Space Ace

Dragon's Lair... IN SPACE!

Technically the first sequel (or maybe spin-off?) that was released after the first Dragon's Lair. This time we are Dexter, the Space Ace that together with Kimberly tries to stop the commander Borf from using a ray on earth that turns people to children. Dexter gets zapped before the start of the game and therefore there is a new mechanic where you can became the Space Ace at times to become the hero compared to the boy Dexter that are more avoiding the danger. Ace usually blows things up, or uses his strength to break free from traps. More dialouge than the other games, and it sounds like real voice actors. Sadly the talking actually makes it worse since boy Dexter gets grating, as does Kimberly. Also, each defeat makes Borf berate you. But since that is Don Bluths voice fine by me.

Overall... don't know. Fun to watch and more alternatives than the other games, but the talking is a bit annoying. So that was the Dragon's Lair Trilogy. Not much game, but the animation is fantastic so maybe it's worths its price if you like that.

Our heroes!
