The concept with DL was the laser disc. With a new eprom and marque, they could convert the existing cabinet into a new game. Space Ace was another attempt at this type of conversion.

You control the actions of a daring adventurer, finding his way through the castle of a dark wizard, who has enchanted it with treacherous monsters and obstacles. In the mysterious caverns below the castle, your odyssey continues against the awesome forces that oppose your efforts to reach the Dragon's Lair. Lead on, adventurer. Your quest awaits!"

I've blown several weeks allowance in this game. My friends and I were able to get through the game without dying once. This game was huge when it came out. They put an extra monitor on top of the cabinet so the 15-20 people constantly crowding around the Machine could watch as well. I bought it and played it on my touch. It's amazing how many rooms I still remember. I'm 41. I've blown several weeks allowance in this game. My friends and I were able to get through the game without dying once.

I played it quite a bit. I never finished it, but I knew the moves by heart for most of the levels, including the final level with the dragon, which I learned by watching other players. The level that always got me was the one with the mud monsters. The timing on that one was tricky and the move list for that level was quite long. Sadly, the arcade near me that had this game closed before I was able to master it. Years later, I finally conquered the old DVD version. Does anyone remember Thayer's Quest? Another LaserDisc arcade game from the tail end of the arcade golden age. It was like an RPG/adventure game, less timing oriented. You'd have to solve puzzles and go on quests to collect things. Very cool. Sadly, the arcade game was shipped incomplete. There was supposed to be a sequel arcade game, but it never materialized. I think the animations were recycled for a CD-ROM game for the 3DO console called "Kingdoms" or something like that. I am old enough to have played Dragon's Lair in the arcades.
