The popular animated television series is now a magical hand-held game! You take on the role of a dragon that has yet to learn the secrets of flight in this exciting adventure. You'll attend Quetzal's School in the Sky, where you'll practice your wing flapping, hovering, treasure carrying, and breathing. Once your confidence is high and your skills honed, you'll enter the enchanted Dragon Land, where all sorts of mischief awaits you. Journey through 15 levels of difficult obstacles and dangerous terrain, meeting up with a few friendly faces straight out of the television show along your path. There are three difficulty levels to choose from, so gamers at all skill levels can get in on the action. The game is only intended for one player, but you can always complete a game and then challenge a friend to match your progress. Learning to fly has never been so fun or safe.

Nice graphics but to difficult for young playersDec 30, 2000
We bought this game for our four year old who just received a gameboy for christmas. The dragontale characters are one of her favorites. Her face lit up when she saw she could control Cassie, but when she started to play she got frustrated with the time limitation. The game is written for 3- 5 years old, but the time limitation giving to complete a level is not long enough for beginner gamers. My six year old tried to to show his sister that she just needed to practice, but even he is not able to advance past the six level. He has been a gameboy player for two years now and has become a gamer expert for his age. If he can't beat it, no three or four year old will be able to in my opinion. The nice thing is you can play the lower levels over and over and try to gather more berries with each try. My daughter still likes it because of the characters, but she doesn't play it very long.

Dragon Tales: Dragon WingsAug 29, 2001
By R Lehman My 5yr old got just got his first game boy and I thought that this would be perfect for him. How disappointed we were. I wish I had read the other reviews before we wasted our money on this one. It was very difficult to move around..and even I had trouble trying to get to the other levels. Please spend your money on something else.

Can Your Kid Read?Jun 01, 2001
Our two kids (4 & 6) love the TV show Dragon Tails and were thrilled getting their fist Gameboy’s with one of the games being Dragon Wings. If your child can read at about a third or fourth grade level then they are candidates for this game. If they can’t read then don’t waste your money on this game. They will have more fun with your [price] if you throw it on the kitchen table with a box of crayons and let them color it! What a waste of money! The other reviews of Dragon Wings give you an excellent over view of this Gameboy game. Take their advice and pass on this on if you have little ones. Good idea, bad game.

Only one activity which is too difficult & teaches nothing.Feb 11, 2001
By Lynette Heim Bikos Relative to my kids' adoration of the television show and to the lessons taught there, this was a most disappointing purchase. In preparation for an overseas flight, I bought my 4 1/2 year old a Game Boy and 3 games (to be shared with her 2 year old brother). The kids enjoyed watching Cassie and Ord for a few minutes (compared to the other games, this was NOTHING). However, they were most frustrated in teaching the dragons to fly. When they used this game, I spent my time soothing frustration tantrums and bailing them out of the game (which was NOT my intent for the overseas flight).
There was only one activity: flying lessons. This was so disappointing. Compared to the other games which had multiple activities and some preschool skill development, this game was a waste. Additionally, the colors on the initial pages of the game are very dark and difficult to see.
I feel like the software authors lost a real opportunity to engage children in learning while they play with some of their favorite characters.

Lots of fun!Aug 24, 2002

I bought this game for my 5 yr old daughters birthday, she's using it on a GBA she also got as a gift for her birthday. My 8 yr old has also tried this game on her GBC and she said it was the most fun she'd ever had with a game. Both of my daughters were thrilled to add this game to their collection.
