The new version offers updated graphics and many gameplay and interface improvements. However, it is still a truly old-school production, where deadly traps and impossible-to-win battles have become commonplace. For the true fans, the creators have also prepared the option to enable the classic interface.

It has been particularly well received by Japanese gamers, and this production is often cited as an inspiration for the creators of the Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest series.
So, if you’re interested in this classic game, the premiere of the updated version is a great opportunity to check it out.
