The Legendary Starfy 3, known as Densetsu no Starfy 3 in Japan, is a marine platforming game developed by Tose and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Advance (GBA). Celebrated as one of the most fluid and polished entries in the series, its gameplay blends water-based swimming physics with traditional land platforming.

Dual Playable Characters

For the first time in the series, players control two distinct characters, swapping between them depending on the stage requirements:

• Starfy: Focuses on high-mobility water maneuvers. His signature moves include dashing through the water and utilizing spinning attacks to defeat enemies or break barriers. He also retains advanced mechanics from previous titles like the double jump and ground slam.
• Starly: Making her debut, Starfy's pink sister introduces a completely unique playstyle. She can crawl through small spaces, take advantage of tighter gravity physics, and perform a wall jump to scale vertical areas.

Level Navigation and Mechanics

• Structure: Players travel across ten distinct, colorful underwater and coastal worlds, completing tasks for various sea creatures to open up the stage exit.
• Health and Currency: Players track health via five hearts. Scattered throughout the levels are Pearls, which double as the game's currency for buying items or costumes at the store, and as a way to replenish lost health.
• Upgradable Vehicles: The game features four unique vehicle power-ups that alter control schemes, including a Pogo stick for immense height, a Ram that scares away foes, and a fast-moving Horse that requires dodging obstacles.
• Wario Guest Appearance: Nintendo's Wario appears as a guest character in certain segments, affecting the objects Starfy must retrieve or interact with.

Multiplayer Minigames

Completing the single-player campaign unlocks a dedicated single-pack link multiplayer mode for up to four players. This mode includes five distinct, colorful mini-games accessible via a single cartridge download or online via Nintendo Switch Online:

1. King of the Hill: A cloud trampoline battle.
2. Stappy Says: A Simon Says memory clone.
3. Volleyball: A simple, one-button sports game.
4. Squid Battle: A free-for-all point scramble.
5. Red Light, Green Light: A clam-themed variation of the classic game.
