Phantasy Star III: Generations of Doom, called Phantasy Star III: Toki no Keishousha (時の継承者 ファンタシースターIII) in Japan, is a 1990 RPG developed and published by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive.

It is much unlike the other games as it does not focus on Mother Brain and the corrupt monsters; instead it focuses on the marriages your generation has. Thus, you can eventually control your children, grand children, and great grand children, depending on whom you marry. You will travel to most of the planets in the Algo solar system, befriending creatures and learning about Mia, your wife, on the way.

This game was revolutionary for Sega, as it featured multiple endings and twisting gameplay paths. The graphic team was different to the ones that designed Phantasy Star, Phantasy Star II and Phantasy Star IV.

It was included in Phantasy Star Collection for the Sega Saturn and Game Boy Advance, Sega Mega Drive Collection and Sega Mega Drive Ultimate Collection.
