Rise of the Dragon is a graphic adventure game released in 1990 for DOS and Macintosh, and later remade for the Mega-CD/Sega CD (1993) as well as the Amiga. It was one of the few adventure game titles developed by Dynamix, a company that was better known as an action and flight simulator game developer. In some sense, this game was an experiment by Dynamix to expand its development repertoire (to other game genres) since the company was bought out by Sierra On-Line in 1990.
The Mega-CD version added voice actors to the game (including Cam Clarke in the main role as William 'Blade' Hunter) and was given a MA-17 rating by the Videogame Rating Council, most likely for profanity, references to a fictional illicit drug, cross-dressing, prostitution and partial female nudity.

“My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one,

The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;”

“The Powers whose name and shape no living creature knows
Have pulled the Immortal Rose;
And though the Seven Lights bowed in their dance and wept,
The Polar Dragon slept,
His heavy rings uncoiled from glimmering deep to deep....”
