The PAL version of Dragon's Lair expands upon the Japanese version, still having a good speed, but adding new enemy types and cutscenes in-between levels.
Contrary to other multiregional games at the time, the PAL version is a lot faster than the original NTSC version, despite the refresh rate being lower.
Ages ago, the Ancient Sages built the Temple of Time to protect the Sacred Realm. Ganondorf, the Gerudo King of Thieves, has Obtained the Triforce of Power and become the King of Evil. The power of the sages lies sleeping in six temples across Hyrule. The time has come for you to awaken as the Hero of Time!
This adaptation takes Link to familiar places and a few new ones. It is designed to be more difficult, more forgiving, and less linear than the vanilla game.
