Dragon’s Lair is a classic interactive movie game series that debuted in arcades in 1983 and later came to PC. Created by Don Bluth, it stood out for its stunning hand-drawn animation, making players feel like they were inside a cartoon. The series follows bumbling knight Dirk the Daring on a quest to rescue Princess Daphne from an evil dragon.

Gameplay is based on quick-time events—pressing the right direction or action at the right moment to survive. Though notoriously unforgiving, its visuals and charm made it legendary. On PC, the series lives on through ports, remasters, and digital collections.
