Overview
Description

Code of Princess blends fast‑paced, combo‑heavy beat ’em up combat with deep RPG‑style stat boosting and character customization. Players can slash through hordes of enemies while tailoring their heroes' abilities and gear. The game offers a single‑player story, local and online co‑op, and a variety of playable characters, all on PC. Its vibrant anime‑style visuals and hack‑and‑slash gameplay make it a unique hybrid for action‑RPG fans.

The King of Dragons is a 1991 Capcom arcade title that blends hack‑and‑slash action with role‑playing progression. Players battle through 16 short but challenging levels, earning experience points from monsters and gold to level up, boosting health, range, and granting brief invulnerability. The game features three playable characters, each with unique weapons, shields, and magical attacks activated by a simple two‑button control scheme. Hidden Yashichi power‑ups provide extra continues, and cooperative play lets friends join the fantasy quest together.
