  • Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

Alex Kidd in Miracle World

Challenging difficulty

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.

Immortal Redneck

Lots of humour

A fast-paced first-person roguelike shooter where a redneck blasts through Egyptian pyramids, using god-given blessings against bizarre enemies and huge bosses. The humor is crude and the pace is relentless.

Goblin Sword

Fantasy setting

A retro-style action platformer with light RPG elements: fight through monster hordes, collect loot, dodge traps and defeat bosses on the way to the evil wizard.

Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle

Challenging difficulty

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.

Maximo: Ghosts to Glory

Challenging difficulty

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.

Athena

Fantasy setting

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