Torneko's Great Adventure 3 Advance English translation

What's translated

Sam Steel began this patch in 2020 and shared it as a series of partial releases. The early versions already translated every item and enemy name, the basic combat and action messages you see in the dungeons, and the opening part of story mode, and they added a capital-letter English alphabet for name entry. Later updates lengthened and polished item and enemy names, fixed typos and translated a little more of the story.

The remaining work listed by the creator was the rest of story mode, the dungeon text and the menus, so expect plenty of Japanese past the opening. Version 0.05 was announced in May 2022; how much of that list it covers was not stated.

Playing it

Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese cartridge following the creator's instructions. In an emulator, set the save type to 64K Flash or the game will not save properly.

Another option

A separate, newer English translation of the same game by a different team is also listed on this site; this entry covers Sam Steel's earlier project.
