Dragon's Lair
Sent in by Mike Waters
In the final stage of this long, time consuming, and sometimes
frustrating game, Dirk the Daring battles Singe in the treasury
deep in the castle's underground. When Singe is finally beaten,
he explodes time and again for about 15 seconds or more, after
which we see the brick background that has become familiar with
players of the game. On that background, these words appear:
"CONGRATULATIONS PLAYER ONE". The next screen has Princess
Daphne kissing Dirk on the cheek while Dirk holds his sword at the
ready and looks up (basically like on the label of the cartridge where
he's looking up at Singe), and the two are enclosed in a heart as
fireworks go off. When this scene disappears, Dirk goes through
the game's first level, slashing the item containers to reveal the
credits. When the credits are revealed, they remain on the screen
for a few seconds and then explode like the containers do when
they are hit. When Dirk reaches the exit, this password is given: 1
A 2 (blank) 3 B 4 (blank) 5 C 6 D 7 (blank) 8 (blank), which opens
every level in the game (and ends up making the map of the castle
looking almost as complex as a map of Bill Gates's mansion). When
the player presses start at the password screen, the title screen
is once again displayed.
