MSX translation · On hold · Started October 2010
Randar III: The Adventure of Randar
Our unfinished English translation project for Compile's lighthearted MSX2 role-playing adventure.
October 2010
Where the Randar III translation began.
We started translating Randar III in October 2010. Its humor, characters, and larger five-disk adventure made it a project we genuinely wanted to bring to English-speaking MSX players.
The project that kept waiting
Other adventures kept getting in the way.
Randar III was repeatedly put on hold because we kept getting pulled into other projects. SD Snatcher began as a diversion from it and soon became Project Melancholia, taking over our attention completely. Randar III remains unfinished, but it still belongs in the history of everything that followed.
December 2024
The comeback that Burai interrupted.
We finally returned to Randar III in December 2024 and started moving the project forward again. Then, at the beginning of 2025, Burai pulled us into another enormous adventure and Randar III went back on hold. At this point, it may be our cursed project—but we still have not given up on it.
