    This game features 2 modes 16 bit or current gen graphics that render hand drawn animation. Definitely worth having in a game collection as it is a revisit of the classic version from the previous generation of gamer. Hence the 16 bit option of WonderBoy. Challenging game for any gamer with a high level of fun.

    It's a really fun game, and the hand-drawn aesthetic is awesome. There's a ton of extra chests to find as well, so there's a fair amount of gameplay depending on how much you want to collect. Can be somewhat difficult at times, but it was a great game nonetheless.

    Wonder Boy and the Dragon's Trap is a remake of a Master System game. Amazingly, the game allows you to play with old and new graphics, and the gameplay still holds up. Highly recommended.

    Wonder Boy is a classic game and this remake is just best. The gameplay is smooth and great! The visuals are beautiful! I think this is easily one of the best Switch games to play in hand handle mode.

    This is a remake of Wonder Boy 3 on the sega master system. They updated the graphics, but you can switch to the retro graphics as well. Overall this is a great little game and I recommend it!

    You can switch from old 8-bit graphics to new cartoon style graphics on the fly. The gameplay is very reminiscent from older style gaming systems. It just looks really great.

    I never played the original Wonder Boy, but this is a beautiful looking game. This is a remake done right and still holds up today. It was a fun and different game to explore. Would recommend this to anyone who enjoys old school style games.

    I'm glad games like this still get made. This game brings back great memories, seeing it in HD makes me jealous of gaming kids these days take for granted.

    This is a really fun game. You can choose between a male and female lead character. You can also switch between retro and the new style, which is really neat too.

    This was an old SEGA Master System game that few have probably ever played. The gameplay still holds up well and the art has been modernized and looks fantastic.

    A neat little platformer that, though a little dated now, was innovative for it's time. The ability to switch between modern and retro visuals is fun, and the art style is appealing. Definitely a worthy purchase for retro game lovers

    It was a great game on the Sega Master System and it's even better on the Switch. I love that you can alternate the graphics between modern and 8 bit.
