First, let’s learn more about Dragon’s Lair (Arcade). How is the game played via Dragon’s Lair – Videogame by Cinematronics | Museum of the Game (arcade-museum.com)
Dirk The Daring travels, searching through a castle for Princess Daphne who has been kidnapped by Singe The Dragon. Cinematronics’ first laserdisc game done by former Disney animator, Don Bluth. Very popular.

This will take you directly to the official PGM iScored Score Chasing Scoreboard at the spot where you will enter your score on Dragon’s Lair (Arcade). Where can you play? Here are a few suggestions (alphabetical order) but is not a complete list by any means:
- Arcade – yes, check your local area for barcades, arcades, mallcades, etc. You might have an arcade machine nearby and play might still be a quarter!
- Various Emulated / MAME / CoinOpsX / etc – emulated versions are allowed, but we do not typically link to these sources.
- Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch – search the stores for consoles for “arcade archives” as sometimes there are licensed versions of the games we feature available.
Here, for kicks and giggles, is video of gamer, Tom Bell, beating Dragon’s Lair on his Arcade11up achieving in his words “a perfect game” for the first time in 40 years:
Another interesting thing about this week’s game: it can be found on a wide variety of systems. I have a DVD disc of Dragon’s Lair that can be “played” as well in some DVD players! Finding Dragon’s Lair to play this week should be among the easier to find and play this week.
Now that you have located where to play, simply start playing to establish your personal best score. The goal of score chasing is not a typical leaderboard high score, be the top score tournament. We simply want you to play and beat your personal best.
