Dragon’s Lair was the first arcade game to cost like $1 to play. The first several times you played it, the game was over in 10 seconds because you had no idea what was going on or what you were supposed to do. It wasnt until consoles that I started to enjoy this game. Remember how bad thise versions were?
I remember trying so hard to play it on the Commodore 64. It was so awkward but I kept at it and got kinda good at a few levels. Never beat that terrible game.
