Dragon Quest V's generational scope and monster-collecting system make it a standout in the series. The player's journey spans decades, starting with childhood and culminating in a pivotal decision regarding family and legacy. Recruiting a menagerie of slimes, dragons, and other creatures to fight alongside the hero offers a unique tactical layer to the traditional turn-based combat, rewarding experimentation and strategic team building.

About Dragon Quest V: Tenkuu no Hanayome

View Game Details
Dragon Quest V begins with a brief scene of the Hero's birth. Afterwards, the Hero, as a child, and his father, Pankraz travel to meet Sancho, an old friend. The Hero meets Bianca and the two explore the haunted Uptaten Towers, where they obtain a mysterious Golden Orb. The next day, the Hero notices a man in the town who looks similar to him, albeit much older. That man asks the Hero to show him the Golden Orb and, after returning it, asks him to take care of his father Pankraz. The first section of the story ends with Pankraz being killed by Ladja, a mysterious member of the Order of Zugzwang, when he tries to protect his son and Prince Harry. The two children are then taken into slavery.
