Based on the legendary novel 'Dragons of Autumn Twilight,' Heroes of the Lance brings the world of Krynn to the NES. Players control the eight Companions of the Lance as they quest to recover the Disks of Mishakal from the ruined city of Xak Tsaroth. The game utilizes a side-scrolling perspective where players must manage a line of characters, using each hero's specialized skills—from Raistlin's magic to Tanis's archery—to survive. While challenging, the game is a faithful recreation of the early Dragonlance saga, making it a must-play for fans of Dungeons & Dragons history.
