Dodging dragonfire and flying arrows allows the Prince to cross castle drawbridges in this side-view action game. Once across, players must sprint through storerooms to collect all available treasures while avoiding increasingly smart, sometimes nearly invisible dragons. Success requires jumping and ducking to navigate obstacles and reach the exit to reclaim the King's stolen plunder.
