I went into Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap expecting another simple platformer... but I ended up finding one of the most impressive 8-bit games I've ever played.

The exploration, transformations, and interconnected world felt way ahead of their time. As someone who grew up with the NES, this was one Master System game I definitely wasn't expecting.

Did you play this back in the day, or are you discovering it now?
