Dragon's Lair

The series follows the adventures of Dirk the Daring, the most skilled knight in King Ethelred's kingdom. Dirk protects the kingdom and his beloved Princess Daphne from the evil dragon Singe. He is accompanied by his loyal stallion Bertram, his squire Timothy, and his rival, the arrogant Sir Hubert Blunt. Before each commercial break, Dirk faces a cliffhanger, and the storyteller presents viewers with choices. After the commercial, the consequences of different choices are shown, and Dirk typically makes the correct decision to progress the story. Several enemies from the original game, including the Lizard King, the Phantom Knight, the Giddy Goons, and the Mudmen, appear as adversaries in the series. In the episode "The Legend of the Giant's Name," an Ardu giant awakened by Singe traps Dirk in an enchanted cave, gradually transforming him into a skeleton, similar to the game's death animations.
