Once upon a time there was a Game that became a
Legend
In 1983 Dragons Lair, featuring Dirk the Daring
made its debut in Arcades everywhere. 16 years later, Dragons Lair is still one of
the most popular video games ever made. It has been released in several different formats.
The original arcade game gained such recognition that it is on display at the Smithsonian
Institute.
The Legend Returns
Dragons Lair 3D! Blue Byte will release this gaming
legend in 3D in the first quarter of 2001. In the 3D version, the gamer will have full
control over the actions of very lovable "Dirk the Daring". Dirk will be on a
valiant quest to rescue the fair princess "Daphne" from the clutches of evil and
fiery Dragon, Singe! To triumph, you must fight your way through the castle of the dark
wizard, and overcome monsters and obstacles that have been set throughout the castle just
to make your pressing task that much more challenging!
All of the characters in Dragons Lair 3D are
being newly redesigned by Don Bluth. Don Bluth also created the figures from "An
American Tail", "The Land Before Time" and "Petes Dragon".
