Notes

[1] The Amiga conversion of the laserdisc coin-op, DRAGON'S LAIR was released as two games: DRAGON'S LAIR PART I and DRAGON'S LAIR: ESCAPE FROM SINGE'S CASTLE.

[2] Original game concept by Don Bluth. Computer game design, adaptation and coding by Randy Linden.

[3] The game supports 68000/010/020/030 CPUs and multitasking (if memory permits). Dirk's death/birth sequences and sound are disabled on 512K machines. 1Mb machines require one of these features to be disabled for multitasking, although all features are present if multitasking is dispensed with.

[4] Distributed by Media Technology Ltd. in the U.S., Empire in the UK, Leader in Italy, and Questor in Australia.
