Dragons: A Challenge in Chivalry

Dragons: A Challenge in Chivalry is an action game with a fantasy theme. It is a single-player game that was released in 1986 and runs on the DOS platform. The player is tasked with rescuing Princess Gwendolyn, who has been kidnapped by the evil emperor Peter the Nerd and is held in an enchanted castle. Aided by a magical sword and five golden coins given to him by a noble but gentle sorcerer, the commoner protagonist embarks on a quest to save the princess. The challenge is to deflect the golden coins off the magical sword and hit the walls of the slimy castle with them. Each time a coin hits a brick in the wall, the brick disappears and the coin bounces off to hit more bricks thereby hastening the release of the Princess. However, if the player fails to hit the bouncing coin with the sword, the coin will be lost forever and they will be left with one less coin. The game will end once all the coins are lost. while bouncing the coins off the wall, the player must also look out for enemies sent by the emperor and his evil accomplice Merle, who will try their best to derail the process. Some of them are capable of adding more bricks, increasing the difficulty level. The enemies can be killed with a coin, but that would result in an increase in the gaming speed making the task more challenging. More brick walls are added as the player progresses through the game.
