Dragon's Lair presents itself as an interactive cartoon movie, a format derived from its initial LaserDisc arcade release. The experience revolves around guiding the knight Dirk the Daring through a dungeon to confront a dragon named Singe and save Princess Daphne.
Gameplay is structured around animated sequences where the player must input specific commands, such as directional movements or a sword action, at precise moments. Successfully timing these inputs triggers the continuation of the cinematic sequence, driving the narrative forward. This mechanic makes the gameplay challenging, as progression is dependent on correctly timed reactions during the pre-rendered scenes.
