Last Survivor (ラストサバイバー) is an arcade game originally released in 1988 by Sega for the Sega X Board arcade hardware.
Last Survivor is one of the first examples of a 3D third-person shooter, and involves players traversing a maze shooting at opponents. It pre-dates experiments by id Software (often credited for inventing the first person shooter genre) by two years. It relies on rotary joystick controllers, and had then-revolutionary ray-casting graphics. As an early example of the genre, its gameplay is slower and less fluid than modern third person shooters.
The first game in EA's NBA Live franchise, Lakers vs. Celtics puts the player in the driver's seat with the team of their choice, with the goal of winning it all in the 1989-90 NBA season.
A fantasy war game that includes heroes, military units, city management and fighting dragons. There is a story while you try to claim the throne as your own. You start with a single city, and along the way it is possible to make allies and vassals as well as conquering neighboring cities.
Morty Maxwell, the master of mischief, is up to his old tricks again, and this time the Shady Glen School is the target of his outlandish plot. Armed with paint that turns things invisible and five robot paintbrushes, he's trying to erase the school, and you only have until midnight to stop him. To stop the evil mastermind, kids will need to read for clues and collect evidence to determine which of the robots is really the Master of Mischief in disguise.
Fly your plane through five levels, shooting enemy planes, submarines, helicopters, and other enemies along the way, and use your equipped cluster bombs if necessary. You need to destroy a target that is outlined in your mission briefing. You have three lives and limited cluster bombs. To help you along the way, you can shoot a power pod to score points, increase your firepower, and gain some help from fellow squadrons.
When the epic, thousand-year-old battle between different dragon clans was finally over, and the benevolent White Dragons started ruling the country of Akranis, it looked like the age of peace has finally arrived. But all changes when the dragon rider Kain finds an ancient weapon known as the Rune Blade. He brings it to the old white dragon Yoshua, who tells him that a powerful protective artifact has been stolen, and the fateful hour has come to Akranis... with the help of his dragon Sarken, Kain has to restore peace and save Akranis and the dragon race.
The game is a rather unusual example of a side-scrolling action game, in which the player controls a dragon. Sarken is able to fly in any direction, but so are the enemies in the game, most of which are other dragons. The dragon has a HP bar which is depleted when he is damaged by enemy attacks or traps. Beside physically attacking, the dragon can also learn and cast offensive and protective magical spells.
AKA Devastators. This game essentially takes commandos that look identical to the Contra dudes and places them on long 3D battlefields. Rather than advancing screen by screen, you can walk forward by holding Up, as the background slowly scales toward the screen.
A mysterious invasion force known as the Galaxy Highters invades the Earth in the year 1996. With their abilities in space time manipulation, they are able to invade several time lines in Earth’s history and occupy each one simultaneously. In order to stop the Galaxy Highters, Earth’s militaries design the 'Flying Bird', a jet fighter capable of time travel, enabling it to fly into occupied time lines.
You control a knight with a sword that can swing high or low, and you fight creatures that can hit you or shoot things at you. Along the way you gain a shield that can block projectiles and can increase your armor/sword strength by going into rooms (including secret rooms) to collect powerups. You are usually limited to a single background in Family BASIC. Fisraduth uses darkness to hide portions of the background to give you the feeling of multiple rooms. There are even hidden, secret rooms.
Psycho is a graphic adventure game with a key-based verb interface.
A set of jewels has been stolen. At the time of the theft, a curator was with the jewels, so he got stolen, too. And who's the suspect? Norman Bates, of course. The next night, a daring detective drives out to the sinister Bates Motel. His plan: a) find the jewels, b) free the curator and c) take a nice hot shower, should time suffice.
Psycho is entirely controlled with the keyboard: direction keys for moving your character around, shortcut keys for performing actions. You need to stand close to an interesting object in order to examine it. Adversaries will appear at random throughout the house, putting you to sleep by touch and thus draining your precious time -- you've only got four hours to solve the case. You may shoot the enemies as soon as you find a weapon. As there is no other option for character interaction, this is how you'll deal with the Bates family as well.
Skyx takes over the same operation while bringing it a new dimension. First, you no longer move a cursor, but a warrior, a mage, an elf or a acrobat. The character is chosen at the start of the game and has its own characteristics. For example, the elf is very fast and the mage has a protective shield. Your task of conquering the screen is complicated by the presence of numerous enemies who are reluctant to be uprooted! The spark is formidable: it pursues you as soon as you draw a territory, and catches up with you if you draw it too vast ... An all green alien also wanders to the right and to the left; if it touches the line of the territory you are delimiting, instant death! The witch is hardly friendly either, and is bent on restricting your conquests. Fortunately, there are also bonuses: regenerative apples, “flums” too, which bring extra life. However, this is not a reason to jump on any object lying around: the bottles of Gnaps are very, very harmful ...
A considerably stripped down version of Commando, with a limited amount of enemies onscreen and generally simplified gameplay. The levels have been reduced to only four stages that loop twice, as opposed to the arcade game's eight levels. The arcade game made use of two fire buttons; as the 2600 only has a single fire button, the player has to press fire to shoot and hold to lob a grenade. This version was programmed by Mike Riedel for Imagineering, Inc.
