Dragon's Lair is a video game franchise created by Rick Dyer. The series is notable for its Western animation-style graphics and complex decades-long history of being ported to many platforms. It has been adapted into television and comic book series.
The first game in the series is titled Dragon's Lair, originally released for arcades in 1983 by Cinematronics. It uses laserdisc technology, offering greatly superior graphics compared to other video games at the time. The game was ported to several other platforms, but as no home system technology of that era could accommodate the graphical quality of LaserDisc, several abridged versions of the original game were released under different names. The first true sequel, Dragon's Lair II: Time Warp, had started development as early as 1984, but would only appear in arcades in 1991. While its graphics were once again praised, its by-then outdated and limited interactivity compared to the newer generation of arcade games kept it from reaching the popularity of the original.
The two main games in the series are considered gaming classics and are frequently re-released for each new generation of consoles. In 2010, they were bundled alongside the unrelated 1984 Bluth Group game Space Ace in the Dragon's Lair Trilogy which was made available across numerous platforms.
Forays into other media include a short lived animated series that aired on ABC in 1984 and a comic-book miniseries released in 2003. Plans for a feature-length film have existed since the 1980s and resurfaced in 2015, when Bluth launched two crowd-funding campaigns.[7] The Kickstarter campaign was unsuccessful[8] but the Indiegogo campaign reached its target in early 2016.

Wow, this takes me back. So hard, but so much fun. I didn't complete it until the Sega Saturn but when I did I celebrated! Thanks for the run. I don't mind seeing a few deaths when they look as good as these do.

Just looked up the inflation calc- .50 cents in 1981 is 1 dollar & 68 cents today. 😱 And they say games NOW are overly greedy... Only saving grace is Dragon's Lair cabinets were apparently fragile and spent a lot of time out of order for that reason.

I remember this game. It was very ahead of it's time compared to it's contemporaries like Pong, Pac-man, etc.

Not ten seconds in and I'm thinking 'Ooooo, the Quarter-Eater 9,000' 😂
