The pyramid is the most original dungeon in ''Dragon Quest III'' as it is filled with traps, puzzles, and special limitations.  It also has a completely unique soundtrack, though the remakes of the game would incorporate it in both [[Asham]]'s night theme and the a floor of the [[Cloudsgate Citadel (bonus dungeon)|Cloudsgate Citadel]] which uses the 2nd floor of the Pyramid.

====Golden Claws====
====Golden Claws====
The [[Golden claws]] weapon is hidden in a tomb in B2 of the pyramid. B2 is only accessible via a hidden staircase which can be found by searching a specific tile in B1. After collecting the claws, the party will encounter a battle at every step until they exit the pyramid. This makes it the most complex weapon to acquire in the game. Although it is accessible when the party first visits the pyramid, it is unlikely that the heroes have the strength to retrieve it and escape without dying until later in the game. The reward is worth the trial by fire, however, as the golden claws provide a substantial attack boost over the [[Iron claw]]s.
