Suikoden III

Background

Based 15 years after the end of the second game in the series, Suikoden III stars three characters-Hugo, Chris, and Gedo, who begin their journeys in three different locations around the gameworld. As the game's story progresses, their respective quests will intertwine as the plot winds toward one epic climax.

Gameplay

Players engage in RPG turn-based mechanics. Each party the character uses holds up to 6 characters and is divided into three sections of "partners." These partners can combine for a unite attack (if available), or attack individually using either their weapon or a rune (magic attack) that has been embedded. Only one character can use magic per round, however, so strategy is a must. Also characters develop unique skills by either knowing them innately or learning them from a skillmaster. Characters can further develop their skills by gaining enough skill points during battle.
