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.

The Legend of Korra

Action-packed real-time combat

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.

Rygar

Fantasy setting

BPM: Bullets Per Minute

Wonder Boy III: Monster Lair

Action-packed real-time combat

A colorful arcade platformer with shoot-'em-up elements where you fight through monster-filled stages as Leo and Priscilla, solo or in two-player co-op. Fast, accessible retro action.

Fantasy setting

A classic 2D pixel-art action platformer where you play the priestess Momo through mostly linear levels, collecting items and uncovering secrets. It relies on quick dodging and tough boss fights, and you don't need to know the earlier games.
