Dungeons & Dragons: Warriors of the Eternal Sun is a role-playing video game developed for the Sega Genesis in 1992 by Westwood Associates. It is based on the Dungeons & Dragons game rules and uses creatures and themes from the D&D Hollow World campaign setting. The game was the first and only official D&D product for the Sega Genesis.
Background
The game tells the story of a party of adventurers transported to an unknown world. Duke Barrik's army and a goblin army are sucked into a void during battle, and the Duke's castle is transported to a valley under a brilliant red sun.
The player controls four characters who explore the environment to find allies, encountering beastmen, lizardmen, and the ancient Azcan race. An unseen force slowly turns the Duke's people insane; the party eventually learns that a creature called the Burrower, brought by the immortal Thanatos, is responsible. The party must summon Ka the Preserver to destroy the Burrower and return their people to safety.
