    The Dragon Quest V: Molten mod on SFC has been released courtesy of clymax. The mod is for use with DeJap’s English fan translation v2.01 final.

    The mod is unofficial and unaffiliated with Square Enix.

    Like all of clymax’s rando mods, it’s a self-randomizer, so just simply reset the game to play a new randomization.

    Development Build: Features

    The dev build is on the rotation of mods that can be obtained through our Whirlwind Fiesta annual summer event. For players who do not wish to join the event, do not wish to use Discord, or wish to support the hack author, early access is also available via Game Jolt.

    Items randomized.

    Duplicates can be rolled. Seeding not yet supported.

    No random encounters in the overworld. Hold B to get random encounters.

    Return and Outside spells are given to start.

    Gained experience and gold each boosted to 64x.

    So, what do you think? How do you think DQ5 on SFC holds up today? Which DQ remains your favorite today? Comment below, or come check us out on Discord.
