Challenge of the Dragon (USA) (Unl) (Color Dreams)
Challenge of the Dragon, released by Color Dreams for the NES, stands out as a typical example of the many third-party titles released late in the system's lifespan. Gameplay features classic RPG mechanics with a focus on exploration and combat. The US version differs somewhat from its Asian counterpart, although both versions share a similar core structure. The game's story revolves around a quest to rescue a princess, a common trope in the fantasy genre of the time. Color Dreams, though associated with many lower-budget games, delivered a playable title that offered hours of simple action RPG gameplay. Graphics are simple by the standards of the time but function well enough to create an adequate atmosphere. While lacking the depth and polish of higher-budget releases, it provides a relatively complete gaming experience within the NES's limitations. It stands as a representative of a specific era and style of development within the NES's game library and is appreciated by some retro gamers.
