      Gameplay


      Slayers is a first-person view dungeon crawler role-playing video game in the tradition of Wizardry, using only computer mouse controls. Its story follows the adventures of Lina Inverse and Gourry Gabriev, aided by up to two more party companions. Together, they explore the dungeons and other locations surrounding the city of Wilnan and fight enemies in random encounters and boss battles. In Wilnan, the player can rest and heal the party, swap or revive characters, and visit stores and story locations.
      Additional party members include Slayers and Slayers Special light novel series characters Naga the Serpent, Zelgadiss Graywords, Amelia Wil Tesla Saillune, Philionel El Di Saillune, Lemmy Martin, and Meena, as well four original characters: Kim, Marin, Junon, and Lass. The third character slot is up for the player's choosing, but the fourth one is reserved for the story-related companions. The player directly controls only Lina and the characters do not level up.


      Plot


      The game begins with traveling Lina with Gourry as they are short of money left due to Lina's habit of her powerful spells inflicting way too much of collateral damage on their jobs, such as with her having just blown up an entire castle instead of just ridding of monsters. Luckily, they learn of a legend according to which a nearby city of Wilnan is the supposed location of the hidden treaure of a giant dragon. Upon reaching the city, they reunite with several of their past companions and begin investigating some areas around the city.
      First, they go to some old ruins where get involved in the Chimera of the Year contest by gathering the creatures for young sorcerer Kim, and Lina ends up selling his winning chimera. Afterwards, they go to a nearby forest in the center of which stands a tower full of magic traps, where they encounter bandit girl Marin. Next, they decide to check a canyon and encounter a local girl named Junon who falls in love with Gourry and guides them to her village, which ends up destroyed when Lina's spell accidentally activates a dormant volcano during a lizardmen attack. Finally, they go to an old mine where they are joined by Lass, a mercenary girl who knows Gourry from his mercenary days, and the only survivor of a group that had found the dragon. They also come across both Kim and Marin before reaching the dragon temple, where they witness the dragon being defeated by Kim's chimera controlled by a rich merchant from the city. Lina destroys a magic crystal controlling the chimera, which goes out of control and the group manages to slay it. After the battle, Lina leaves as soon as possible, as she does not want to be blamed for everything that happened.
