## Description

DRAGON QUEST III: The Seeds of Salvation is a standalone mobile port of a beloved JRPG, bringing the Erdrick Trilogy to your device. Download once and there’s no need for additional purchases or downloads; it features an independent storyline that can be enjoyed without playing DRAGON QUEST I or DRAGON QUEST II, with English text only.

Features include a freely customizable party of up to four characters via Patty’s Party Planning Place; nine vocations with job-changing mechanics; a quest that spans continents, dungeons, and bonus content for 30+ hours of gameplay; bonus dungeons, medal mini-games, and a personality system that makes each playthrough unique. Controls are simple and optimized for vertical mobile layouts, and the game supports iOS 12.0 or higher.

## Review summary

Dragon Quest III on iOS is a polished, faithful remake that updates visuals, music, and controls while delivering a lengthy, nostalgic JRPG experience with deep customization. It’s highly replayable and worth the price for fans and newcomers alike. However, multiple reviews cite downsides: Pachisi content removal, persistent save-data and cross-device transfer issues, grind-heavy pacing, missing original features, and requests for more language/localization options. Overall, it’s a strong pick with notable caveats for those sensitive to content and saves.

### Pros

- Updated graphics and orchestral soundtrack that work well on iOS
- Deep class/job system with personality mechanics for varied builds
- Long, immersive, nostalgia-rich RPG with strong story and good value
- Smooth mobile controls and user-friendly interface
- Faithful yet accessible remake that appeals to both fans and newcomers

### Cons

- Pachisi boards/tracks removed, cutting content from the original game
- Save data issues across devices and occasional data loss or corruption
- Grind-heavy pacing and difficulty at times
- Missing original features (e.g., Monster Medals Quest, monster animations) noted by several users
- Requests for additional language options/localization (e.g., Japanese translation)
