Game Description
Eragon is supposedly a dragon rider, but there
are only a handful of stages where the dragon even makes any sort of
difference. Most of the gameplay takes place on foot with the dragon nowhere to
be seen. At set times, you'll see a little dragon icon floating in the
background informing you that you can call in your dragon friend. Tap a couple
of buttons and you'll get to watch him swoop in and then leave. This dragon
needed to be at your side throughout the whole game spewing fire and helping
you kick ass instead of dropping in at select moments.
Both as an action adventure
game, and a licensed work, Eragon comes across as substandard in just about
every way imaginable. It feels like an unfinished game that was rushed through
to release in time for the movie to appear in theaters. The combat is repetitive,
the presentation is dull and lifeless, and the entire game suffers from an
apparent lack of effort.
