What’s a dragon game? That’s any game that’s got dragons in it — typically, a game that prominently features dragons. While some dragons in dragon games are less prominent, they are no less important. Dragon games can be a part of any genre, be it the ever challenging Elden Ring or the cozy life simulator Little Dragons Café. Whatever sort of game you’re looking to play, there’s probably a dragon game that fits within that genre.
And I’m an expert at this because, of course, I love dragons. A couple years ago, I read the nine books in Naomi Novik’s Temeraire series, and I was hooked. I’d never been a big fantasy reader — until then. I set off the following year largely reading only books that featured dragons. Eventually, the obsession seeped into the video games I played, too.
As for this list, there is one obvious choice of a dragon game, one that most people likely know: The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, so I’m leaving it off. But do know, it’s an all-timer for dragons — and, if for some reason you haven’t played it yet, give it a try. But if you’re looking for something different, something that maybe you haven’t heard of or hadn’t realized was a dragon game, keep reading.
