  1. The quality of animation seen here is unheard of in modern gaming – or many contemporary films, for that matter.
  2. Adults and kids alike won't be able to resists the mesmerizing visuals and the memorizing gameplay.

    If you want to play the game, there are far cheaper ways to do it and in terms of comparison, they aren't all that bad. Dragon's Lair HD could have been something special, something truly nostalgic, but walks away as nothing more than a shameless cash in.
