Romancia: Dragon Slayer Jr.This game exists in two editions, one for the MSX1 and one for the MSX2 with better graphics.

The game is a departure from Dragon Slayer RPG-oriented gameplay style. It tends more towards medieval-themed platformer action.

However, instead of receiving experience points and becoming stronger, you simply must attack quicker (by bumping into your opponent on platform levels) and jump higher.Action Fantasy
