Shining Force Gaiden - Final Conflict (Jpn) - シャイニング・フォース外伝 -ファイナル コンフリクト-
Shining Force Gaiden: Final Conflict (シャイニング・フォース外伝 ~ファイナル コンフリクト~, Shainingu Fōsu Gaiden: Fainaru Konfurikuto), the third of the Gaiden sub-series, is a 1995 tactical role-playing game for the Sega Game Gear, and is both a sequel to the original Shining Force: The Legacy of Great Intention, and a prequel to Shining Force II: Ancient Sealing. It was released after both games, with the intention of connecting their plots. Despite its name, it is not directly story-related to Shining Force Gaiden (1992) or Shining Force Gaiden II (1994), also released for Game Gear.
Unlike most of its predecessors, the game was never released outside Japan. English patches have been created by fans for players who cannot speak Japanese.
Shining Force Gaiden: Final Conflict uses gameplay identical to Shining Force Gaiden I and II. Like most games from the series, the three Gaiden games do not possess an exploration mode. Between battles, the player is able to buy and sell items, choose the battle party, cure and resurrect units, and save the game.

Story
Max, the leader of the Shining Force from the first Shining Force game, is chasing the witch Mishaela (servant of the presumably dead villain Darksol, from the same game). One of Max's companions, the robot Adam, is injured in battle with Mishaela. Max's party stops to help the robot, and only Max and his companion Ridion continue the chase.
Unfortunately, Max and Ridion never came back from the chase. Led by a man named Ian, Max's remaining companions set out to find them, and the unexpected awaits...

Characters
The following is a list of the more significant characters in the game.
Ian: The leader of the Shining Force party.
Max: The former leader of the Shining Force. A great hero who once fought and defeated the evil wizard Darksol and his awakened monster, Dark Dragon. After Darksol's demise, he formed a new party and continued to fight evil, now following the track of Darksol's former servant, Mishaela. He disappeared when chasing Mishaela, and the first goal of the new Shining Force is to find him.
Adam: A robot of the Ancients who serves and fights alongside Max. He was badly injured when Max's group fought Mishaela's group on Parmecia, and became unable to fight. However, he is important as an advisor to Ian.
King Galam: The righteous King Galam rules the kingdom with the same name. He gives Ian the legendary sword wielded by Max to fight evil, the Chaos Breaker. In honour of Ian's victory, he later renames the sword as "Force Sword".
Mishaela: Chief servant of Darksol. Was seemingly defeated by the Shining Force in the second Shining series game, but we now learn it was only one of her dolls that was defeated. Her plans are still unknown, but it's certain that she is involved in the disappearance of Max. She is a cunning, malicious, and arrogant woman with formidable magical ability.
Odd Eye: A blind warrior in the service of a devil named Zeon (from Shining Force II). Zeon is a great enemy of Darksol, so Odd Eye joins the Shining Force for a while to help them to defeat Mishaela. He wields a sword and possesses an attack called Odd Eye Beam, shooting rays by opening his blind eyes.
