"Dragon Fire" is the final game in the "Quest for Glory" series by SIERRA Entertainment. The fifth game is arguably a different Genre from the first four; which are mostly Adventure games incorporating Role-playing elements, while this one is a Role-playing game incorporating some Adventure elements The player talks to the world's inhabitants, gathering clues and items necessary to acquire in order to complete the Quests and advance the Story. Unlike all its predecessors, Dragon Fire has no separate battle screens; the action-based battles take place on the exploration screen, utilizing a simple point-and-click interface, similarly to "Diablo". The game has heavier weapon and armor management than other "Quest for Glory" games, strengthening the RPG angle.

Its king was recently murdered, and, according to the land's traditions, the crown will be given to the one who passes a contest known as the Rites of Rulership. The hero enters the contest, aided by Erasmus, Rakeesh, and other old friends. However, as the competition progresses, contestants are being systematically killed by an unknown assassin. All the victims are murdered near the Dragon Pillars, which keep the Dragon of Silmaria in captivity. The hero must investigate the crimes and save Silmaria from a grave danger.
