I first saw this game just a few years ago and didn't think much of it, but eventually picked it up and tried it. To my surprise, I enjoyed "I of the dragon" a lot, and it has become one of my top favorite games at this point. Don't let the old and dated appearance fool you ;) There is a real gem of a game hiding behind it. It's one of the very few games where you actually play as a dragon, and it's really well done. It feels amazing to cast a powerful spell that obliterates everything below you! You get to choose one of 3 different dragons: Annoth the Firebreather, who is like a warrior-type dragon, focusing mostly on physical attacks (firebreath) and a high amount of health. But he also has access to many pyrokinetic spells, to burn his enemies to a crisp! If you're up for a challenge, you could also focus your leveling differently, to make Annoth into a mage instead. Barroth the Magician, who is mostly a magic user. He has the largest arsenal of spells and can also regenerate his mana very quickly. His default breath attack also freezes enemies and he is in general a wind/ice dragon, having many spells of these elements. Morrogh the Necromancer, who is a hybrid between physical and magical. He doesn't particularly excel in as many things as the other two dragons, but he is very adaptive, having a strong breath attack as well as having various powerful spells. The controls in this game take some getting used to however. Playing with the arrow keys is possible. I recommend playing mostly with the mouse though. But try whichever control scheme suits you better. Buying this game here on GOG is a good idea, since it basically fixes many bugs which were present in some other versions. My conclusion is, "I of the dragon" is well worth it, especially so if you enjoy action RPGs with a different take on it, and if you like dragons. I think it has one of the best perspectives about dragons in media ever and it is also really fun to play as a dragon in this game.
