There was a glitch in the level after the Destroyer one. But it only works on two player mode smilie
there's a glitch where if you both die at the same time (doesn't always work though mind but i tried this out five times and two of those times this happened) you become sort of invincible but it you press the Switch Player button the invincibility glitch stops and you die. I will try and explain it further if any of you want to try it out or want to know more about it.

i honestly dont know any glitches in this game, oh wait, there was one that got me stuck in the middle of the raft in the underground city, but i restarted the level and havent had any problems. oh and i think that most of the game was easy but the burned lands were tricky, especially when trying to do the ring event for that one peice of armor. took forever to get it

I love this game, but all of the glitches!
I didn't know about the "stuck under troll" glitch at first, and I cried because it made me restart the whole Dragon City level when I died!
