About Dragon Power

Dragon Power is an adaptation of a Japanese anime property, though the localization process altered some elements. The central objective involves the protagonists Goku and Nora searching for seven crystal balls to receive a wish from the Dragon Emperor.

Gameplay shifts between an overhead perspective and occasional side-view combat sequences. Goku's actions include jumping, direct attacks, and projecting a wind wave against opponents. The journey is presented as challenging, partly due to a rival faction also seeking the artifacts.

Character progression is handled through power-ups that enhance Goku's capabilities, unlocking more potent techniques as the game advances.
