About the Game

DRAGON QUEST I & II HD-2D Remake is a stunning reimagining of the first two legendary adventures in the Erdrick trilogy, brought together in one package.

(Players can play either DRAGON QUEST I or II whenever they want by selecting their preferred title on the game's start screen.)

DRAGON QUEST I Story:

Thanks to the heroic efforts of the legendary Erdrick, the Lord of the Underworld was defeated and peace returned to the land of Alefgard. Yet this peace was not to last, as the diabolical Dragonlord has risen and unleashed hordes of monsters on the realm once more. Now, descendant of Erdrick, it is your destiny to defeat this new evil and rescue the world from its plight!

The Setting:
This tale takes place in the land of Alefgard, a realm given shape by a goddess known as Rubiss. The hero travels the land hoping to slay the mighty Dragonlord once and for all. Along the way he meets plenty of charming characters and faces numerous fearsome foes.

DRAGON QUEST II Story:

Many years have passed since Alefgard was saved at the hero's hand, earning him the same title as his storied forebear. The descendants of this Erdrick and his scions founded three kingdoms that thrived in peacetime. Yet, darkness stirs once more and a sudden invasion of malicious monsters plunges the world into shadow again. All that stands between the forces of evil and their wicked ambitions is a band of young princes and princesses of Erdrick's lineage. The time has come for them to venture forth and honor their ancestor's legacy!

The Setting:
Explore a world filled with locales visited by the legendary hero as well as a host of new towns, castles, caves, and dungeons.
As the story progresses, you'll obtain a ship, which will allow you to traverse the seas and rivers, and broaden your horizons ever further.

The Party:
The Prince of Midenhall, the game's protagonist, is joined on his quest by his cousins the Prince of Cannock, the Princess of Moonbrooke and, entirely new to this version of the game, the Princess of Cannock. These four descendants of the legendary hero, Erdrick, band together to protect the world from evil forces.

Turn-based Battles:
Enjoy the traditional turn-based battles the series is known for. Attack with an assembly of weapons and let loose all kinds of spells and abilities to slay the many menacing monsters.

DQ1: Even if the game is a bit short, the game design was absolutely not made for one party member. Keeps the charm in art direction of DQ3, without really anything else memorable or fun. Feel free to skip. DQ2: Cute

The first game is very barebones on all fronts. There's barely any writing, the game doesn't hide the fact you are everyone's errand boy and you have no party - you get your ass kicked all by yourself. Not much to

Playing these games, I loved them both, two was my absolute favorite. Hearing how different it was and how for some fans the 2 remake felt more like a brand new game made me smile. Can definitely recommend this to fans

Dragon Quest 1-HD? It's alright, a bit of a novelty by modern dragon quest standards. But Dragon Quest 2-HD? Holy cow this game is fun, there's so much stuff in the game and the character designs have a lot of variety

Now that I’ve finished both games, how did I like this collection? I loved it! The HD-2D visuals are absolutely stunning, with beautiful lighting that makes every town, dungeon, and slime look like a painting come to

TL/DR: Classic Dragon Quest, light hearted on the surface, uplifting soundtrack, all fantasy tropes with a Japanese twist, grinding required though made easier with modern quality of life features, an endearing story
