## What is Partia 3?

Partia 3 is a SRPG (Strategy Role-playing) video game inspired by Fire Emblem and Tear Ring Saga series. In a high fantasy setting, the game will take players through an adventure where magic and sword collide and friendship and betrayal intertwine.

Partia 3 : The Knight of Partia is the third installment of the Partia series that wraps up the 'Granian Trilogy'. However, the game is designed as a stand-alone set in hundreds of years after the events of Partia 2, hence no knowledge of the prior games is required.

The game includes 30 stages (including 5 hidden stages) that should provide solid 30 plus hours of game play if not 50 or 100.

It is not a graphically good looking game nor has the big sprite animated battles that Fire Emblem games have. UI can be a bit clunky and looks 'meh', in most places at best.

But if there's any labor of love, this must be it. Despite the financial failures of the first two Partia games, I kept on making this game, alone for five years, putting all my free times and vacations into, because frankly I was obsessed about finishing off this thing.

But I've had a lot of fun making it, and I still had more fun playing the game myself. I'm sure you will have some joy out of it, if you are a fan of Fire Emblem and Tear Ring Saga series.

Now mobile game landscape has changed a lot since I started out this journey back in 2011. There are now a lot of quality games in the App store, including a Fire Emblem itself!
I realized a few years ago I no longer served any good value to customers who were looking for a little SRPG experience on mobile. As I'm writing this, Partia 2 sold slightly more than 2K units in 5 years. So obviously this is not a money making venture, of which I hope my next idea is going to be, unlike this Partia thing.

Anyways, the result is a paid game, with no ad, no IAP, and no catch anywhere. I'm not even tracking any data as, frankly I don't see a point in doing that. You see I am already resigned to the fate this little big indie game is for the lovers only.

For The Lovers Only.

So this may be the final time I write a game description on an App Store. Or maybe not.

Whoever you are, I hope you enjoy. If you can, please let me know how you find your experience.

Thank you!

Dustin

### 5/5 — Incroyable

*2026-04-22, version 2.1.0*

On dirait vraiment Fire emblème, dommage que pour l’instant cela ne sois pas adapté en français mais sinon super jeu ! J’attends le 4 avec impatience

### 5/5 — Engaging, challenging and fun!

*2025-09-17*

You can tell that a lot of thought went into the game, and I really love some of the special touches like selections you make in the beginning that determine who your character ends up being. My two suggestions have already been raised by others - (1) healers are helpful but it’d be great if they could also attack in some way so you can keep them leveling with the team. (2) Would love to better understand the difference between the different spells, like which spells are better for what? Are some enemies weak to fire but resist ice? I can’t tell other than the weight. 
Thank you for making these games!

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot TKStrobe! I remember choosing not to give attack options to healers to create some tactical vulnerability to players and also making smart enemies prioritize attacking them lol. It could have been the simplicity of item system where eligibility was just the class. Weapon triangle exists for magics: elemental > light > dark > elemental which is about 30% advantage. There are special skills you can learn e.g. Fire Mage that makes your fire spells stronger, and I believe I removed any penalty for using other magic types. I appreciate your kind words!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-05-29*

Really, really fun game.  Can’t stress enough how amazing this trilogy has been for me.

**Developer response:** Awesome! Thank you very much Bob! I'm glad you're enjoying the game.

### 5/5 — More

*2022-10-06*

I needs it please, love the game concept I still like playing the older fire emblem games. Just don’t like the pay to win

**Developer response:** Lol it seems I can't working on games as my top two hobbies!

### 4/5 — Great game with major place for improvement

*2022-08-20, version 2.0.0*

This is a great game for anyone who is fan of fire emblem, but I found one major place for improvement:  The probability in this game is just horrible I don’t know what library you guys use in your code but for both stats growth and hit rate a lot of times it’s so frustrating to see no stat growth in 3 consecutive upgrade or no hit for a hit rate of 60%, this is why I hope you can add the load option inside the game menu because I need to keep reload game to get better stats during upgrade. I guess you guys probably want to add more randomness to the game but let‘s be honest no modern game does this nowadays and why not just change to make stats growth configurable to let players control the path?

### 2/5 — I do not see why anybody is enjoying this game

*2022-04-23*

Unless I’m missing something. This game is completely boring. The battles are lengthy, I feel like you’re grinding from the second fight. The miss rate is incredible. My guys are constantly missing their targets. And when they do hit it takes maybe 15to 20% of the enemies Life away which means I have to attack the same character something like six or seven times. And when it’s a battle that involves 15 to 20 enemies, I could spend an hour to an hour and a half on one battle. I can understand if this came later in the game after you got the player hooked. But my goodness what a snooze fest.

**Developer response:** I think you may be absolutely right Zach! Partia series is really not made for people who never tried old school Fire Emblem games, with lack of tutorials, etc. Partia 3 is especially made to be challenging, especially with Expert mode ON, by default. And yes, I put a lot of enemies into the field, and so I had to put a SKIP button on top to speed up enemy turn just for that lol!

### 5/5 — Amazing Game

*2021-11-13*

Absolutely amazing game! I was always a huge fan of the fire emblem games and have been searching for games that recreates that feeling and this game checks every box. Level design is awesome, story line is interesting, love the arena and the fact that I can have my own character (would like some more customization options in the next game). All in all great game can’t wait for Partia 4!

**Developer response:** Oh, thank you very much BTC18! I think you pinpointed the good parts of the game and was forgiving to many shortcomings. I've come to appreciate how old school Fire Emblem fans may enjoy the general 'it' of the game!

### 5/5 — Absolutely love it.

*2021-09-09*

3 of them to enjoy as well.

**Developer response:** Partia 3 I think is the best one of them and certainly the most epic! I hope you enjoy!

### 5/5 — Getting into the game!

*2020-10-03*

I’m liking it so far it’s a bit slow paced could have maybe a speed up button but maybe in the next project you developers on working on! I like portraits alot!

**Developer response:** Wow thank you! I certainly hope you can soldier on to the end of the game! :-D

### 5/5 — Nostalgia and Immersive

*2020-06-29*

I just want to say the new additions to the gameplay within the game make this so more of an immersive experience. I’m so glad to see the direction of where the series is going, and it feels so thrilling to see the progress in storyline and gameplay throughout the trilogy. It also brings back so many memories of my childhood from games like Advanced Wars and Fire Emblem. 

Even though there are several typos and oddly placed dialogues, the game and story is still amazing in every other right. 

However, even though I’ve played the game several times now, I’m still curious as to unlocking the hidden stages...

**Developer response:** Hi! I’m very glad you’ve enjoyed my little/big game lol. Now as for the hidden stages, you have to visit a house in the middle of deep forest in stage 8: March on Grana. Then assuming Hem stays alive other hidden stages will ne unlocked! Please let me know if you have any other questions! Thank you!
