| '''Hargon's Castle''' is the final dungeon in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]''. It is the location where the heroes fight the 2 antagonists of ''Dragon Quest II'', [[Hargon]] and [[Malroth]]. It is located in the [[Plateau of Rhone | Rhone]] region in [[Torland]].
| |
| | |
| ==Overview==
| |
| Hargon's Castle is disguised by magic to make its interior appear identical to [[Midenhall| Midenhall Castle]]. In order to dispel the magic, the [[Rubiss Charm]] must be used upon entering the castle. Upon revealing the true castle interior, the [[Evil Statue (Dragon Quest II)|Eye of Malroth]] must be used to reveal the hidden 2F stairway.
| |
| ===Mini Bosses===
| |
| Prior to engaging Hargon, the heroes must fight 3 mini bosses as they proceed through the castle. These bosses are never mentioned in the game and do not appear on the floor maps. These encounters occur in specific locations in the castle and begin the same as normal enemy encounters do. The 3 bosses are [[Atlas]], [[Bazuzu]], and [[Zarlox]].
| |
| ===Final Bosses===
| |
| Upon reaching the final floor, the heroes will fight [[Hargon]]. Upon his defeat, the heroes must fight [[Malroth]] to complete their quest and finish the game.

| ==Remake==
| |
| *The illusion of Midenhall Castle has several changes in the [[Game Boy|GBC]] Version compared to how it functioned in the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] Version:
| |
| **The throne room and prison can be entered, while in the NES Version, you can't go down the stairs.
| |
| **The [[Teleportal|Travel Door]] to the [[List of shrines in Dragon Quest II#Shrine west of Zahan|Shrine west of]] [[Zahan]] acts as if it's transporting you, only for the characters to remain in the castle. In the NES Version, stepping on it, much like the stairs does nothing.
| |
| **In the NES Version, the dialogue from the [[Non-Player Character|NPC]]s are the same as the actual ones from Midenhall. In the GBC Version, each NPC tries to convince [[Hero (Dragon Quest II)|The Prince of Midenhall]] that Hargon is a fair and benevolent rule, thus it's unnecessary to fight against him.
| |
| *The chests that remain after shedding the illusion contain nothing in the NES Version, while in the GBC Version, they contain cursed equipment.
