This game is about to defeat a dragon, which acts as a final boss. For this purpose a magic weapon is needed. The gameplay is actually almost the same as in "Return of the Heroes" - only there are fewer regional maps (nine in number) and it is necessary to defeat a dragon. If you believe the description, so it is possible "In the Shadow of the Dragon" also play well for two. But in this respect lies the description: It can indeed play a couple, but it's no fun at all. Indeed, there are not enough jobs. Very good can turn the game in the basic game integrate "Return of the Heroes". Then you play on a plan of 5x5 area maps. The game features some great ideas: The Labyrinth or the desert, for example. Now we come to for return of the hero already traditonellen criticism: The game manual. It is incomprehensible and leaves some things that require a statement. But as inveterate Return of the Heroes fan get used to it. Overall, I forgive four star. For five stars, the Instructions, the two-person game is patchy and uneventful. But who has the basic game and is a fan of Return of the Heroes, the game should not be missed!
