Single-player side-scrolling adventure RPG

Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap is a single-player adventure game that employs hand-drawn graphics in tandem with side-scrolling action reminiscent of classic side-scrolling bundles, such as Sonic the Hedgehog and Super Mario Brothers. Wonder Boy is further defined by colorful backgrounds and an entertaining storyline.

Originally released in 2017, many consider this game to represent a cult classic. Players who enjoy side-scrolling action or are drawn to entirely original graphics will likely be interested in what Wonder Boy has to offer.

Breaking the curse

The main character has been transformed into a half-lizard monstrosity due to the curse of an enemy known as the Meka-Dragon. The only way that he can regain his human form is to uncover a relic known as the Salamander Cross. Players will need to explore vast digital environments if they hope to lift the powerful spell.

Interesting character progression

One of the main goals of this game is to slay a series of increasingly powerful dragons. The character will then transform into a different mythical entity after each one is vanquished. Each transformation is associated with its own strengths and weaknesses.

The option to adopt retro-themed gameplay

Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap is also unique in the fact that it is possible for players to switch into an 8-bit mode if desired. This will provide an overall experience similar to classic bundles, such as the Super Mario Bros. franchise.

Fluid animations for old-school enthusiasts
