Dragon Scroll: Yomigaerishi Maryuu (ドラゴンスクロール 甦りし魔竜), or Dragon Scroll: Resurrection of the Demon Dragon in this translation, is a Japan-only Famicom action RPG, released by Konami in 1987. Its actually a very fun game, with only a couple overly cryptic secrets in it.
There are some easter eggs I missed at the end of this playthrough, heres a video of them if you wanna check them out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7c2gb9KAa0c
This is the 2008 fan translation by KingMike (Hacking), Eien Ni Hen (Translation) and FlashPV (Design). You can check it out here: https://www.romhacking.net/translations/1267/
Since there are no clear spots for chapter splits, the chapters will mostly have the name of a notable event occurring at the start of that chapter. Considering the path I mapped out is (intentionally) all over the place, I figured having these chapters would help people skim when and where in the video a specific item is acquired. Basically, click chapter, rewind until you find a familiar spot, and go from there.
This playthrough went pretty well. A lot of stuff that could have gone wrong didnt. I was worried if I was overdoing some of the monster farming bits, but considering how fortuitous the last level up was, I think it was worth it. Thanks to that, the only game over was the intentional one, which I wanted to do just as a quick demonstration of the game over screen. All it does is respawn you with half your max MP, and I knew I could restore it soon enough. I also got insanely lucky placement with the Castor boss.
Oh, and happy holidays if you happen to be reading this around the upload date, or around the same time in the future.

Stream Title: Eight Books, Zero Scrolls
Live Notification: Brigands I can handle, but this talk of dragons? Worlds gone mad, I say.
Stream Description: Dragon Scroll is a rather obscure 1987 Konami title. Its a Zelda-esque action RPG telling a story of dragons, magic and warring kingdoms. It was never officially translated, so Im using the only fan-translation, credited to KingMike, Eien Ni Hen and FlashPV. Its got some typos and other errors, but its mostly solid.
Thisll be a regular playthrough, I wont go through every secret or find every hint, but I will try to cover as much as I can on the path Ive written down. Approx 1.5 hours if nothing goes wrong.

Another game from my youth I felt like playing. The subweapons are terribly balanced in this game, the Thunder Gas being practically worthless due to its pathetic damage, the Heavy Gas being okay, but often outclassed by the regular gun, and the Arrow Gas being an utter beast of a weapon, dealing triple damage (unless firing point-blank), opening new paths through its use as a platform as well as being able to use it like a stronger Heavy Gas by pressing Select with an arrow mid-air.
Stream title was a reference to the theme song, which is probably clear if youre aware of it.
