If I missed anything, feel free to let me know and I'll add it, nsfw games are not off-limits but since I publicly shared this I keep it in a hidden tab. I might relocate it sometime...?
I'm using tilt controls!

in reply to @Zydra's post:
Minecraft DOES have a dedicated dragon mod, not just custom player models: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/dragons-survival
oh my god this is the first time I've seen this wtf
this is awesome, I'll add minecraft to the top table as well then with this linked later then. thanks!
Beat Saber can also let you be a dragon natively via the CustomAvatars or Naluluna Avatars plugins!
NalulunaAvatars is a Patreon exclusive, by the way, and uses VRMs, while CustomAvatars is available for free on ModAssistant, but uses a custom format (which is easy to get from a VRM)
ooo I see! I'll write that down instead then, I was going off what a friend told me as I don't have a VR headset myself so I never tried it
No worries! LIV will also work, to be clear, just a bit heavier of an option. For what it is worth, LIV will also let you be a dragon in SynthRiders :D
Altered Beast (1988) has you transform into basically a dragon in stage 2.
Dragon Spirit (1987) and Dragon Saber (1990) are two shooters where you turn into a dragon (play as it the entire game).
Does riding dragons count? If so Drakan: Order of the Flame and Drakan: The Ancients' Gates both make your companion dragon a very important part of the game. Lair is another dragon-riding game, tho it kind of sucks. then Panzer Dragoon series of course.
since you didn't have Panzer i'm guessing riding doesn't count.
Yeah it's specifically for where you as the player are a dragon, antro or feral
Dragon Rage: PS2 game about being a dragon. You are a dragon called Cael in a fantasy land where orcs are kidnapping dragons and juicing out their dragon magic. You break free of one of these facilities and, using your magic elemental breaths, wreak havoc in freeing other dragons and collecting eggs to raise into baby dragons. Most gameplay is flying/combat based.
Divinity 2: Ego Draconis: fantasy RPG that came out on many platforms - Larian Studios is more famous for Baldur's Gate these days but this was an earlier game of theirs. You play as a dragon slayer who is then turned into a dragon kight - someone who can shapeshift into a dragon. You unlock the shapeshifting powers at the halfway point of the game, alas, but as a dragon you can fly and breathe fire etc. As an RPG you pick your player's gender and appearance, although you can't do much to change the dragon's appearance.
Divinity 2: Flames of Vengeance: same as Ego Draconis but remastered AND has an extra segment of story added to the plot, like an epilogue or sequel.
Dragon Commander: another Larian Studios game where you have rocket propelled dragons. I have not played this one, no idea what it's like.
Also I notice in your google doc you just have 'Spyro' as one game, there are in fact three very different Spyros:
Classic Spyro (or the remastered Spyro Reignited Trilogy ) - you play as a cute purple dragon solving puzzles, setting fire to enemies and doing some platforming
The Legend of Spyro - edgy reboot of classic Spyro, you are the purple dragon, born once every 1000 years, and you must master the four elements and defeat the dark master. Lore heavy dark fantasy spin - if you are wanting a game that's lots of epic dragon lore, the Legend of Spyro trilogy is good (IF you can get over the concept of 'they made a grimdark spyro', which I still giggle at)
Skylanders - I have not played Skylanders but Spyro is in this one too. You collect characters and can play as like, 100 different guys, many of whom are dragons. Collect characters, solve puzzles, get into fights.
ahh thank you, I will try to remember to update it tomorrow with these games as well! as for Spyro, that was the first entry and then I forgot to flesh it out. oops
I don't want to add 37 of the same game franchise so I'll see a way to Compress it, probably will type it in the notes!
can someone make a list like this for sharks
games where you can play as sharks are somewhat obscure and hard to find with the only 2 ones i really enjoy being maneater and jaws unleashed
because that requires a lot of time and effort that i dont really have
i could stil try...
Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup has a "Draconian" species option - "human-dragon hybrids" in the lore but effectively anthro dragons (their wings are not visible on the player by default, but you can edit them in in the "edit player tile" menu). Also Dragon's Wake is a game where you play as a dragon, which I have on Steam but have little recollection of playing. Might be good?
"Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup" is an amazing name for a game lmao
but thank you! I'll add these soon.
okay, I might end up making a version of this for games where you play as a bird, can I copy the formatting from this sheet? (with credit to you of course :>)
Cavern of Dreams has you play as a little dragon :3
If you’re taking early access games into consideration, there’s Glyde the Dragon
