a brave young dragon, champion of the MONSTER MAZE, is fated to meet with the mighty PROTAGONIST in a doomed battle... can it unbend the will of reality itself? it doesn't seem all that likely when you think about it.

controls:
arrow keys — move, change selection
z/x/space — dash, advance dialog, make selection
enter — view inventory
esc — view save/load menu

it's also possible to control this game using the touchscreen on an Android or iOS device. tapping the edges and corners of the screen will imitate the functionality of the arrow keys, while a double tap on the little dragon will bring up its inventory screen. it's just an experiment.

the music can be found at the following locations (these are WORLD WIDE WEB links which will teleport you somewhere else!!!):
