Prophecy I: The Viking Child

Fantasy setting

You play a Viking child in a cartoony side-scroller, fighting through 16 levels to rescue your family from Loki. Along the way you buy potions and magic items in shops and defeat Loki's apprentices.

Athena

Fantasy setting

A classic SNK arcade platformer where Princess Athena fights through mythology-inspired worlds, picking up weapons and armor along the way.

Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle

Fantasy setting

A classic 16-bit Sega platformer where Alex Kidd jumps and punches his way across Paperock to rescue his kidnapped father. Colorful stages, boss fights and tight platforming action define the experience.

Alex Kidd in Miracle World

Fantasy setting

A classic 8-bit Sega platformer where Alex Kidd punches his way across Aries, rides vehicles and settles boss fights with rock-paper-scissors duels. Charming yet fairly tough, and an important piece of Sega history.

Hocus Pocus

Fantasy setting

A classic DOS platformer where you play the young wizard apprentice Hocus, blasting monsters with lightning bolts and collecting keys and treasure across many levels to pass the Council of Wizards' trial.

Maximo: Ghosts to Glory

Fantasy setting

A tough 3D action platformer set in the Ghosts'n Goblins universe: as the knight Maximo you hack through hordes of undead with sword and shield, with your armor breaking off as you take hits. A charming, macabre style and steep difficulty define it.

8-Bit Bayonetta

Focus on a single character

A short, tongue-in-cheek retro arcade gag where Bayonetta jumps and shoots in 8-bit style while chasing high scores. Born as a mini-game and April Fools joke, it is tiny and quick to enjoy.
