Difficulty

The NES Dragon Quest that still has a cult: a world that folds, a class-change temple, and a plot that becomes Dragon Warrior 1 if you live that long. Grind with a plan.

Tips

  • Start here

    Soldier, Priest, Wizard, then a fourth you like

    Class change at Dhama after level 20 keeps half the stats. Don't make everyone a Sage on the same day. Talk to the old men at the inn.

  • Secrets

    The leaves of the world tree are a map fold

    You're playing a prequel. Keep the orb hunt list. A Thief with the right seeds is a better Scout than a second Soldier. Save before Baramos, then again before the real last island.
