| Name: | Ys 3 - Wanderers from Ys |
| Author/Vendor: | Falcom |
| Released: | 1991 |
| Type: | RPG |
| Language: | English and Japanese |
| Premise: | The third installment in the popular Ys series of RPGs (and the only one for the Genesis) finds our heroes travelling to the town of Kenai, where a mysterious evil has taken root. |
| Impressions: | Great graphics, great sound, good gameplay, and an intriguing plot (albeit a gawdawful long intro to wade through - good thing you can skip it). This is one of the all-time best Genesis RPGs, and is a heckuva lot better than that laughable SNES version.... |
| Variations: | The original, Ys 1 - Vanished Omens, is available for the Sega Master System. The sequel, Ys 4 - Mask of the Sun, is available for the Mega CD. The second Ys game does not appear to have been released for any Sega platform. |
| Recommended Emu: | Genecyst X |
