DRAGON QUEST

If I could just get a refund…I didn’t find it very fun

Japanese game but with no Japanese language available? Smh

Whenever I win a battle the game freezes and I can’t progress, for a game all about fighting enemies this is egregious and should be fixed immediately. Very disappointed.

This is a terrific port of the original game, but it would be fun to see an update similar to the FF pixel remasters that give the option to multiply the gp & exp from 0x to 4x.

I only knew this game as Dragon Warrior on NES before this. It’s fun, and there’s only one thing I looked up about it out of impatience. (These old games sometimes have small, important details that are very easy to miss.) Like a lot of classic RPGs, this game ends up being very short once you figure out what you’re doing. I probably could’ve done without the king lecturing me every time I got killed, but that’s a small detail.

Played the NA port, Dragon Warrior when I was 7 and was first RPG I ever played. This beautiful remaster of the original is fantastic. Can’t say enough good things about it. Thanks for the nostalgia ⚔️

This port offers an exceptional experience for one of the most important RPGs of all time. I was skeptical about the dedicated portrait mode, but it turned out to be a very natural way to play the game. Dragon Age is quite simple at its core, but the gameplay elements remain incredibly rewarding to this day. Any fan of JRPGs owes it to themselves to experience this timeless classic.

It would be nice.

this game is a very grindy. game but a very good game. it also is the first JRPG. but final fantasy defined the genre.

I was in a mood to play a classic RPG and was looking for something cheap to play on my phone. I originally was going to get ffvi but it was way more expensive than I wanted to pay at the time so I picked up this since it also had better reviews. The game itself is amazing and has aged slightly well. All these reviews saying it is great in a weird way kind of sum it up perfectly. It’s such an old game, and old RPG’s are known to be a slog to get through but dragon quest paces itself well. You do have to grind, but if you know what you’re doing it doesn’t take that long, and you will probably need a guide, but after talking to townspeople and examining the world you’ll find a lot of things naturally. The game is a classic and was built to cater to everyone in a fun way and that shows here. The port itself is also very good. I think it’s a port of a remake so when I looked stuff up I had to say “Dragon Quest 1 SFC” or something. But it updates all the art without making many map changes to the world. It also simplifies the original UI so instead of hitting the open door button from your list of commands you just hit select. It also makes hidden items more obvious so you don’t have to go bit by bit looking for the mark or a staircase. The only thing that I didn’t like with this port was that the audio was buggy. It wouldn’t let me play background YouTube vids which is ok. The music is fantastic (which I should’ve brought up earlier) but the audio itself would cut out sometimes and eventually just didn’t work for the last stretch of the journey which made events like playing the fairy flute kind of awkward as I had to just sit there waiting for the game to move on. I also have seen people point out that you can’t use controller or really pop it up to your tv. This port is made for your phone and for you to play with one hand. So it you plug it into your tv you might just get a vertical image with the moving buttons still plasters on your 4K tv. Just to keep that in mind, but double check. They could’ve patched it recently. But overall, if you are curious or just want to get ready for DQIII remake that comes out in November (this, II, and III are considered a trilogy) definelty try checking it out!
