There are movies that were loved by few while there were no special effects and all the technology available today. The same applies to many forms of art like music. Video games are also art, and this acknowledgment holds true in this magical world.

Yes, you understand where we're going, the Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is a historic Turn Based game that first appeared in 1988 on the NES, featuring renewed and nostalgic graphics. Its story, music, environments you'll encounter, and generally the whole "aroma" of this particular package will make you feel the need to become one with its magic. The best graphics in the world with high FPS fortunately won't be necessary (a fact known best by the game's creators) because the essence lies elsewhere, and you'll understand this while playing.

History

Many years ago, the great hero Ortega tried to defeat Baramos, who is a demonic dragon and the most dangerous monster, but he did not succeed. He left behind a wife and child to achieve his difficult goal with the hope of returning victorious, but unfortunately, that never happened. The result will be that Baramos continues his destructive work.

However, years have passed, and Ortega's child has grown up, turned 16 years old, and will be summoned by the king of Aliahan to undertake the mission that has been impossible until now, something his own father could not do. However, he will not be able to do it alone, so he will need the help of the team he will create.

Build your team carefully!

Choose wisely the combination of companions that will help you achieve your ultimate goal. Warrior, thief, mage, priest, and many others will be at your disposal to support you. Each hero has their own attributes, and there is the possibility of customizing appearance, voice, and more. Of course, their powers can be upgraded, and new ones can be added.

Exploration

We have reached the heart of the game. In our opinion, the most beautiful part and what is that? Well, the exploration, of course. The map you will be called to discover is large, and the villages, castles, cities, and dungeons will make you feel like a child in a toy store. In short, you will want to go here and there and even further, while several times you will pass by the same spot again saying, "How did I not notice this?" Also, each enemy has its own... schedule and you will encounter them at specific times of the day during your exploration.

Want to attack? Wait for your turn!

Yes, turn-based games have this logic. You will need to choose tactics and weaponry for your heroes so they can triumph on the battlefield. If an enemy seems too tough, you can "make a quick escape" and take on another, more... suitable for you! If the "waiting" for the completion of the battle seems a bit boring, you can set the speed so that the whole process finishes faster. 

Monster Arena

Not all monsters are malicious; some you will find along your journey, and all they will want is for you to take them out of the misery of their inactivity. They will repay you with their participation in the Monster Arena, where they will compete with other monsters, and every time they come out unscathed, you will also get your reward. In short, they will fight for you! You can find these monsters everywhere, and if you have missed one, then search for it at another time of the day! Some are very selective and appear at specific times!

That's quite a lot, isn't it? Oh yes! There's also the cherry on top, which is the music. The music played by the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony perfectly complements your journey in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake. If you want to experience a work of art from start to finish and on all levels, then Dragon Quest III HD-2D is the ideal game for you! 

We wish you a great time!
