* [[Multiple Endings]]: There's one [[Nonstandard Game Over|bad ending]] ( {{spoiler|Try to join the Dragonlord.}}) and [[Older Than They Think|three good endings]]: save the princess and return her to the King before defeating the Dragonlord, return the princess after defeating the Dragonlord, or don't save the princess.

* [[Nonstandard Game Over]]: {{spoiler|If you accept the Dragonlord's offer to rule together in the NES version, you get a badly translated speech, the text turns your-HP-are-low red, and the game freezes. This was changed in the remakes.}}
