Eragon spawned a game and a movie. Coincidentally, the DS game rocked.

---

This Game Provides Examples Of:

• Adaptation Distillation: Just about everything from the movie and a lot of stuff from the book, which the movie cut, is here. This includes Eragons fight with Arya.
• Big Damn Heroes: Eragon saves Brom several times, including a Ra'zaac attacking Brom. Saphira saves them both quite a bit. The first three Saphira levels are her Big Damn Heroes Moments. Brom jumps in front of an attack Durza is doing, which kills him.
  • Gameplay and Story Segregation--that same attack only deals 10 damage to Eragon.
• Chekhov's Gun: There is a magic statue in Carvahall. Of course players who don't know what it is (read: just about everyone on there first playthrough) will soon forget about it.
• Difficulty Spike: As soon as you enter the forest.
• Disk One Nuke: The Bow and Arrow, because of the fact that you see enemies long before they see you.
• Doomed Hometown: More like doomed home. Your house gets burninated.
• Dual-Wielding: Level up Za'raac enough and Eragon gets his dagger back.
• Fake Difficulty: The fight against Durza riding beast.
• First Town: Carvahall.
• Fetch Quest: Literally every Sidequest!
• Flunky Boss: The second Kull you face sends ravens to attack you.
• Hopeless Boss Fight: Arya.

• Narm: Quite a bit.
• Noob Cave: The Spine. It only has wolves.
• One-Hit-Point Wonder: Eragon in the beginning.
• Puzzle Boss: The Ra'zaac.
• Samus Is a Girl: Eragon doesn't find out Saphira's gender until he kills his first kull.
• Scenery Porn: Quite a bit for a licensed game.
• Sheathe Your Sword: Played with. When Farthen Dur is under attack, to advance in the game you have to run away.
• Shifting Sand Land: Hadarac Desert.
• Ship Tease: Eragon and Katrina. No really.
• Slippy-Slidey Ice World: Averted with Rocky Pass.

• Welcome to Corneria: The only other thing NPC's do is send you on fetch quest.
• What Happened to The Mouse?: Bava, after gathering her Urgal sashes.
