Dragon Slayer
From Free net encyclopedia
Dragon Slayer is a computer role-playing game published in 1984 by Falcom on the NEC PC-8801 and Fujitsu FM-7 computer systems, giving rise to a series of sequels, all created by Falcom. Many of the early titles in this series were released for the MSX and MSX2 computers and other early Japanese PCs and later ported to the consoles.
Although often referred to as a series, Dragon Slayer is more like a body of work from producer Yoshio Kiya. There is no continuity in plot or even genre, but most of the games use role playing elements.
Of the games originally released for the Nintendo Family Computer, Dragon Slayer IV: Drasle Family was released on the North American Nintendo Entertainment System as Legacy of the Wizard. An English version (for DOS) of Sorcerian got released in North America.
