* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The intro of the Platform/Turbografx16 version and the Platform/Playstation2 version shows Genos as a pure human. Starting with the remake, he has been established as a member of the Eldeen.

The game would later receive two {{Video Game Remake}}s; one for the Platform/PlayStation2 by Creator/{{Taito}} in 2005 and one for the Windows and Platform/PlayStationPortable titled ''VideoGame/YsTheOathInFelghana'', the latter of which builds the game from the ground up and rewrites the story.

->'''Years have passed since the swordsman Adol saved the kingdom of Ys from certain destruction. Joined by his companion Dogi, they set out for new adventures. And just in time...'''

* OddballInTheSeries/VideoGames: ''Wanderers from Ys'' is the only side-scrolling game in the series. It also differs from its two predecessors by having a dedicated "attack" button, rather than attacking by ramming.

->''"The third Ys game takes a cue from Zelda II and flings the series in a side scrolling perspective. As a result, many fans regard it with quite a bit of disdain (again, much like Zelda II). Taking place a few years after the first two games, Adol and Dogi travel to the town of Redmont, where evil happenings are going on. All of this is somehow related to the cold-hearted childhood friend Elena and her malicious brother Chester (surely the best-named evil doer in video game history), who is seeking the power of an ancient demon named Galbalan (AKA Demonicus in some versions). Naturally, it's up to Adol to investigate the conspiracy, none of which has anything to do with the land of Ys."''
-->-- Hardcore Gaming on what made the game infamous
The third game in the Ys series, it follows Adol and Dogi heading to the land of Felghana after the latter was absent for so long. But after witnessing the fortune teller's crystal ball shatter and vaguely speak of Galbalan, they find themselves travelling to Redmont where they hear of the monster problems plagueing it and the townsfolk were being harrassed by men from the caslte of Valenstein. Taking matters into his own hands, Adol must seek out the statues that the men were hunting down.

* SuddenlySpeaking: This is one of the few times we get to see Adol with dialog and he does it plenty over the game.
