The bold and the beautiful.

Dragon's Lair Trilogy is now available DRM-free on GOG.com. It contains both Dragon's Lair games, plus their sci-fi cousin Space Ace.

Even if you've never tried Dragon's Lair or Dragon's Lair: Time Warp before, it's hard to ignore their pop-culture footprint. A pretty straightforward story of a heroic knight braving all sorts of traps to save a princess in distress, made into an arcade legend thanks to the fluid animation, beautiful cartoon visuals, and...erm...challenging QTEs that bankrupted many a wee lad.

Its sci-fi counterpart, Space Ace, stars the intrepid Ace as he tries to grow the hell up and win back the lovely Kimberly. Would be nice if he could also thwart Borf's unsavory plan and save the rest of humanity from being reduced to defenseless infants.

All three games have been remastered and contain sweet extras, like interviews with the creators or insights on how their amazing animation came to be.

Oh wow, nice! These historic game classics deserve to be here.

This is great to see, especially after watching yesterday's documentary.

Keep the classics coming!

Wow! The most frustrating (yet strangely endearing) game from my childhood! Auto-wishlisted.

Dragon's Lair Trilogy... minus Dragon's Lair III: The Curse of Mordred. Kinda funny.

Also does this set just include any of the earlier PC ports? I remember playing a CGA or EGA version of the original back in the day.

Which documentary? :)

Is this game good? And how much of a game is it? I mean is it only an occasional qte?

Long before the Shenmue series coined the term "QTE" (Quick Time Event) as well.

Hated this game in the arcade as it swallowed too many of my quarters, yet come to find out decades later that it was due to shitty arcade operators; hopefully, the difficulty is more static! Wishlisted!

The entirety of the games are QTEs. They're practically the games that invented QTEs.

It's the grand father of the QTE as that is all it is. The original version didn't even give any indicators of what and when to hit the button.

Noclip did a documentary about the work GOG does to bring classic games to the store. It's on YOutube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffngZOB1U2A

Lol, that was my experience the one time long ago when I played it.
