Bring on Dragon Warrior III. This version is leaps and bounds beyonds Dragon Warrior I.
This is a great game, but like the first you spend a lot of time "grinding" out to level up. This is nowhere near as bad as the first, but toward the end of the game this increases exponentially. The graphics are in line... Read Full Review

Takes the first game, follows its formula, and improves on it in every way. A classic not to be missed by fans.
If you enjoyed the first DW but wanted a bigger world with more variety and an expanded, immersive story, than you wanted Dragon Warrior II. The game cemented Dragon Quest as a franchise to envy in Japan, and made Enix (... Read Full Review

"The Sequel to the first RPG most of us played."
Dragon Warrior II is the sequel to Enix's Dragon Warrior. Much like any RPG, you have to save the world by defeating an evil wizard. But unlike in Dragon Warrior I, where you travelled alone, in this game you have 2 comp... Read Full Review

Dragon Warrior II is a good sequel... but not as good as I would have expected.
Dragon Warrior II was a game I was expecting a lot from, since it was the sequel of Dragon Warrior I and was released after Final Fantasy I. I have to admit that I was a little bit disappointed by the gameplay and by the... Read Full Review
