| When I'd finally figured out how to hatch my dragon I was devastated to realise he just wasn't quite "right" from all those random potions I'd poured on the egg. Such a mental game |

| This game came bunlded with my STE and I so wanted to love it. The graphics were beautiful and the gameplay promised an interesting mixture of strategy and adventure. However, I found the computer opponents just too powerful - you'd take ages to hatch fairly weak dragons and they'd turn out hugely powerful ones in no time - and hunting for the pieces of the talisman seemed more a case of luck than skill. I'll echo that I found the spell casting system impossible to understand; was there anything to it other than random experiment? Overall, the game seems something of a flawed gem. |

| Great game, as long as you ignore the spell system you'll understand how to play in less than half an hour.
I ran into some problems with the pompey pirate version, so I'd suggest using the automation disk image. PP36 has some missing line breaks in the intro scroller, a not cleanly removed manual check and, the only real problem, when flying training missions with one of your dragons, there are no ground installations visible - in other words, you can not successfully complete the mission. |

| one of my favourite st games.
the spell making and buying ingredients was so cool.
but I found it absolute hell to find the talisman parts, i think i only ever found 1 at most. |

| Dragons Breath can be found on Automation compact disk 300 and Pompey Pirates compact disk 36. |

| I loved this game but agree with the point where it felt like you needed a degree in Chemistry to get the spells to work.
Just got a hold of it for Steem so after around 10 yrs maybe the spell mixing will be easier.
Will have to get my head straight to read through Aliens Docs !
If you haven't played this you should give it a go just don't plan on doing anything else for a while. :-) |

| I played this for hours before finally finishing it - I've got an awesome spell that makes your dragons unbeatable, they can level a town no problem and easily see off the other players dragons in combat. Top game. Still play it from time to time on my ST (still going strong). |

| now THIS game was amazing at the time, HAving to Incubate your eggs properly for the kind of dragon you wanted(slower=stronger, faster=weaker) the point of the game was to find one perticualr area on the map, cant remember much more about it :( need 2 get it of the ftp*cough* SOON ;) |

| The best game I have ever played to date. Experimentation with spell components to get the best possible spell for a particular effect kept me at this game for months. I still go back and play this game even after ten years! |

| This was the most amazing game, purely because of the complexity of the spellcasting.
It needed a degree in chemistry (or so it seemed at the time) to get the most basic effects to take place. |
