I guess you could consider any graphical adventure game released subsequently as an up2date version.

This is 1 game i could never get tired off playing. They should bring out an up2date version.

@loljustice31 LOL yeah, dragons hehehe  I guess with the long snoot and tail and belly large enough to hold you in it LOL (and you get eaten you can see yourself and like try to move around in there LOL and there's no GAME OVER--you could like langish in his stomach all day if you wanted LOL and then the Bat would carry you elsewhere... LOL hehehe

I thought they kinda looked like ducks hehehehe

@WinstonSmith6079 Those were supposed to be dragons? Always thought they were birds of some kind...

[loljustice31]

I used to play this game off the colecovision's atari adapter in the early 80's. Even back then I made fun of the graphics, but the game play was awesome, played it all the time.

Oh, yes! A landmark in Video-Game History! One of the earliest AND best games for the infamous Atari 2600 VCS!

It looks like you're playing Game variation 1(of3), which is a nice quick-game and a good introduction to the "real" game at Game 3. IIRC, that was quite challenging and would take quite some time to figure out how to win, which is a good thing with Adventure games.

I always liked how the dragons looked like ducks, and the sound they made when you stuck them with the sword hehe :D

wow, this was my first video game I played. Thanks for the trip down memory lane

[Evaliti0n]

they should remake this game with todays graphics and alot longer

[KoterzRulez]

I had this game in my youth and just downloaded it for Game Room. That dragon scared me to death.

Wow...you guys won't believe how much fun this game was back in the day. This was the Call of Duty of the 80s.

Someone released a homebrew Adventure II for the Atari 5200 I think. Check atariage.
