Return to the Dragon’s Lair

Back in the days when I actually went into work in NYC every day, there was a big video arcade in Penn Station. And I would always stop on my way in to play “Dragon’s Lair,” which was big and new and splashy and right up front, with a television mounted above it so that passers by could see the game play. I have no idea how many quarters I plunked into that thing. And I managed to last longer and longer at it, moving through the set pieces with increasing ease, discovering little tricks along the way to maneuver through some of the trickier bits.
