Water Margin: A Tale of Clouds and Wind

Fight the army of evil at the risk of your life!

Play as one of the three heroes with specific moves and features, and face formidable warriors who will show no mercy. On your own or with a friend, slice through the woods and fight your way through hordes of enemies. Use different magics to put a large number of opponents at the same time.

The end of the game will be different depending on the level of difficulty you choose.

Switchblade

The Fireblade, sacred symbol of the ancient Switchblade clan, has been smashed into 16 pieces by the evil Havoc – but they say that a Hiro can save it, and as Hiro, you must retrieve the 16 pieces and restore your people’s pride.

The gameplay is platform and ladders based, set both inside and outside. The layout of the territories becomes visible as you progress, and they can contain bonus weapons and secret rooms. Unlike the sequel you start without weaponry, and this is gained directly, rather than you collecting coins and trading them at shop sections. Holding down fire progressively builds up your fighting power.

Nightshade

Sutekh has gotten rid of local superhero Vortex, and now Metro City is in the hands of crime. You are Nightshade – the superhero that nobody knows – and your goal is to stop the evil doers, including main villain Sutekh.

Nightshade is a humorous adventure game, with a menu that allows the protagonist to perform various actions, such as look, take, talk, etc. Also included are some one-on-one fight scenes, which differ from the standard controls and in which Nightshade is able to jump, kick, punch and duck.

Radical Rex

Radical Rex is a fire-breathing Tyrannosaurus on a skateboard who has to save the dinosaur race under the spell of an evil creature. The game consists of 10 levels set in the prehistoric age. Radical Rex can use a skateboard or glide down hills, jump, kick and breath fire. Tougher enemies need multiple hits and when burnt Rex needs to kick them once more to destroy them or use his scream (hits everything on the screen). While playing Rex collects eggs, health, power-ups for his fire breath and scream refills. Checkpoints are shown as torches that need to be charged with fire. After each level, there is a Bomberman-like sequence to earn an extra continue. Enemies include flies, turtles, toads and all kinds of dinosaurs.

8 Eyes

8 Eyes is set in a post-apocalyptic future. Mankind is recovering from hundreds of years of chaos and nuclear war, and civilization is being rebuilt by the Great King, who harnesses the power of eight jewels. The jewels, known as the 8 Eyes, were formed at the centers of eight nuclear explosions that came close to destroying the Earth. The 8 Eyes have mysterious power which, in the wrong hands, could bring about the end of the world. The Great King’s eight power-hungry dukes steal the jewels for themselves and banish the King to the nuclear wastelands, threatening to once again plunge the Earth into war.

The player controls Orin the Falconer and his fighting falcon Cutrus. His mission is to infiltrate the Dukes’ eight castles and retrieve the 8 Eyes. With the help of Cutrus, you must fight the Dukes’ soldiers, nuclear mutants, and the duke of each castle to retrieve the jewels. After the jewels have been recovered, you must return them to the Altar of Peace so that the Great King may return and finish rebuilding the Earth.

Dragon View

Dragon View is an action role-playing game and a follow-up to Drakkhen. Like its predecessor, it features a 3D overworld navigated from a first-person perspective. Towns and dungeons, however, are presented as side-scrolling areas. Alex can jump and fight enemies appearing in the dungeons with a sword or other weapons he can later acquire, such as a boomerang and a bow. Experience points are awarded for vanquishing enemies, and Alex’s strength and defence parameters increase when levelling up. HP and magic points increase by finding specific items. It is also possible to find magical rings and weapon upgrades.

Drakkhen

Drakkhen is a role-playing game with a visual presentation that combines 3D landscapes and 2D interiors. The player’s party will travel overland on a flat terrain made up of vectors, on which 2D objects are zoomed (The same type of engine was later used in Eternam). The player will encounter monsters and fight them in real-time combat, and discover the palaces of the dragon lords. Indoors, the player has to find a way through the maze of chambers, solving puzzles and defeating the minions of the Drakkhen. Party members are depicted in four status windows on the left side of the screen, thus allowing to see their current status and equipment at once.

Iron Commando

A a brawler beat-em-up with lots of weapons and big end bosses.

The B-movie story is cheesy and does nothing more than accommodate for the action. From the introduction sequence: “The peril came from outer space. A meteorite entered the earth’s atmosphere bringing chaos. After observation, the scientists found that the meteorite was radioactive and had to be destroyed. Unfortunately, terrorists from g.h.o.s.t. want the meteorite too. The Iron Commando’s mission is to retrieve the deadly body and avoid genetic mutation.”

The player or players walk along the levels beating up enemies. On some levels you ride a motorcycle or jeep, even a mine kart, and shoot your way through hordes of enemies. There are several end bosses, some are screen filling like a helicopter and a giant robot.

Canon – Legend of the New Gods

The game is a strategy RPG which consists of battles and cutscenes to advance the story. Navigation is possible only during battles, or as instant travel between locations on a world map. During the battles, the player moves the heroes over the top-down battlefield, attacking enemies physically, defending, or using magic whenever enemies are in range. Characters gain experience points every time they attack an enemy, so it is possible to level up in the middle of a battle.
