Alisia Dragoon is a platformer/shooter game for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, released in 1992. You play as Alisia, a young woman who can shoot lightning from her hands and control four different magical creatures. Your goal is to stop the evil god Zaltec from destroying the world with his army of monsters. The game features eight levels, each with a boss at the end.
The game has four difficulty settings: Easy, Normal, Hard, and Very Hard. The higher the difficulty, the more damage you take from enemies and the less health you recover from items. Alisia’s lightning attack has a limited range and power, but it can be charged up by holding the attack button. The longer you charge, the more powerful and wider the lightning becomes. However, charging also drains your magic meter, which can only be replenished by collecting blue orbs from enemies or items. Alisia can also summon one of four creatures to assist her in combat: a dragon, a ball of fire, a boomerang, and a homing bird. Each creature has its own attack pattern and magic cost. You can switch between creatures by pressing the select button. You can also deactivate the creature by pressing the select button again, which will save your magic meter. The game has a variety of enemies and obstacles, such as flying bats, giant spiders, falling rocks, lava pits, and electric fences. Some enemies can only be damaged by certain creatures or by charged lightning. Some obstacles can be destroyed by your attacks, while others can be avoided by jumping or ducking.
