Breath of Fire III Part 7 - Translation Error Celestial Navigation Sep 02, 2019

Matthew just can't stop his faeries from eating each other in this desert-spanning episode! Breath of Fire somehow manages to go full Sierra game AND begin the space elevator up to Disc 3 Crazy!

Breath of Fire III what is? This episode might not answer that, but it does have a variety of minigames to make your life so very very good. These include:

AND SO MANY MORE.

Breath of Fire III Part 4 - Matthew Needs Faeries Aug 12, 2019

Show notes

Breath of Fire decides to take a long stroll through memory lane as a now grown-up Ryu revisits his childhood haunts. Fortunately Johnny has caught up, Vanessa finds something in common with Peco, there's a game-breakingly good dragon form, and no one can figure out this faerie village minigame. Oh! Also now the quest is to go talk to God, which is a whole thing.

This Week: We grab yet another passport from Nina's dad! Next Week: We make it across the sea after about eighty minigames in possibly the most minigame filled episode ever.
