You play as a dragon whose girlfriend has been taken by a king. Journey through a fantasy kingdom to find her, facing knights, soldiers, and other enemies along the way.
Move through side-scrolling stages by flying, jumping, swiping with your claws, and attacking with dragon breath. Different breath types can help against particular enemies and bosses.
Explore themed levels for gold, hidden treasure, and secrets. Spend gold to improve your strength and find abilities, or take puzzle routes that avoid monster encounters.
Players who enjoyed the game often point to its humor, hand-drawn style, and warm story, along with the appeal of exploring for secrets and tackling its old-school platforming challenges. Some also appreciate finding tactical ways to handle enemies and bosses. Other reviews describe the controls as clunky or the difficulty as uneven, and one player reports being unable to start a later level because of a crash.
