The iconic arcade platformer 'Wonder Boy' by Japanese creator Ryuichi Nishizawa, released in 1986, turned out to be the headstone of a long-lasting, popular series, called 'Monster World' with later releases. 32 years later, Game Atelier and FDG joined forces to continue this critically acclaimed series with 'Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom'.
