Metal Max 3 (2010). Play Free Online

Summary

Metal Max 3 finally broke a 17‑year silence in the long‑running open‑world RPG series, offering the classic freedom the fans love, now on the Nintendo DS. You can roam wherever you like, tackle missions in any order, and mix and match character classes—from soldier to artist—while building your own tanks from scratch. Vehicles are fully customizable, but you’ll have to juggle weight limits and engine power, and when the terrain gets too rough you’re forced to fight on foot.
The game also sprinkles in arcade‑style diversions: gambling machines host mini‑games that range from third‑person shooters to racing challenges, breaking up the turn‑based combat. Although the encounter rate can feel relentless and battles sometimes slog, reviewers praised the sheer breadth of choice and the depth of the tank‑building system, earning a solid score from Famitsu and a strong rating from RPGamer.

Storyline

In Metal Max 3, the protagonist is rescued and revived by the eccentric Dr. Minch, a mad scientist who lives in the post‑apocalyptic wasteland. The rescue comes at a steep price: the hero suffers severe memory loss and can’t recall anything about his past. Determined to uncover his true identity, he takes up the life of a wandering bounty hunter. He roams the ruined world, taking contracts and battling monsters while hunting clues about who he once was. Each mission brings him closer to piecing together the fragments of his forgotten life.
