Welcome to the Dragon Quest IV Walkthrough for the Nintendo DS with free live support and featuring a relatively spoiler free walkthrough that you can almost use without reading
DRAGON QUEST V PREVIEW
While the graphics in Dragon Quest V borrow heavily from Dragon Quest IV, the environments are more diverse and feature a little more animation
The casinos are more interesting and include slime races and 'life size' board games (with battles and items to find)
The early weapons are generally more useful including boomerangs that deal out damage to all enemies
Monsters may offer to join your party and most will learn spells
Boss monsters no longer appear in the Big Book of Beasts
A Whac-A-Slime mini-game uses the touch screen
King Minikin's rewards are now more like a shop where you can use the mini medals to get what you want
Specialty items can be traded with other players
Characters can equip multiple accessories
A world map has been made
A giant version of the board game (spanning multiple floors) becomes available at the end of the game
All monsters have been found (29 monsters recruited) and their locations have been recorded (including at which floors they appear in towers and dungeons)
GAME NOTES
Sir Roseguardin (found inside Rosehill) does not appear in Chapter Six, so make sure you get him added into the Big Book of Beasts before then
Additionally, Sir Roseguardin will only drop the Sphere of Silence if he's the last monster to fall in the battle
