  • Dragon Quest VI: Aflame Released

    The Dragon Quest VI: Aflame respinner on SFC has been released courtesy of clymax. The mod is for use with Noprgress’s English fan translation v0.9 Beta 2.

    The mod is unofficial and unaffiliated with Square Enix.

    A respinner refers to an internal randomizer, as opposed to an external one, which we refer to as a repatcher.

    With a respinner, simply reset the game to play a new randomization. Some respinners even let you play a vanilla game with enhanced QoL.
