RPG Adventure Game Dragonia: Quest for the Golden Crown

'Dragonia' is a role-playing game set in the mystical land of Dragonia. Players embark on a quest starting in the Forest of Echoes, where they face the Dark Hordes of Zeridan. The primary objective is to recover the magical Golden Crown, hidden by Zeridan to prevent its power from being used against him. The player, as Cebrenia, must navigate this perilous world without a spellbook, relying on creativity to craft new spells using magical letters found throughout the land.

The game's narrative begins with Cebrenia leaving the Great Wizard Council in frustration, determined to prove himself. Upon using the Pendant of Light, he discovers Dragonia, a land once peaceful but now under the oppressive rule of Zeridan. The game unfolds as Cebrenia attempts to retrieve the Crown, hoping to gain acceptance into the Council by demonstrating his abilities.

Dragonia's expansive world includes forests, rivers, villages, and temples. Players will encounter various objects and creatures, some helpful and others hostile. The environment is filled with undead creatures, adding to the challenges Cebrenia faces. The Doomlands and Shadowlands are particularly dangerous, cursed with evil magic and eternal darkness, respectively.

In 'Dragonia', players must strategically create spells by collecting and manipulating magical letters. The game challenges players to think critically as they explore the vast terrain, seeking scrolls to aid in their quest. The real-time gameplay adds urgency, with a time limit to complete the mission. The game is available on the ZX Spectrum 128K, showcasing vibrant graphics and engaging design by Astros Software.
