''Monster Lair'' is unlike other games in the ''Wonder Boy'' series, though it at least resembles the original more than it does the various ''Monster World'' games. Though it still contains platforming segments, Wonder Boy's sword fires projectiles, and the screen auto-scrolls to the right.

Wonder Boy's sword fires projectiles, and the screen auto-scrolls to the right. The game can be played with a single player or with two players simultaneously.

Wonder Boy III: Monster Lair (ワンダーボーイIII モンスターレア) is a Sega System 16 game in the Wonder Boy series. It is not to be confused with Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap, which is actually the fourth game in the series that was mislabeled in localization. It is the last game in the "Wonder Boy arcade trilogy".

It was later ported to the Mega Drive. It was also brought to the PC Engine CD-ROM² hardware as an actual Wonder Boy title, although Sega was not involved with it.

Gameplay

Leo and Princess Purapril

The game combines elements of a platformer and a shooter. It is unlike other games in the Wonder Boy series, though it resembles the original more than it does the Monster World games. Wonder Boy's sword fires projectiles, and the screen auto-scrolls to the right. The game can be played with a single player or with two players simultaneously. Player one plays as a green-haired boy named Leo and player plays as a pink-haired girl named Princess Purapril (Priscilla in the Western localizations).

Characters are moved with Left and Right, jump with A or C, and shoot with B. The character's life bar steadily diminishes as time passes. Health is replenished by collecting food items or weapon icons. Some fruits, when shot, expand and burst into multiple items. Weapon icons change the character's weapon temporarily.

The second part of each round has the characters ride dragons and plays more like a conventional shoot-'em-up. In these segments, the character's health does not decrease over time, so food items are not present. Characters cannot jump or turn around in these segments.
