When you start the game, you move very slowly and have a tiny sword with horrible range. Since this game doesn’t have a lot of special items or abilities to help you get to new areas, this is how it handles some situations which require you to do something you normally can’t. For example, one of these characters is a little fairy who helps you find the ocarina in the first dungeon. They don’t do much fighting, they just allow you to progress through specific parts of the dungeon. These NPCs are more like keys than combat helpers, though. This feature seems to have been inspired by WBIII: Monster Lair. You’ll also get a small NPC who will follow you around through the dungeon. After you reach a new village and talk to the people in it, you’ll be given a reason to go to the nearby dungeon and kill the monsters in it. Similarly to Dragon Quest, each town or village has its own little scenario that ties into the overarching story.

Their forms are more varied and creative, they have more attacks, and their patterns are more complex. The dungeons in this game are bigger, less linear, have more puzzles, switches, and platforming.

They’re no longer simple corridors full of enemies. The dungeons in this game are a huge improvement over the ones in Dragon’s Trap. While Dragon’s Trap only had one small village tying major areas together, this game has one big city tying major areas together and smaller villages closer to some of the dungeons. The game takes place in a free-roaming world full of towns, dungeons, and enemy filled areas tying them together. The game’s structure is very similar to Dragon’s Trap’s, but much bigger in scope. He just wakes up one day and decides that he’s had it with all these monsters in Monster World, I guess. We don’t get any more backstory for Shion at all. It turns out that Monster World has been invaded by monsters, again. The story follows a young man named Shion as he sets off on a quest to rid Monster World of monsters. It doesn’t really have much to do with the story of Dragon’s Trap, but it does play a lot like it. While it is the followup to Wonder Boy III: Dragon’s Trap, it was released after the run and gun/shoot ‘em up, Wonder Boy III: Monster Lair, which is not part of the Monster World subseries. Wonder Boy in Monster World is the third game in the Wonder Boy subseries, Monster World. It is also available on the Wii Virtual Console, Xbox 360, on Steam for PC, and there is even a Sega Master System version.
