- For other games in the series see DragonLance.
DragonStrike is a combat flight simulator based on the world of DragonLance. You play a dragon rider who must engage evil dragons and various other monsters of the DragonLance world. You battle your foes with your DragonLance and the breath weapon of your mount.
This is probably the first fantasy-themed flight simulator. Unfortunately, the view port is small, and the controls take awhile to get used to. Having to maneuver your dragon, the position the DragonLance, and alter your speed is difficult to do on the keyboard. However, the full-screen graphics for each cut scene are very attractive.
Commodore version was ported from the DOS release. It lost full 3D engine, although Commodore was capable of it (see Freescape games), so everything was designed with sprites.

Music
Commodore 64 port of DragonStike have probably the worst music among all of them. While there were many Commodore 64 games with decent usage of filters, three or even four channels, that game sounds like the it use only two channels, no filters and was programmed in BASIC.
They also scrapped Game Over and all mussion tracks - after getting to the mission you won't hear anything but rare sound effects. DS 5 and Promotion tracks, most probably, were also left outside of Commodore version, however, it's not verified.
