| In the NES booklet a dragon has kidnapped Princess Claire of the Kingdom of Izander, and four fighters set out to save her: Ray Jack the knight, the most experienced, goes first; Kaliva the wizard, with magic and good jumping; Barusa the monster, scaly, with strong defenses; and Toby the thief, the youngest and quickest. Each first builds his abilities alone, and then they come together. | p. 4 (image 4), The Storyp. 4 (image 4)p. 4 (image 4)p. 4 (image 4)p. 4 (image 4)p. 4 (image 4)p. 4 (image 4) | Manual |

| In the NES booklet the screen scrolls down as the character moves up, and he is crushed if objects push him to the bottom of the screen. Obstacles such as trees and plots of land can be destroyed to reveal hidden items. Items raise speed, jumping, and weapon and shield strength, one item lowers life, and hidden caves hold more. | p. 10 (image 10), Game Play Screenp. 10 (image 10)p. 10 (image 10)p. 6 (image 6), How to Playp. 14 (image 14), Itemsp. 14 (image 14), Items, LIFE DOWNp. 14 (image 14), Items, JUMPp. 10 (image 10) | Manual |
| In the NES booklet each character has his own magic spell, used only in the final stage. One element of each spell is hidden in each of the first four stages, and all of a spell's elements must be collected before it can be used in Stage Five; it can be used only once. There the leader fires his weapon and can cast his spell, and arrows in Stage Five change the team's formation. The page of spells names Naizath, Balbath, Cetune and Zainen; which character has which hasn't been read. | p. 7 (image 7)p. 6 (image 6), How to Playp. 7 (image 7)p. 7 (image 7)p. 10 (image 10)p. 11 (image 11) | Manual |
