Dragon’s Lair to rise on DS

 

Here’s a nifty new development for DS fans everywhere. Digital Leisure is a leading publisher of interactive DVD and CD games including the classic Dragon’s Lair line and the American Laser Games series of shooting games”>Digital Leisure recently announced that they’re bringing Dragon’s Lair to the DS. According to their press release, Dragon’s Lair DS will be sporting some new enhancements, such as stylus control and Rumble Pak support.

In Dragon’s Lair, you’re a knight trying to rescue a princess from the clutches of an evil dragon. To do so, you’ve got to go into the aptly named dragon’s lair, by bypassing traps and defeating dangerous monsters created by a dark wizard who wants nothing more than to see you fail.

Here’s the full list of features they’re planning on bringing to the classic adventure game:

• Dual Screen (book-style) full-screen action
• Single Screen (top-down) full-screen action
• D-Pad & Touch screen support (in both Dual Screen & Single Screen modes)
• Voice Recognition
• Rumble Pak Support
• Arcade & Home modes: This feature allows you to switch between the Arcade and Home versions of the game (Arcade default). The differences between the two are that the latter includes the additional sequences that were not in the original Arcade game.
• Game Statistics: Displays your lives and overall score
• Lives: Choose between unlimited, standard 5 lives or sudden death single life mode
• Difficulty: Easy or Hard. The Hard option complicates things by adding additional moves in certain sequences and mixes up the scenes for less linear stage progression. Timing of moves is also affected – achieve higher scores
• Visual Move Guide On/Off: Toggle this option on to bring up a visual clue that shows whether you entered the right move or not. A red circle means you entered the wrong move or your timing is off, a green one lets you know you did it right.
• Watch mode (learning mode – video mode): All game scenes without deaths – all game scenes with deaths scenes, in addition to an option where the player can choose to watch a specific scene

In any case, we’ve got a ton of screens of the game for you, as well as two shots of the game being played. No word on when it’ll be coming out though, but expect it to make waves when it does. Till then, we’ll be looking for new information regarding this classic title.
