After Hiccup and Toothless find the reader lost at sea and with no memory of their past, the reader and their hatchling dragon must join the ranks of the other Dragon Riders to defend Berk's shores, chart new islands and dragon breeds, and discover the startling truth behind the reader's own mysterious identity. Each new chapter brings the reader and their dragon closer to uncovering the secrets of their origins and to forging their destinies as two of the greatest heroes in the age of dragons.

Unique features include:

  • Visually rich 2D & 3D storytelling
  • Tappable 2D animations geared towards participation
  • 3D interactivities to care for, play and fly with your dragon
  • Three distinct reading levels based on age
  • Robust audio integration for an immersive experience

"I am tremendously proud of our debut story app. It truly is an interactive experience and puts the reader in the center of the story," said DreamWorks Press' Head of Publishing Emma Whittard.  "DreamWorks Press: Dragons is extremely creative, innovative and immersive and we can't wait to see fans' reactions. The story itself is entirely original and written in collaboration with the film and television teams for Dragons ensuring an experience worthy of the beloved franchise."

The Dragons story app comes on the heels of the critically-acclaimed theatrical release of How to Train Your Dragon 2 and highly successful consumer products and digital gaming launches.  The story app features all-new experiences with more dragons, secrets, lands and adventures – all led by your favorite friends and heroes: Toothless and Hiccup.
