a role-playing video game released in 1989 for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Action RPG corresponding to Hydlide Series Final. Subtitle is "The Space Memories".

Gameplay[]

With Hydlide II as Foundation, the Graphic and Sound aspects have been greatly enhanced, and the Story, which used to be just a simple dialogue and text display, has become solid. Attack has been changed from the previous Tackle by waving Weapon. Various "realistic" systems, such as Time, Meal, Sleep, Weight, were incorporated into the Game System. However, their management is, of course, cumbersome, because the money is even heavy, and they must constantly carry and change money with them. The notation "3" is Arabic, not Roman. The reason that it did not become "III" is said to be that when he made II, he said, "I will not make III." The Hydlide Series and Nihon Falcom's Action RPG, which were often compared, were coincidental with the simultaneous release of 'Ys' and 'Spotlight processing in Cave'
