Wonder Boy The Dragon’s Trap (XCI)
Wonder Boy The Dragon’s Trap It’s clear that the team at Lizardcube are massive fans of the original Wonder Boy III, and that affection translates into what is without a shadow of a doubt the definitive version of a game which has previously been ported to the Game Gear and PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16. The new visuals are sumptuous and the soundtrack – which uses traditional instrumentation rather than computer-generated audio – proves just how catchy the original tunes were. Despite the passing of the years Wonder Boy The Dragon’s Trap remains a perfectly-pitched non-linear action adventure which must surely rank as one of the best of the 8-bit era. Its biggest failing is the fact that like the Master System original, it can be completed in the space of an evening. Still, that evening will be one of the most enjoyable you can possibly spend with your Switch, making this a recommended purchase regardless.
