A [[Famicom]] version was retooled and expanded by [[Compile (software company)|Compile]] and published by [[Tokyo Shoseki]]. An [[enhanced remake]] was released for [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] in 1999 by [[Unbalance]]. It is the third in the [[Dragon Slayer (series)|''Dragon Slayer'' series]], preceded by ''[[Dragon Slayer II: Xanadu|Xanadu]]'' and followed by ''[[Dragon Slayer IV]]'', though, as most games in the ''Dragon Slayer'' series, have no relation to each other outside of a few gameplay concepts. ''Romancia'' is a very simple and brightly colored game in comparison to the other ''Dragon Slayer'' titles, hence the name "Dragon Slayer Jr." ==Story== The game begins with Prince Fan Freddy (ファン・フレディ) outside the castle. Like ''[[Dragon Slayer II: Xanadu|Xanadu]]'', Fan can speak with the king for some free equipment. The goal is to rescue Princess Selina (セリナ) within the 30 minute time frame. ==Gameplay== ''Romancia''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s style is fairly simple. Movement is controlled with the arrow keys, and attacking is done with the action key. Unlike ''[[Dragon Slayer II: Xanadu|Xanadu]]'', there are almost no statistics, and zero customization. The game consists largely of two screens with a few small sub-areas. The player has only thirty minutes to complete the game, further illustrating the light and accessible nature of the title versus the oppressive underground complexes of ''Xanadu''. Despite this, the game is still rather unforgiving and the player will likely use [[trial-and-error]] or a [[walkthrough]] to solve some of the puzzles. ==References== {{reflist}} {{Dragon Slayer series}} {{Stub}}
