Gameplay


Dragon Slayer is an early example of the action role-playing game genre, which it laid the foundations for.[2] Building on the prototypical action role-playing elements of Panorama Toh (1983), created by Yoshio Kiya and Nihon Falcom,[9] as well as Namco's The Tower of Druaga (1984),[10] Dragon Slayer is often considered the first true action role-playing game.[2][3] In contrast to earlier turn-based roguelikes, Dragon Slayer was a dungeon crawl role-playing game that was entirely real-time with action-oriented combat,[3] combining arcade style action mechanics with traditional role-playing mechanics.[10]

Dragon Slayer featured an in-game map to help with the dungeon-crawling, required item management due to the inventory being limited to one item at a time,[7] and featured item-based puzzles similar to The Legend of Zelda.[2] Dragon Slayer's overhead action-RPG formula was used in many later games.[6] Along with its competitor, Hydlide, Dragon Slayer laid the foundations for the action RPG genre, including franchises such as Ys and The Legend of Zelda.[7][11]
