Dragon Buster II: The Seal of Darkness
Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)Action RPG
Dragon Buster II: Yami no Fūin is a Japanese action RPG developed and published by Namco for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993. It continues the Dragon Buster tradition with dungeon exploration, real-time sword fighting, platforming elements, and monster encounters. The player advances through dangerous areas while searching for a route toward the sealed darkness and the enemies associated with it. Unlike a purely menu-driven role-playing game, its progress depends on direct movement, timing, combat, and careful exploration. The game is a relatively obscure late NES release and did not achieve the international recognition of more prominent console RPGs. It remains notable among Japanese NES enthusiasts for combining action-oriented play with maze-like exploration and the established Dragon Buster name.

| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
