Dragon Quest Video Games Bucket List

The 1986 game that invented the Japanese role-playing game: one hero, one slime at a time.

The handheld one built for playing next to other people, with a shared map and grottos traded on the street.

Five chapters, each following a different party member until they all meet in the last one.

Build your own party, then learn which world you have been walking around; the ending that ties the trilogy up.

The first fully 3D Dragon Quest, with Akira Toriyama's world in cel shading.

Three generations, a marriage you choose and monsters you recruit; the fans' favourite.

The Luminary and a classic turn-based quest; the most traditional great JRPG of its decade.
