Dirk the Daring returns to Dragon's Lair
Disney Mobile working on "exact reproduction" of Don Bluth's animated arcade classic.
More than two decades after Dirk the Daring debuted in the original Dragon's Lair, the bumbling knight is poised to make his return to the arcades, and anywhere else you can bring your Sprint PCS or Verizon Wireless mobile phone. Disney Mobile is promising that Don Bluth's Dragon's Lair, developed by MMJ Games, will be "an exact reproduction of the classic arcade game," with 25 levels of pushing-a-button-in-the-direction-of-a-flashing-item gameplay along the way to rescuing the fair Princess Daphne from the fire-breathing dragon Singe. Gamers will also be able to post their high scores and compare them against others on a competitive leaderboard.
