Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap - PlayStation 4 - Nicalis

Shape-shift through Monster Land and break the Meka-Dragon’s curse in a reimagined side-scrolling adventure.

Transformed into a half-human/half-lizard by the Meka-Dragon, a lonesome adventurer sets out across Monster Land in search of a cure. This non-stop action/adventure platformer on PlayStation 4 blends modern enhancements with classic charm for a nostalgic yet fresh experience.

Master six distinct forms—human, lizard, mouse, piranha, lion, and hawk—each with unique abilities to conquer tricky traps and uncover hidden paths. Face fearsome dragon bosses like the Zombie Dragon, Mummy Dragon, and Samurai Dragon. Choose to play as the series’ classic hero Hu-Man or step into the shoes of the long-awaited co-star Hu-Girl. At any time, even mid-gameplay, you can switch the graphics and/or audio from modern versions to the 8-bit originals. A memorable soundtrack, based on Shinichi Sakamoto’s original compositions and re-imagined with classical instruments, rounds out the experience.

Take up the quest and lift the curse—your adventure begins now.
