Rygar

Fantasy setting

A classic arcade platformer where the resurrected warrior Rygar fights through hordes of monsters with his Diskarmor to reach the demon Ligar. Fast, linear action with old-school 1980s difficulty.

Athena

Fantasy setting

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

Knightmare Tower

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A frantic arcade action game where a knight slashes upward through tower ceilings, rescues princesses and outruns rising lava. Upgrades bought between runs make each new attempt stronger.

Knightmare

Fantasy setting

An early Konami MSX classic: as the knight Popolon you fight upward through vertically scrolling levels full of enemies to rescue Princess Aphrodite. It blends shoot-'em-up action with a medieval fantasy setting and power-ups.

Bearslayer

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast one-button arcade platformer starring Lāčplēsis, the hero of Latvian legend, demanding precision and quick reflexes. Expect to die a lot and retry constantly.

Momodora

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

The first, deliberately simple entry in the Momodora series: a short, punchy arcade-style 2D action platformer with pixel art. It is rough and unpolished but challenging.

Flipper Volcano

Linear, curated structure

You play a ghost fleeing an erupting volcano by flipping your way upward while the lava keeps rising. Procedurally generated levels make every climb a frantic arcade race against time.

Icy Tower

Gameplay comes before story

A simple arcade freeware game where you hop up an endless tower from platform to platform, chaining combos and momentum to climb as high as possible. Easy to grasp, highly addictive score chasing.

Super House of Dead Ninjas

Action-packed real-time combat

A fast 2D action-platformer where you plunge down a randomly generated tower as a crimson ninja, cutting through enemies with blades, shurikens and special attacks. Short, frantic runs and a retro look give it an arcade feel.
