The majority of your time will be spent defeating various villains and mythological creatures. The brief story is honestly a good thing as it allows you to jump back into a new stage quickly with few interruptions. All plot and exposition is delivered by an ever present narrator, who also offers more insight into the various areas you visit. There are few characters introduced during the game, and none of them have much in the way of development. As a fresh adventurer in the land of Hydeland, you end up being involved in various incidents related to the titular Dragon’s Crown. This latest re-release has everything that made the first game so great, but those looking for new additions may be a little disappointed.Īs with most games in the genre, Dragon’s Crown Pro places little focus on its story. This is why the original release of Dragon’s Crown was such a surprise, being both our favourite Vanillaware game and most played beat ’em up of all time. Each had something special, but at the same time had unavoidable issues that detracted from the games as a whole. Muramasa had some excellent boss fights, but the stuff in-between was a little lacking. Odin’s Sphere told an amazing story, but felt like a chore to play at times.
We’ve always had a fondness for Vanillaware games, even if they’re somewhat inconsistent.
