You're the dragon. The castle is dinner. 🐉🔥

Pick your dragon, tilt your phone to swoop over a cartoon kingdom, and burn the castle keep to the ground, while archers, ballistas, catapults and one very grumpy wizard try to knock you out of the sky.

🏰 Mission: burn down the castle keep. A wizard's blue shield protects it, so burn the wizard tower first... then deal with the wizard himself.

🐲 Choose your dragon (DRAGON button on the title)

Dragon	Breath	Its four attacks
EMBER	🔥 Fire	Spray · Fireball · Split · Bombs
FROST	❄️ Ice: frozen defenders can't shoot!	Frost · Ice Shard · Shard Fan · Hail

All three dragons are free to play: pick one on the title with the DRAGON button.

🎮 How to play (hold your phone upright, two thumbs)

• 📱 Tilt like a steering wheel to turn. Tip the top of the phone away to dive, towards you to climb.
• 🎚️ Speed slider on the left. Slide it all the way down to hover in place.
• 🔥 Four attack buttons (bottom right). Press or hold one.
• 💨 DASH: a quick barrel roll that nothing can hit. Perfect for dodging!
• ⚠️ A red line and "!" means a ballista is aiming at you. Turn or dash!
• 🔴 A red ring on the ground is where a catapult boulder will land.
• 🐑 Hurt? Swoop low over sheep or villagers to gulp them up and heal. (The villagers walk home later, a bit slimy.)
• 🪙 Burn things quickly one after another for COMBOS and bonus gold.

A short tutorial teaches everything on your first flight.

✨ What's inside

• 🧙 A wizard boss who chases you on his broomstick, throwing magic orbs
• 👑 The king's last stand: knights rush out, the king waves a white flag... too late!
• 🗺️ Three kingdoms: Green Valley, ❄️ Frost Keep (snow and extra ballistas), ⚓ Harbour Hold (catapult ships at sea)
• 🎚️ Three difficulties: EASY is made for kids, NORMAL is a fair fight, HARD is... hard
• 🏆 Eight trophies to earn, your best stars saved for every kingdom, and a new daily challenge every day
• 💰 A golden ending: your dragon sits on a big heap of treasure
• 💬 Villagers, knights, the king and the wizard all have something to say about you
• 🎬 Cutscenes: the dragon waking up, the wizard bursting out, the keep crashing down (tap to skip)
• 🎨 A cartoon look: bold ink outlines and flat, punchy shading on everything, from the castle to the pine and leafy trees

⚙️ Good to know

• 📱 Phones: "Tap to play" opens the game as its own page, because that's how phones allow tilt. Tap Allow when asked about motion. No tilt? Drag on the left side to steer instead.
• 💻 Computer: the dragon steers towards your mouse, click to breathe, 1–4 pick an attack, space to dash.
• ⏸️ Pause menu: camera style, re-centre tilt, invert dive, sound, music, left-handed controls, and GRAPHICS LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH (also on the title; Android phones start on LOW).

It's all cartoon mischief: villagers run off waving their arms, and the king escapes with his crown. 👑
