About

Dragon Fantasy is a retro-style role-playing video game developed by The Muteki Corporation. It was originally created for iOS, but was subsequently released for Mac, Microsoft Windows, and Android phones. On April 9, 2012, Sony Computer Entertainment of America announced on their blog that an enhanced "16-bit" version would be launching on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita. The game was originally created as a homage to series designer Adam Rippon's late father, sculptor and professor Thomas Rippon, who died in December 2010.

Dragon Fantasy features classic Japanese role-playing game gameplay, including random battles, lengthy treasure-filled dungeons, and a story about a lone hero saving the world. The game features numerous homages to other games in the genre, most notably Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, but also Lufia and EarthBound, among others.

Story

Dragon Fantasy Book I features three canonical chapters, plus one intermission chapter based on Minecraft.

Chapter One, "Dragon Fantasy", centers around the character Ogden, who is based on the series creator's father Thomas Rippon, a diminished former hero getting back into the business of saving the world. It also sets up many of the characters and themes for the rest of the game.
