Dragon's Crown is a side-scrolling, beat 'em up 2d action adventure game for the Playstation. Spiritual successor to the 1994 arcade game, "Dungeons & Dragons: The Tower of Doom", it is a dungeon-crawling videogame where a party of four adventurers come to the kingdom of Hydeland in search of adventure, eventually uncovering the mystery of the eponymous Dragon's Crown and why so many want to possess it.
There are six different classes in the game, and a party can be made of any combination of four of these. You can go with a balanced party, or just take one class four times.
- The Amazon: Actually the orphaned daughter of a noble family who was brought up in a barbarian tribe. A musclegirl with a flamboyantly sexualized set of hips, legs and ass, in contrast to the Sorceress. Functions as a nimble, high damage berserker that wields two-handed weapons, but who has low defense and whose attacks have a long wind-up.
- The Dwarf: A hugely muscled, skimpily clad dwarven warrior who relies on his twin hammers to crush his opponents, seeking revenge on the dragon that devastated his people. He has the special ability to throw enemies and objects around, but he's impeded by low range, lackluster aerial attacks, and a slow movement rate.
- The Elf: A female elven ranger who specializes in projectiles. Her mystical talents give her a versatile arsenal of attack options, but she's lacking in both offense and defense.
- The Fighter: Your standard heavily armored human warrior. Doesn't have a lot of range, but he can tank like a motherfucker.
- The Sorceress: A ridiculously voluptuous human witch; in contrast to the wizard, she focuses on supportive magic, using curses and summoned skeleton minions to bolster.
- The Wizard: A human spellcaster who may lack speed and be slow to launch his spells, but whose destructive elemental arsenal can decimate the enemy, if you can manage his need for mana. He's journeying to find a way to cure his sister, whom he inadvertently trapped in a state of living death as part of a bungled spell to heal her.
