Korona: The Movie: DDDD - 42 - Map Completion
All the crystals are shattered and the way to the boss is open, but there's still more map to explore! Let's finish seeing what's on floor 9 before even thinking about taking on the final final boss.
If there's extra time after filling in the unexplored areas, I might switch the party around a bit and grind out some more experience. And hopefully rare drops. As I've mentioned several times, I'm fairly certain the Dragon can drop Nyal's best weapon, which also enables her final skill, but it's a very rare drop.
Game Summary -
DanDan Dungeon Daibouken (だんだんダンジョン大冒険, roughly, "The Great On and On Dungeon Adventure") is a bonus first-person dungeon exploration jRPG set in the labyrinth beneath Belzebuth Castle, and sufficiently long and involved that it could stand separately as its own game, if one with virtually no plotline.
At the end of each floor, Korona must face one of her friends as a boss, who then joins the party when beaten. With the help of her allies, she must conquer eight floors full of monsters, tricks, and traps to finally reach Noel. There's an ending upon beating her, but then Noel joins and the way to an even more challenging ninth floor opens up. Assuming you can find it...
Also, the game includes quite a few external references, including a surprising number of monsters loosely based on (usually B-list) horror films, like The Deadly Spawn, TerrorVision, The Day The World Ended, and Frogs. On the other hand, the main story does mention Korona's mother enjoying such movies, and Noel joining her after moving in with them, so it makes a certain amount of sense.
