HVMW ZRR ZURK KV8 That's the password for Hawk man level. Yes, it works. Yes, I still remember it almost 40 years later, and I don't even remember what I had for breakfast, that's how good this game is. Totally recommended.
I liked the extra stuff in this game though I wish there was another hidden boss to use this sword I found at the end on. Also wish the NEC Graphics and Sounds were available from the Turbo Grafix days, but that's just me. All in all I love the gender switching option for the game but I wish the dragon, mouse, fish, tiger, and bird were also changed for it, but again that's just me I guess. All in all I couldn't put it down until the last task.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This game is very well made, my only problem is. dont start your save on hard unless you wanna put a bullet through your nose genuinely think I almost tied a noose at that one ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ [spoiler]pirate ship[/spoiler] part great game/remake anyways 10/10
脚底好似抹了油，气到小嘴抹了蜜
Frustrating enemy patterns, poor collision, and an annoying timer make this feel 'old school' in the worst possible way.
[h1] Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap [/h1] [code] Sadık remake kavramının tanımı. [/code] [h3] Oynanış [/h3] Bu oyun 1989'da çıkan Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap'in remake'i. Görsel tasarım müthiş, oyun resmen görsel şölen. Müzikleri de sıfırdan tekrar çalmışlar ve yeni hali gayet güzel olmuş. Daha yeni nesil bir oyuncu olarak 1989'daki oyunla arasındaki farkı nasıl anlayacağım? Yapımcılar düşünmüş, tek tuşla oyunda herhangi bir yükleme olmadan 1989 grafiklerine ve müziklerine dönebiliyorsunuz. Bu şekilde gelişimi görmek çok güzel. Ama bu sadakat beraberinde oyunun en büyük problemini de getiriyor. Orijinal oyunda checkpoint yok ve remake'te de bunu değiştirmemişler. Ölünce zindanın başına dönüp topladığınız eşyaları kaybediyorsunuz. 2017'de çıkan bir remake için bence en büyük eksik bu. En azından kolay modda checkpoint olabilirdi. [h3] Hikaye [/h3] Karakterimiz Meka Dragon'u yendikten sonra lanetleniyor ve oyun boyunca 5 farklı hayvan formuna dönüşüyor. Ateş püsküren kertenkele, duvarlara tırmanabilen fare, suda yüzebilen pirana, geniş saldırı menziline sahip aslan ve uçabilen kartal. Bölümler de bu formlara göre tasarlanmış ve yanlış formu kullanırsanız bazı yerlerde ilerlemek baya zorlaşıyor. Laneti kaldırmak için gittiğimiz son zindanda ise bütün formları kullanmanız gerekiyor. Oyunun en büyük olayı zaten orijinaline olan sadakati. Bu açıdan gerçekten saygı duyuyorum ama bazı eski tasarım kararlarının aynen bırakılması günümüz oyuncusu için sıkıntı yaratıyor. Bunun dışında görselleri, müzikleri ve oynanışıyla gayet kafa dağıtmalık bir oyun. İndirimde alınabilir.
Looks good. I don't like the music remixes here, though a lot of effort went into them. Can't recommend this unless you have a lot of nostalgia for the original, since it has aged pretty poorly and there are no QoL features (A map would be nice, faster retries after dying, etc) that really make this worth trying these days considering the wealth of indie 2d platformers that vastly outshine this game.
A perfect remake of an old classic. I forgot how hard Wonder Boy 3 went on Sega. I wish this studio would make more remakes.
We love hand-drawn animation in this house. It's a really really good remake. Pick it up.
Owned the remake for the Switch, decided to rebuy this game on Steam because the game is awesome. Brings back so many memories :)
