HOW TO PLAY THE GAME
Getting Started
Insert your Dragon's Lair: The Legend™ Game Pak into the Game Boy® unit and turn the power on. The Nintendo logo will be displayed, followed by the Title Screens, and then the Menu screen. •
Press the SELECT Button to change an option.
•
Press Control Pad up or down to move the arrows to another menu item.
The game can be played by one or two players on the same Game Boy. You can choose to turn the music track on or off, and you can set the game speed to slow or fast. When you have chosen the desired options, press the START Button to begin the game.
Playing the Game
The object of the game is for Dirk to move through the numerous screens of deadly terrain by walking, jumping over dangerous objects, and riding various objects, while collecting all of the pieces of the Life Stone.
•
To make Dirk walk forward or backward, press the Control Pad right or left.
•
Press the A or B Button to make him jump.
•
If you press the Control Pad right or left and press the A or B Button at the same time, he will jump to the right or left.
•
To advance to a new screen, Dirk must walk or jump through the edge or roof of the current screen.
Lives
Dirk begins the game with 9 lives. If he lands on a deadly object, he will lose one life. Some objects only cause him to lose energy. In this case, the screen will start flashing and he should get off the object as soon as possible.
If Dirk loses too much energy, he will forfeit one life. When Dirk loses all his lives, the game is over. There is no way for Dirk to gain additional lives, so be careful!
Life Stone
Dirk needs to collect all 194 pieces of the shattered Life Stone. These are the spinning blocks found throughout the game. Each piece is worth 100 points. To get control of one, Dirk needs only to touch it.
Once he has collected all 194 pieces he must travel over the mountains to the final screen where the Good Knight lies in a death-like trance. To win the game, Dirk must jump up and touch the knight's body to bring him back to life.
If the Congratulations Screen does not appear after doing this, it means that Dirk has not found all of the pieces of the Life Stone. He must venture back in search of the remaining pieces before returning to resurrect the Good Knight.
