Dragon’s Lair iiRcade Gold Close Up January 30, 2023

We’ve been interested in the game Dragon’s Lair for at least a decade. It featured graphics by the legendary animator Don Bluth and gameplay that was revolutionary for its time. In fact, long time fans of the site might remember Maniac promised a few years ago to produce a video where he attempted to beat the original arcade game on just one credit. Due to unfortunate technical issues, that could not happen. That’s when we picked up this, the iiRcade Gold, and it is loaded up with a bunch of classic arcade titles including Dragon’s Lair. Let’s take a closer look under the hood.
