Personal review
Semi-interesting early RPG for the Game Boy. In contrast to its main competitor "Final Fantasy Legend", this game features first-person view. You only control one character, the fights are rather simple and the leveling up process goes rather fast and it feels like a beginner RPG. That doesn't mean there are a couple of puzzles and nasty mazes. The story is your typical "prince goes out to rescue the world from an evil dragon who controls the king" tale. Graphically the game features nice pictures of the surroundings, which try to be not your typical endless boring dungeon wall graphics. The monster graphics though are not as good as in the aforementioned "Final Fantasy Legend".
