Sega Mega Drive: Alisia Dragoon

Year: 1992
Genre: Run 'n Gun
Players: 1
Our Rating: 7/10


Mini Review

Alisia Dragoon can be described best as a fairy tale run and gun game. The basic story line is that Alisia must defeat the main boss in order to retrieve the silver star. The game play is rather good for one of the earlier Mega Drive titles. Your main weapon is lightning which emanates from Alisias hands. This can be charged up for larger attacks. You cannot aim specifically at your enemies.

The tactic is to aim in their general direction and let the lightning fill the screen. In addition to this lightning attack you have your own personal Dragon/Dragoon to assist you. The dragon can be upgraded and will fight along side you throughout the beautifully rendered levels. During boss fights however the dragon will not be able to assist you. Overall this is a solid title for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis. It’s a game that adds a little more than most to this rather overstocked genre of retro gaming.
