The steam version has a bunch of extra dungeons with new enemies, New Game+, challenge mode options, among other things. It's also differently balanced in gameplay (More updated).
8 new dungeons. 20+ new bosses. 60+ new equips. Collectable monster cards. Newgame+ mode. New difficulty options (cheats and challenges) . Custom game options (different experience on each playthrough). HD graphics and music. Probably some more stuff I forgot to mention...

Wow, EBF5 on Kong ?! Bought that masterpiece first week and enjoyed it so much ! Was just thinking this morning, while listening to VGM OSTs in my car, how this game has nothing to pale in comparison with AAA games ! Heavy content, great style, humor, gameplay, musics.. ! To me, EBF3/4/5 belongs with all the best JRPGs such as "real" FF, Grandia, Star Ocean, Chrono Trigger, some Tales of or DQ etc..
Matt's gotta be proud !

Some tips: Give Anna three status boosting equipment (Alchemist/Gaia's Gift, Blue Elephant, Red Dress) so she can pierce status res easy. The secret to the game isn't raw power, it's damage stacking. Each element is boosted by a status - Bio/Tired, Bomb+Fire/Dry, and so on. Natalie's offenses are pretty weak in 1.5, though the Steam version (2.0) has them as strong as Lance. Lance has cooldowns, so try to alternate between two attacks - Coat of Teeth and Flame Titan work well to this end. When capturing foes, your stats don't matter. What does are capturing gear Good Luck, statuses on the target, and debuffs. Most foes can be caught at 30% health with Putrid Worm and status effects. It's easier to Steal an item and run than to try to kill foes to farm it. Change your clock to: Chinese New Year, Valentines, Halloween, Easter and Christmas for the seasonal stuff. Try to capture one of each foe, many are used in forging; most can be found in Grand Gallery if you used one up.

I gotta say, having a game from one of the best Flash developers is a great way to start off 2020.
Now let's see if we can sneak in MARDEK 4 in the next few months...

I couldn't rename my first capture, for some reason. I'd get the cursor when I clicked on the text, but typing didn't do anything.

Also don't play in incognito/private mode, and make sure to use the backup save feature every once in a while, which let's you manually save the game to your computer.

is there some other site where I could play it after all the browsers go a's s'cking and forbid flash?
some site where the game runs in some still allowed format?
You can either buy it on Steam or just download the .swf file and play it using the offline Flashplayer from Adobe - and there's plenty of other Flashplayers that do the same thing, like the Newgrounds Player.

Loaded the game from a save file from the trial version on kupogames.com back in november 2019, going to restart a game and hope it doesn't persist...

Alright, here we go!
Even though I've beaten the game already, I'm gonna try again, with the added challenge of time constraints!

I played the Steam version for 100 hours, insta 5/5 stars here. It's not just a phenomenal game, it's a great send off to Flash games as a whole as we approach the end of Adobe Flash. Thank you Matt for this great game and series as a whole.
