How to Train Your Dragon has you play as Hiccup, a Viking teenager who doesn't exactly fit in with his tribe's longstanding tradition of heroic dragon slayers. Hiccup's world is turned upside-down when he encounters a dragon that challenges him and his fellow Vikings to see the world from an entirely different point of view.

Gamers can play as characters “Hiccup” or Astrid” on the vast Island of Berk, which features expanded locales from the film including Vikings’ Village, Wild Zone, Training Zone and Fight Arena. In this truly larger-than-life adventure, players will train dragons, explore environments and battle in prestigious dragon tournaments as they battle for Viking victory. Plus, gamers can become the Dragon hero of their living room as they square-off with friends and family in endless head-to-head multi-player combat!

Starting Friday, March 19th, gamers will have the chance to win a How To Train Your Dragon game and gaming system by going to the official site and entering the contest. Gamers are encouraged to enter daily, as a new winner will be chosen each day until April 7th.  Winners will be able to choose between a Wii System with the Wii version of How To Train Your Dragon and a Nintendo DSI and DS version of the game.
