A downloadable game for Windows

A lone bard, waylaid by a fierce and fearsome foe!

With no weapons at hand, how will you fight back against the dragon? Anger it? Bore it? Seduce it? Can you stay alive long enough for it to drop its daring gaze? Watch out, for one can never quite predict a dragon! You are not quite sure but the dragon might find your usual pick-up lines a bit boring.

(An unfortunate typo bug made it into the game that switches flirty and boredom meters, so the dragon might rebuff charming comments and find mundane things lovely. Gamejams, amirite? )
