Dragon''s Lair and the Fantasy of Interactivity

This book revives a neglected video game classic through a critical examination of its design, its makers, its recording medium, and its imagery. The investigation of these facets reveals a game shaped by the demands of its context and is instructive for contemporary debates in media studies.
