MINNEAPOLIS, MN – July 30, 2010 –
Experience the fantasy adventures that became a cultural
phenomenon! Game publisher Destineer today announces a partnership
with Digital Leisure Inc. to develop Dragon’s Lair Trilogy,
bringing three timeless arcade adventures together on one disc for
Wii
TM
: Dragon’s Lair, Dragon’s Lair 2: Time Warp, and
Space Ace. For the first time ever on a console platform, you can
experience the stunning visuals and engaging storylines from all
three of these classic arcade games created by legendary American
animator Don Bluth. Lead on brave adventurer, your quest
awaits!
An instant hit in its 1983 debut, Dragon’s Lair is one of
the most beloved arcade games of all time. As valiant knight Dirk
the Daring, immerse yourself in a fantasy adventure on a quest to
rescue Princess Daphne from the clutches of an evil dragon. You
control the actions of the daring adventurer, finding your way
through the castle of a dark wizard, who has enchanted it with
treacherous monsters and obstacles.
Straight off the success of Dragon’s Lair, Don Bluth and
his creative team began working on a galactic adventure known as
Space Ace! In Space Ace you play the heroic Ace who must stop the
evil Commander Borf from taking over the Earth! Only two people
have the courage and strength to stop Borf and save Earth: the
beautiful Kimberly and Ace. But as they approach Borf’s
stronghold, Ace is hit by the Infanto Ray, changing him into a
child, and Kimberly is kidnapped by the evil madman! The fate of
Earth is in your hands!
In the sequel to the smash-hit, Dragon’s Lair 2: Time Warp
allows you to once again play the heroic Dirk the Daring, who must
stop the Evil Wizard Mordroc as he has kidnapped Princess Daphne
and taken her through time! But you must hurry, for once the Casket
of Doom has opened, Mordroc will place the Death Ring upon Daphne's
finger in marriage and she will be lost forever… in the Time
Warp!
