I gave it a generous 6.
I'm just not having fun playing it. Graphics are ok(big dragon sprite and all) but the game feels clumsy, unresponsive and slow.What is the best graphics to be seen on a speccyI'd like some opinions on that, out of interest. I except loading screens. Tir Nan Og was a landmark for sure, but what bettered it?
How about - Shadow Warriors? Excellent and very cororful graphic and multiplication, massive sprites, beautiful 'game theme' from Matt Furniss...

Can't help feeling it would've been a much better game if they'd halved the size of the dragon... Another 4/10, I'm afraid. :(ZZap lives on!

I hope they do a Dragon User supplement next. That'd cheer me up for sure. :D Isn't that a great idea?
