Double Dragon III: The Sacred Stones, released in Japan as Double Dragon III: The Rosetta Stone (ダブルドラゴンIII ザ・ロゼッタストーン), is a 1991 beat 'em up video game developed by Technōs Japan for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was the third Double Dragon game for the NES, and was published in North America and Europe by Acclaim Entertainment. Although it loosely based on the similarly titled arcade game Double Dragon 3: The Rosetta Stone, it is not a port, but a parallel project that was developed at the same time.
