After the events of ''[[SD Valis|Valis II]]'', the Dark World is being destroyed. The fortuneteller Leigh informs the Dark World's king, Glames, that they only have six months before it is destroyed. Hopeless, Glames decides to become king of both the Human World and Dreamland, but he knows that Nizetti, the ruler of Vecanti, is controlling the power level of the Valis sword and that any attempt to invade either world would result in Yuko coming with a full-powered Valis to destroy him. Nevertheless, he takes the risk, knowing his sword Leethus, is just as powerful as Valis and that both swords can be combined for terrible destructive power.

 +
==Gameplay==
 +
The game is a platformer. The game is initially played as Yuko, but Cham and Valna become available to play after rescuing them. The characters move with {{left}} and {{right}} and crouch with {{down}}. They jump with {{C}}, jump higher with {{up}}+{{C}}, and jump off ledges with {{down}}+{{C}}. They can slide along the ground with {{down}}+{{A}}, which can be used to evade enemies or to move over gaps in the terrain. The player can switch the active character by holding {{A}} while standing still.
 +
 
 +
The characters attack using their standard weapons with {{B}}. Their attacks are stronger when the power gauge is fuller. Attacks expend the power gauge, but it quickly replenishes. Power-ups can be found to lengthen the power gauge to increase the maximum attack strength and to increase the speed at which the gauge replenishes. Characters also have special magical abilities, which are cast with {{up}}+{{B}} after finding a magic ability item. The magic ability item gives the characters the ability to cast spells with either the fire, ice, or thunder elements. Magic abilities cost magic points, which can be restored by finding items. In addition to having different standard weapons, Yuko, Cham, and Valna have different magic abilities.
 +
 
 +
Characters have a hit point gauge that indicates their health. They lose hit points when they take damage from enemies, but they can restore health by finding items. The characters share their hit points and magic points. They lose a life when they lose all of their hit points and must restart the stage. Additionally, each stage has a time limit, and the player also loses a life when time runs out. The game ends if the player runs out of lives.

Valis III (ヴァリスIII) is a 1990 action game for the TurboGrafx-16 CD by Telenet Japan. It was ported to the Sega Mega Drive in 1991 and released in the US and Japan. It was the first Valis game released on a Sega system (the first two games would follow).

Story

Valis III, Introduction.png

Introduction

After the events of Valis II, the Dark World is being destroyed. The fortuneteller Leigh informs the Dark World's king, Glames, that they only have six months before it is destroyed. Hopeless, Glames decides to become king of both the Human World and Dreamland, but he knows that Nizetti, the ruler of Vecanti, is controlling the power level of the Valis sword and that any attempt to invade either world would result in Yuko coming with a full-powered Valis to destroy him. Nevertheless, he takes the risk, knowing his sword Leethus, is just as powerful as Valis and that both swords can be combined for terrible destructive power.

Gameplay

The game is a platformer. The game is initially played as Yuko, but Cham and Valna become available to play after rescuing them. The characters move with Left and Right and crouch with Down. They jump with C, jump higher with Up+C, and jump off ledges with Down+C. They can slide along the ground with Down+A, which can be used to evade enemies or to move over gaps in the terrain. The player can switch the active character by holding A while standing still.

The characters attack using their standard weapons with B. Their attacks are stronger when the power gauge is fuller. Attacks expend the power gauge, but it quickly replenishes. Power-ups can be found to lengthen the power gauge to increase the maximum attack strength and to increase the speed at which the gauge replenishes. Characters also have special magical abilities, which are cast with Up+B after finding a magic ability item. The magic ability item gives the characters the ability to cast spells with either the fire, ice, or thunder elements. Magic abilities cost magic points, which can be restored by finding items. In addition to having different standard weapons, Yuko, Cham, and Valna have different magic abilities.

Characters have a hit point gauge that indicates their health. They lose hit points when they take damage from enemies, but they can restore health by finding items. The characters share their hit points and magic points. They lose a life when they lose all of their hit points and must restart the stage. Additionally, each stage has a time limit, and the player also loses a life when time runs out. The game ends if the player runs out of lives.
