Its appearance in all three games has led to the games being described as the Zenithia or Tenkū trilogy, despite different geographical layouts in each of the three games' worlds.

It could be said that the imagination of players has brought the titles together in a certain fashion." [111] Dragon Quest II CD Theater". Square Enix Music Online.
