Game description:

Dragon Ball is a side-scrolling action platformer developed by TOSE Software and published by Bandai for the Famicom in 1986 — the first video game based on Akira Toriyama’s Dragon Ball manga. You play as Son Goku, fighting enemies and navigating platform stages in pursuit of the seven Dragon Balls.

How to Play

Arrow keys move Goku. X jumps and Z attacks. Enter is Start, Shift is Select. The game rewards deliberate platforming — read each stage before you commit, because a mistimed jump usually costs a life.
