Ports
The game has been ported to the Sega Master System, PC-Engine, Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, Sinclair ZX Spectrum, Commodore Amiga and Atari ST. The Japanese Master System version was called Monster World: Super Wonder Boy. Tec Toy, Sega's distributor in Brazil, altered the Master System game and released it as Mônica No Castelo Do Dragão. Tec Toy replaced the boy with a young girl named Mônica, a character from Monica's Gang, known as Turma da Mônica in the original Portuguese version. Mônica, known in the English Monica's Gang publication as Monica (without the circumflex), hits enemies with a toy rabbit called Sansão, or Samson as he is known in the English version. This game is in Portuguese.
