This game seemed more like an interactive cartoon than a game since it features Disney style animation. And for a game that was released back in 1983, this was very revolutionary.
i wonder if, with todays technology, they could make a game like this, but with full control of the character? it would be awsome if it could be done, but there'd be a heck of alot of animations to do (unless its already been done, then forget what what i said)
@Duiss You move the stick either up, down left or right. It's a timing sequence. You have to time it just right. The animation takes over after you move the stick. There are at least 20 rooms to beat. A few are easy, just one move of the stick and you pass. Some you have to move the stick about 5 times in different directions. Once you move in the wrong direction you can't go back. You just watch Dirk die. Not as easy as it sounds. But fun.
I love the animation on this and Space Ace, it looks different than a regular animated movie. I would rather watch a movie animated in whatever way they did this than the animated movies then and now.

@OMA2k The animation was originally made on film, then digitally transferred to laserdisc. The latest Blu-Ray version was a high-def transfer directly from the filmstock, not just copying and cleaning up the standard def laserdisc version. The result is sorta like the difference between taking a 3MP photo of a painting then cleaning it up to look sharper vs. just taking a 12MP photo instead.
@Pkmatrix I see. So it's a new transfer from film. Since the video title says "Original Arcade Movie Sequence", I thought the video was taken out of the actual arcade video game.
@Pkmatrix It's certainly a different in the time between when the film was first mastered back in '83 to when the high-def transfer was made. I certainly see the difference.
@createDXemnas This is an arcade coin-op game from the early 80s. It looked really cool back then, when the arcade games used to have graphics like PacMan and Space Invaders, this came and everyone was amazed at the amazing "graphics", but really this was just a very well animated cartoon movie played on LaserDisc with some quicktime events added on top.
It is my imagination? But in the arcade version when Daphne tells Dirk where the Magic sword is some more balancing objects go to fall down so Dirk catches them brilliantly apart from one cup that falls to the ground and awakens the Dragon (this is done in a funny way and adds something to the game) I am the only one who has seen this and it definitely happens but on your Movie sequence and the Blu Ray and DVD version this does happen. Just wondering why?
@NuGhost Those voices were done by Don Bluth's animators to cut cost. Princess Daphne has one of the most obnoxious female voices in all of animation!

oh my god >_< i recognize the art from the kids animated movie Thumbelina, because the chick is the same Thumbelina but blond and everything showing xD i feel like i just lost part of my childhood hahahahaha
great high-def walk-through. The game was fiendishly difficult in places and certainly made you cough up an awful lot of quarters, especially some tricky moves on the last stage..
@Xatike bro, this guy had it good. this guy was a highly experienced knight with a sword and shit who could run in circles and stab guys and what not in a series of challenges which equated to less than 10 minutes and at the end
gets some nudge nudge wink wink.
Think of how long Mario spent just jumping on shit, in far more dangerous scenarios for his blonde bimbo, who at the end fo it all just kissed him then got kidnapped again for th enext game. Hell did Link even get a kiss?
I don't remember these sequences being in this order,,seems the lava men were next to the dragons lair and the whirlwind that blows the door off along with dirk was one of the very first being it was so easy to defeat,,seemed the easier ones was the first in the game and they got harder as the game progressed,,maybe my memory is wrong since its been 25 plus years ago I originally played it.
@iron1528 Well, yeah. The animation studio couldn't afford models, so they turned to playboy magazines. That's why Daphne stands and looks the way she does.
Man, I dumped tons of coins in this machine when I was a kid. Dragon's Lair & Space Ace were so ahead of their time! Anybody remember the third laser disk arcade game that featured a car chase & bank robbery? That was great too!
@edwoodification I was thinking the same thing about that one about the car chase and bank robbery, I can remember it looked similiar to anime in style, it was insane!
Loving how the comments give away peoples ages... Anyone who can't appreciate this game and thinks that the alternative 'new wave' beats it hands down has to realise that games like this, on tech like that paved the way for the games played today. They were obviously born after the laserdisc era died. The people who made this were just regular joes with TALENT! Not much of that about these days, just rips of old ideas dressed up in new tech!
@GetawayFilms This game is epic! A real game! And space ace as well! Two of the hardest to play games i have ever played in my life! And the most fun, too! This is what a real game is like, these new games are too repetitive and just a bunch of rip offs from other games before today!
I read somewhere that Daphne was supposed to be embarassed of her skimpy outfit. "Supposedly". So much that she's still wearing it in the sequel. Uh-huh.
We lined up for this awesome video game in a small game room where I worked in 1983. No one can get it the first few times but you learn by dying. I also watched others in between playing to learn the right moves. After spending at least $30 in quarters (50 cents a pop) I finally won it. Then I'd go back later and show off while others watched. I became the master instead of the apprentice! Loved the princess & her "oohs" and "ahhs!" I never liked pacman back then, this game was more addicting.
@mikeycereal Same here. I got so much attention when I got close to finishing the game, and at times had like 10 people crowded around the game. Great memories!
I would like to see at some point a side-by-side comparison of the original laserdisc quality compared to the HD video taken from the original film negative.
@Ambaryerno ...it is, and yet it isn't. But I know exactly what you mean. If this was a full-on animated film instead of just a game, it would've been even better, the guys behind it would be paid even more, and Don Bluth would have even more of a legendary reputation as one of the most kick ass artist/animators ever.
You wanna try doing half the stuff he's doing and make it look any less awkward, difficult, and painful? Like getting burned, eaten, stabbed, electrocuted, or slammed into walls? Be my guest.
From what I heard, this game pushed laserdisc to the MAX, and the arcade machines often broke down. But the game was so popular, the repairs were worth it.
A game that was SO FAR ahead of tis time back in the early 80's. Oh the money I used to sneak out of my parents pockets and pocketbook that was spent trying to win this game. I made it to the dragons lair a couple times but never beat the game. I did however own a copy of this on either Sega Saturn or Sega CD (forget which) and did beat it there. Man.. classic. This game would still play good today.

You wanna try doing half the stuff he's doing and make it look any less awkward, difficult, and painful? Like getting burned, eaten, stabbed, electrocuted, or slammed into walls? Be my guest.

From what I heard, this game pushed laserdisc to the MAX, and the arcade machines often broke down. But the game was so popular, the repairs were worth it.

Can't believe there aren't super long youtube poops of 0:48 playing OVER AND OVER AND OVER again.

A game that was SO FAR ahead of tis time back in the early 80's. Oh the money I used to sneak out of my parents pockets and pocketbook that was spent trying to win this game. I made it to the dragons lair a couple times but never beat the game. I did however own a copy of this on either Sega Saturn or Sega CD (forget which) and did beat it there. Man.. classic. This game would still play good today.
