Dragon Ball Z III Fierce Battle Androids is a licensed turn-based tactical RPG published by Bandai exclusively for the Famicom adapting the Android and Cell story arcs. Goku and the Z-Fighters traverse the overworld, engaging grid-based turn battles against Dr. Gero’s creations. Manage ki reserves to unleash signature special attacks such as the Kamehameha.
The world map links rural towns, wilderness zones and enemy laboratories. Random encounters trigger tactical combat. Victories raise character power levels and unlock upgraded combat techniques.
Key story battles pit the team against Android 19, Android 20, the twin Androids 17 and 18, and the evolving forms of Cell.
Bandai’s anime-inspired tile graphics and dramatic battle soundtrack recreate the tense Android saga atmosphere from the original Dragon Ball Z series.
Strategically, consistent victory over Cell evenly trains available combatants. Overreliance solely on Goku leaves allies unprepared for continuous waves of android ambushes.
For contemporary Famicom retro Dragon Ball Z licensed collectors, this tactical RPG faithfully adapts the landmark Android and Cell conflict storyline.
