Rings of Power

April 25, 2011 by Nick Durham 2 comments

If you’re looking for another RPG to play, there are probably a bunch of Electronic Arts PC ports that you haven’t tried yet. Many gamers shied away from what appeared to be daunting quests, and the like of Might & Magic II: Gates to Another World, King’s Bounty, and Rings of Power were passed over by far too many would-be adventurers. That last title boasts one of the largest adventure worlds on the console, and if it weren’t for the incredibly slow-paced gameplay, more people would have enjoyed what is otherwise a great Tolkien-like adventure.

Surging Aura

April 25, 2011 by Ken Horowitz 0 comments

Surging Aura is a classic Sega adventure that has somehow resisted all attempts to be translated from Japanese (though a French version does exist). This is unfortunate, as the game is entirely playable, even in Japanese. We’ve gone through it from beginning to end, so check out our full review to see just what you – and the rest of the world – have been missing these many years.

Pier Solar and the Great Architects

April 25, 2011 by Ken Horowitz 2 comments

After a seemingly endless wait, WaterMelon’s Pier Solar was finally unleashed upon the Genesis community last December. The game sold like hot cakes, with a third printing recently selling out, and our forums have been buzzing with discussions about the first brand-new Genesis game built from scratch in over a decade (and hopefully the first of many more). WaterMelon went all out with the packaging, and guess what?It included one hell of a game with all the goodies. This is one for the ages, my friends, so read our full review and be prepared to physically hurt yourself for not having bought this when you had the chance.

Hands-On: Shining Force (iPhone)

March 15, 2011 by Sebastian Sponsel 0 comments

Sega has certainly made a point to bring the original Shining Force to as many platforms as possible, with the game appearing on several compilations. Of course, a mobile phone version couldn’t be far behind, and the game slashed its way to the iPhone this past summer. So what better way to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the series than by giving this latest version a full hands-on?

Sorcerer’s Kingdom

If you’re a Genesis RPG fan, you’ve probably already been through all three Phantasy Star games and beaten back everything dark in the Shining series. If you’re still looking to sharpen your blade, why not try out Treco’s Sorcerer’s Kingdom? It’s not the deepest game in the genre, but it’s a solid way to spend a Saturday, and it’s an RPG that most fans have probably overlooked.
