The Game
A Super Nintendo emulator is needed to play Seiken Densetsu 3. You can download one from my emulators page. If you need assistance with any of the emulators offered on my site, check out my emulation help subsite: Video Game Emulation for Newbies.
Seiken Densetsu 3
Due to the release of Collection of Mana and the 3D Remake, I can't host the ROM here. Rather, the button below directs you to SNES collections at Internet Archive. Click here if you need directions with that. If Internet Archive doesn't work out for you, I have more options in my links.
Note that when you're looking for the game, you need to search for “Seiken Densetsu 3” not “Trials of Mana”. You could either look for a pre-patched ROM, or download the Japanese ROM to patch with the English patch offered down.
ROM Hacks
Experience Seiken Densetsu 3 in English or in entirely new ways with ROM hacks! ROM hackers release their works as patches. To experience their hacks, you must apply their patch to the original game. If you need help with patching, I have instructions in my patching guide.
Seiken Densetsu 3 (English)
If you prefer patching the game yourself with the fan-based English patch, here's the Japanese version of the game and patch for you to do so.
Trials of Mana: 3-Players Edition
By default, Trials of Mana/Seiken Densetsu 3 only allows up to 2 players. This hack enables 3 players! It's just like the old days with Secret of Mana. Below you can download this hack pre-patched with Trials of Mana, pre-patched with the fan-translated Seiken Densetsu 3, or just the patch by itself.
Seiken Densetsu 3: Bugfix Edition
This awesome hack fixes many gameplay bugs and adjusts some values to be not absolutely imbalanced. This hack only works with the fan translation. The following changes and adjustments have been made:
- Fixed mistakes with how job classes were listed in the menus.
- Corrected issues with level-ups and max stats.
- Corrected hit/evade mechanics to have accurate timing.
- Many improvements to how accuracy and luck impact battle.
- Corrected character-specific bonuses and 'attack stacking'.
- Corrected case-specific behaviors with curing spells to have proper effects.
- Many corrections to magic with damage calculations.
- Blaze Wall, Flame Breath, Demon Breath and Lava Wave no longer remove status ailments from the target (they try to inflict non-existing burn state).
- Added element check on Lv2/3 techs (immune, absorb and reflect deal 1 damage instead of their real effects).
- Added experience rubberbanding if your highest leveled party member is below the monster’s level.
- And more! See the ReadMe for full list of changes and adjustments.
