| 1444022 | 2017-12-25 09:47:00 | Just wondering if you guys know it . . . Have tried google to no avail so far . From the late 1980s to early 1990s . Dungeon type game . 2D . The character is a knight but you could upgrade the equipment and the sword etc can be longer and the armour would be stronger . You get to certain areas and there are shops where you can upgrade your equipment . I remembered there is one shop that it transports you backward or forward to different part of the game when you had to get back and do something first . . . there was one building who suggest you help you but they fool you and instead you go back some parts of the game . . . Available on a PC, playable on a 386 . Thanks in advance . |

| 1444023 | 2017-12-25 12:18:00 | Could you describe how it looked, was it isometric, what colour did the character look like, what type of enemies, bosses you faced. A lot of these games were ported from other platforms and I don't have a particular game in mind yet, but if you describe its style, whether it was side scroller etc, also controls, did it use a mouse? | Kame (312) | ||

You get to certain areas and there are shops where you can upgrade your equipment . That describes heaps of them sadly . Dungeon keeper? Heroes of Might and Magic? Dark Castle? Pools of Radiance (whole bunch of D&D games) Or have a look here: . wikipedia . org/w/index . php?title=Category:1990_video_games&pagefrom=Fire+Emblem%3A+Shadow+Dragon+and+the+Blad" target="_blank">en . wikipedia . org e+of+Light#mw-pages |

| 1444025 | 2017-12-25 21:28:00 | Thanks for that list . The graphics wasn't quite as old as Pools or Radiance . It was 2D looking like the classic Mario brothers . You go left and right maybe up and down the levels but you didn't really walk up and down in that 3D sense . The character was a knight in silver armour with a shield and holding a sword that always pointed up, as you upgraded the sword it would become longer . The sword would only change positions when you attack . The controls I think was just keyboard . The graphics was something like Prince of Persia, like this: . myabandonware . com/media/screenshots/p/prince-of-persia-2-the-shadow-the-flame-3u9/prince-of-persia-2-the-shadow-the-flame_17 . png" target="_blank">www . myabandonware . com Or like this: . popuw . com/4dprince . html" target="_blank">www . popuw . com |

| 1444027 | 2017-12-26 00:44:00 | Cheers. A bit like Castle in the Darkness but characters not as comical. I will go thru that list .... | Nomad (952) | ||
| 1444028 | 2017-12-26 00:55:00 | The game might be hosted on the internet archives like here. (archive.org) Or add internet archives to your search terms in Google like this... (goo.gl) | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 1444029 | 2017-12-26 03:22:00 | Actually I think I do know the one you mean, but can't think of the name myself either....hard to google a description rather than the name.... | piroska (17583) | ||
