But the Empire is also after Crayden, so there appear to be at least three sides in the conflict - or are there more? Nobody helps him but his faithful dragon. Coming into contact with an ancient dragon, Edge begins to roam the world, determined to find Crayden and avenge the death of his comrades. He then witnesses the murder of his captain and other soldiers by Crayden, one of the Empire's officers. During the excavation works, Edge encounters a mysterious young girl. The Empire has recently ordered some excavations at ancient ruins, trying to discover the secret of an old technology that is much superior to that of present time.
A nice touch is the ability to zoom in and out on the action.Īll in all, a fun game, but not quite a Top Dog in my opinion.Edge is one of the soldiers in the service of the mighty Empire. After a while the game becomes a bit repetitive due to lack of variety in enemy types and terrain.
If you like arcade-style games, Panzer Dragoon is fun enough and just unique enough to keep your interested, but compared to other classic SEGA titles it does not quite match in terms of quality and addictiveness. Each level ends with a "boss" creature, whose hit points show up as a bar to let you know how close it is to dying (or not). you battle enemies while your dragon flies on a predetermined path. The gameplay is similar to a typical "rail shooter," i.e. Depending on how well you shoot, you will gain credits at the end of each level if you pass a required percentage threshold. The normal and hard levels give you limited arcade-style "credits" for continuing a game. The easy level only lets you play the first four levels, but your dragon can die many times (after which you can restart in the last level you just completed).
There are three difficulty levels: easy, normal, and hard. Your dragon can not only breath fire, but also has a homing laser (!) which is activated by holding down the fire button and will lock on up to eight targets automatically. Similar to Dragon Strike from Westwood/SSI years ago, Panzer Dragoon is 3D dragon-dogfights at its best. The plot: you are a hunter who one day gained the ability to ride dragons by witnessing the death of a "Sky Rider." Your task is to ride your trusty armored dragon to fight evil dragons, evil Imperial faction, worms, and many more dangerous enemies on your way to prevent the horror of ancient times from surfacing again in this alternate world where only a handful of human tribes remain. Panzer Dragoon is a fun 3D shoot 'em up game from SEGA (a PC port from the hit SEGA Saturn version), featuring 360-degree action and multiple gameplay styles.
