Alien Mystery: The Golden Tensei Gensei (Marvel Station: Secret Commando) (2003, Eypan) (GBA)

Does it look like a good old gameboy action game? I wish it exist, BlackZone : the Silent Doom. You could control this robot guy with the massiv lightning arm, he would be a super engineer because there is not enough engineer as heroes of games. A cross engineer-detective.

The Labyrinth at Nishimori (西森の迷路) 1990, Nintendo Famicom

A graphic adventure horror game for Famicom. A group of friends become separated during a week-long hiking trip through a great forest called Nishimori. As one of the unlucky teens, you find that you’re more than lost–the forest itself has turned against you! When your friends begin to come back from the darkness of the labyrinth, you’ll wish they had stayed lost.

Gameplay takes place over five in-game days–wander aimlessly and you’ll run out of time. Can you solve Nishimori’s riddles and escape, or will you join your friends in the forest forever?

Also, while looking up that one Kat Kong thing, I saw this fake boxart for a hypothetical game, and I had to show it to you because, holy crap, the rating…

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/eee(game)

əəə (also stylized EEE) is a puzzle-based role-playing game released anonymously for the PC for the first time in 1995 (with several later updates released in 2000 and 2006). Initial funding for the game was provided by The Learning Company, which cut the project due to a conflict in goals. [1] The game’s protagonist navigates a psychedelia-inspired fantasy world and recruits companions who provide the encyclopedic knowledge of the game’s universe and logic necessary to solve puzzles in order to progress between combat stages. EEE is notable for maintaining a cult following despite the fact that the game is unfinished; only three of an unknown number of routes through the game are completely playable. [2] Some players believe the other routes are finished, but that the puzzles that can open those routes have not yet been solved. [who?]

eee.wikia.com/wiki/Librarian

The Librarian is the final boss of the Gibberish route, which focuses on a puzzle involving a constructed language (called Gibberish). The Librarian appears in all routes as a Sphinx guarding the Lamenting Archive. In the Brute or White Wallpaper route, the player can choose to sneak by if they have The Hound Of Rome in the party, bribe Oli un Ui for entry, or fight the Librarian (in her first form) until she falls unconscious. In the Gibberish route, the player must reply to her inquiries in the correct Gibberish, the grammar, vocabulary and script of which can be learned from texts in the library.

The player returns to the Archive in the last stage of the Gibberish route after defeating Salt to find that Salt destroyed it with his final attack. The Librarian’s battle is therefore similar to the optional challenge battles after the Salt battles in the other routes, but the Gibberish title screen cannot be achieved without defeating the Librarian.

When initiating combat with the enraged Librarian after the destruction of the Archive, she transforms into her Elaborate, which forces the game out of windowed mode and removes all companions from the player’s party. The music theme also changes. The battle itself can be completed alone by activating the Once Bruised trait or while equipping the Spiked Collar. When the player is dealt a killing blow, the game displays the dialogue choice above where the Librarian speaks in Elaborate Gibberish. So far, no method has been discovered that allows the selection of any option other than [3], and no guides to Elaborate Gibberish have been found anywhere in the game, so it’s not clear what the Librarian says. Instead of showing the death screen, the game then crashes to desktop.

When the player deals a killing blow to the Librarian, she transforms again into an immobile third form, which cannot be interacted with except to Strike her vulnerable point (the enormous eye, obviously). After a minute-long death scene which is gruesome even for EEE’s standards, during which the player executes the Librarian after a failed initial Strike, the game will CTD. When the player opens the game again, the Gibberish title screen will have been achieved.
