“Kenshin Dragon Quest: Yomigaerishi Densetsu no Ken”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

In order to play, the player uses a toy sword as their game controller to walk (by pointing forward), to fight off monsters, defend with your shield, cast spells, and for every other input needed by the system. Slashing the sword in different directions (horizontal, diagonal, vertical) by the player will cause different effects and damage to enemies encountered in the game world. The game's ROM is located on an item that resembles a shield. To save a game in process, the person must use a memory card that looks like a book, which is inserted into the shield.

This game is classified as Adventure, and not a traditional Role-playing game. This is because most of the game is set on a predetermined path that you can only travel in one direction, with few exceptions of side paths. Enemy encounters are set at predetermined locations and formations. This is in contrast to a Role-playing game focusing on dungeon crawling and open exploration.^[5]

The monsters encountered are the standard variety from Dragon Quest titles, including slimes, moles and skeleton knights.^[5] There are special bosses that reside at the end of each chapter. As the player builds up successful attacks and blocks with their shield, they build up a super meter. When this is completed, the player is enabled to unleash a powerful attack.^[5]

Story

The quest is broken into eight chapters that take you throughout all of the locations in Alefgard, many being the same as in Dragon Quest.^[6] Eventually, the hero will put together the same rainbow bridge as in Dragon Quest, before he makes his way into the final castle, where he faces off against the King Dragon.^[6] The game includes a few mini-games, including a Slime Crisis game that would later be seen in The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors.^[5]^[6]
