The game is noted for its humor, featuring witty dialogue and a comedic tone that enhances the experience of flying as a dragon. The voice acting, particularly for the dragon character, is highlighted as a standout element, contributing to the overall fun and old-school feel of the game. While opinions on the game's quality are mixed, the humor is consistently praised as a positive aspect.
- “Very fun, feels old school, very funny and witty with an overall tone of comedic style that I enjoyed.”
- “Seriously though, it is actually a pretty funny game, and the voice actor for the dragon sounds really awesome. I'd recommend picking it up in a sale though if you really want this game. Not saying it's bad, just not saying it's good either. I'm kind of neutral but lean more towards positive. There really is just not much to say about this game; you fly around as a dragon with a cool voice and kill human beings and pigs occupying villages.”
