About this game
The third title of the Lufia series gives us an entirely new battle and dungeon system.
All of the dungeons in this game are randomly generated, which can get annoying at times.

Otherwise, it's a lot like Lufia 2 in the dungeon department.
You see the monsters, they move when you move and you can stun them.
The battle system in this game is rather unique.
You can use 9 characters in a 3x3 formation.
The character in the front row deals the most physical damage, but also takes the most physical damage.
Vice versa for the back row one, and the one in the middle row obviously takes and deals average damage. 9 characters might seem like much to use, but you can only let 3 characters attack during a turn; One from each vertical row.
The 3x3 system is also used for special attacks and magic systems.
Each character has a power in one colour; Blue, green, yellow or red, which means magic, defense, speed or power respectively.
The other characters who are in the same vertical or horizontal row also receive the same amount of power from this character; This way, all characters share their power with eachother.
Other than that, the story circles around the Sinistrals returning - Again.
Another thing that has returned is the Ancient Dungeon, but this time around, it has 200 floors and a very difficult and unexpected boss at the bottom...
About Nintendo 3DS
The Nintendo 3DS (2011) added glasses-free stereoscopic 3D and a second analog input to Nintendo's handheld line, eventually building a library that rivaled the DS in size and quality. Because the eShop for digital purchases has since closed, physical 3DS cartridges are the only way to preserve access to many titles — a dynamic that's pushing more collectors toward cartridge-based copies even for games that were originally digital-first.
Gamevaro tracks Lufia: The Legend Returns for Nintendo 3DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Lufia: The Legend Returns to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This 3DS release dates back to 2015.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
