In case you were wondering from the pictures, yes, this is simply Wonder Boy III with a different name, new intro and slightly altered story. Not necessarily a bad thing, but don't buy it if you've already played WB3. It's almost exactly the same. (Why do they do things like that?) If you haven't played either game, you should know that Dynastic Hero is a very fun side-scrolling action game with mild RPG elements. It's not too short or too long, and the music is catchy.
Dynastic Hero is one of the best games on the PC-Engine. A conversion of the Sega Genesis game Wonder Boy in Monster World (aka Monster World III), Dynastic Hero is a platform action/adventure game.

Like everyone else said this is a conversion of WB in Monster World for the sega genesis. If you are lucky enough to own this game then you know it's one of the greatest games ever created. I am fortunate to have received a english copy of the game. And I must say this version is way better than the genesis version.

They both have noticable differences and are better in there own ways. However the duo version wins in the end. If you are lookin
