A Token is a type of coin used to play games in the casinos in the Dragon Quest series.
Description[edit]
Casino tokens aren't typically needed to complete any game's main quest, but are handy to have in order to exchange for the item and gear prizes offered by various casinos.
Tokens are generally acquired by first purchasing some with gold, with the usual price being a single token for 20 gold coins. Once the player has purchased or found some tokens, winning casino games is a risky but less costly means of procuring more tokens than simply buying them.
Though Dragon Quest III included gambling via the Monster Arena, gold was used as the means of betting in that game. Tokens have consistently appeared in games that include casinos since Dragon Quest IV introduced the concept.
Other means of gaining tokens[edit]
Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen[edit]
At some point as of Chapter 5, the Hero and party can win casino tokens upon going through the Trans-Montane Tunnel. The prize is 2,000 tokens in the Famicom/NES version, while the PS1 remake and subsequent versions set the reward at a modest 100 tokens.
Also in the remakes, 300,000 tokens are awarded to the party if all monsters have been encountered and defeated once and the book is examined after.
Additionally, the price for tokens in Chapter 2 is merely 10 gold coins for 1 token while near the end of Chapter 3, a single token is 200 gold coins.
In all versions of the game, casino tokens acquired carry from Chapter to Chapter.
