Taito's bubble-blowing dragons made it to the C64 in fine style: trap the monsters in bubbles, pop them into fruit, and clear a hundred single-screen caves, ideally with a second dragon on the couch next to you. The C64 version nailed the feel, and that melody will now be in your head for the rest of the day. You are welcome.
This was one of the great two-player games of the machine, cooperative right up until the moment your mate popped the bubble you were saving. Then it was war ;)
