Dragon's Lair
About the Game
This version of Dragon's Lair is a departure from the earlier arcade titles of the same name.

Story & Setting
However, before he can rescue the princess, he must first overcome 24 levels filled with enemies and obstacles.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Fortunately, Dirk has both his trusty sword and the ability to used ranged weapons (axes, knives, & shuriken) at his disposal.
Modes & Ways to Play
Player support includes Hot Seat and 1-2 Players.
