Very disappointed

I was really excited to try Dragon’s Lair on iPad, having fond memories of the original arcade classic from the 80’s. Unfortunately, this version is a big let-down. The magic, charm, and smooth animation that made the original so unique just aren’t here. The controls feel clunky and unresponsive, and the pacing doesn’t capture the excitement of the original gameplay. You need super fast reactions to even get anywhere

For a premium price of £4.99, I expected something faithful to the original experience, with fluid animation and responsive controls. Instead, it feels like a rushed port that doesn’t do justice to such an iconic game. Unless you’re buying purely for nostalgia and don’t mind a compromised experience, I can’t recommend it — it’s not worth the price.

Great!

No problems for me, works as it should.

I sound at all

Pathetic, and I’ve searched any reason why there would be no sound. Crushed my 10yo who loves Dragons.

Would give it a zero

Won’t even download on top of the line pad and 2 gig net. Watch out. Maybe it should charge you the 5 bucks once it actually runs

Amazing!

This game was amazing
