Rance 03: The Fall of Leazas

About
Rance 03 is a remake of the Rance III classic, featuring completely new art, an updated scenario, and a revised system. Much comparable with those of the Rance 01 remake.

The gameplay has been completely revamped featuring a unique dungeon system with cards with several playable characters unlockable over the course of the game and the story changed in some ways to better adapt to the current plot of the on-going games.

While the plot has overall remained unchanged, several characters have been added and their backgrounds given more depth. It's also the first Rance game to include voice-acting, something that at first put off or shocked most of the fanbase, but was overall received positively and, according to Alicesoft Data, only 4% of the players played with voices off.

The castle falls quickly under the siege by these troops which called upon the aid of Dark Lords. During the battle, Princess Lia is also taken captive and the country collapses shortly after.

However, one ninja has managed to escape from the castle, carrying the national treasure and a last message by the princess. Eventually the ninja ends up in the free city of Ice in the west, carrying a tiny bit of hope.

They call upon the brutish warrior that can only think about beautiful women…
