Once he clears all the enemies, he will proceed to fight the dragon on the top screen - using the tomahawk (if he has it) for increased damage. The game plays more like a platformer, like ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]''. When Link uses his sword, the shield goes to his back to block attacks, adding a level of strategy to fighting. |

Moblins are simply called "Goblin" and Ghinis as "Ghosts", though their artwork significantly resembles their NES counterparts. It's possible the dragons are meant to be [[Aquamentus]], though the resemblance is less apparent. |
