Tantei Jinguuji Saburou: Kiken na Futari - Zenpen
1988
Tantei Jinguuji Saburo: Kiken na Futari is the third game in the Jinguuji Saburo series, known in the West as Jake Hunter. It was originally released across two Famicom Disk System disks, the second of which went on sale several months after the first. The game was eventually localized, as part of the Jake Hunter: Detective Chronicles DS compilation of his early cases, as Jake Hunter: Crash and Burn. In this game Detective Jinguuji Saburo/Jake Hunter must solve the mystery behind a sudden death during a motorcycle race. The intrigue is deepened when the body recovered is actually of a different racer.Nankin no Adventure

Nankin no Adventure
1988
A Famicom Disk System adventure game developed by Sunsoft in 1988. Nankin no Adventure is a Famicom Disk System adventure game from SunSoft that plays much like every other Famicom adventure game of the era. The player selects commands from a menu in order to talk to NPCs and solve puzzles which will eventually allow them to progress. As with many of these Famicom text adventures there is a linear critical path that the player must follow in order to move to new areas and reach the next point of the story. Nankin refers to a semi-obscure manga artist of the same name who was behind much of the art design of the game. Though the game doesn't include any of his pre-existing licenses, his distinctive art style is present throughout. This approach might be equated to Akira Toriyama's artistic involvement with the Dragon Quest and Chrono games.Bishoujo Sexy Derby

The game recreates each of the sections of the film, starting with a side-scrolling journey through the jungle, with paths to cross both horizontally and vertically, and the ability to jump or duck hazards. You will need to blow up a bridge and then locate a village, which contains a torch, a map and a trap-door. The enemy has booby-trapped the area and are launching airstrikes, so the danger is not all from enemy ground soldiers.Project A-ko 2

Zavas
1988
Described by its developers as a "New Type Role-Playing Game", Zavas differs from the Japanese-made RPGs by resembling a Western-style RPG, in particular the Ultima games of its time. Retaining the characteristically Japanese manga/anime aesthetics in graphics, Zavas has little resemblance to Japanese RPGs in other aspects. It is not story- and character-driven; the player controls a knight named Mardy in the medieval fantasy land of Fargana (with slight Middle Eastern influences), and is free to go anywhere, exploring the world without following a set storyline. The top-down world consists of vast wilderness areas and towns. Similarity to Western RPGs is evident in detailed management of player-controlled party (NPCs with names and portraits, but little personality can be found and recruited). beside the usual weapon, armor, and item management, the player must also buy food to keep his characters alive. Some of the interaction with NPCs offers choices (for example, paying money or attacking a guard who demands tDatenshi Kyouko Part 1
