It's an old NES game that came out. I played it for a few hours when I was young. I thought it was very strange. I want to find it and play it again, though, but I don't know what it's called. I hope you guys can help me based on what I remember.

-The game has to do with dragons, and dungeons, and magic.
-The main part of the game is overhead 2-d, but parts of the game, the battles, are done in first-person mode.
-If you left the game at the title screen, it would go into a demo, where the main character would be making his way down from the top of the screen through a zig-zagging landscape.
-The game to be seemed very sudden and absurd with its challenges. It was possible to walk into a perfectly good looking tile and die from it being a pit. The pits seemed almost random. Also, there were invisible monsters, it what I guess was the first level.

It can't be as painfully obvious as a Dragon Warrior game, is it?

It's not Zelda 2 though, it's a hack.
Now why did I think Z2 had that...?

No, it's not a Zelda game. It was for the console.

He played it for a" few years when he was young". i doubt his parents would have bought a hacked copy of zelda two. Chances are there were none at the time. to me it sounds like an Dragon warrior RPG. Do you remeber who made it?

No, sorry that I don't.

I did look at some googled dragon warrior pictures on google. That's not it. The first level in this game starts in a dungeon. There's only one character too. And the graphics in this game I remember differently.

Describe graphics, draw a pic of how it looked. (jeez all this thinking is hurting my brain...)

There were plenty of crappy NES hacks distributed on fake cartridges. Pirates would just take a game and hack the graphics a bit.

Sounds like Dragon Spirit, aye?



Although that's obviously for an arcade and not NES, my friends and I recently played Dragon Spirit (we were just playing random shmup's). So there's an NES version out there.

Did you read th thread? its not about dragons, your a guy and you start out in a dungeon. I'm thinking the battle style is earthbound-ish too.

I hope one day I'll figure out what this mystery game is.

I've got two more I'd like your help from, guys. I'll just name this one for now:

NES game. It starts out as a 2D side-scroller. You're in some sort of jeep, some kind of vehicle that can jump, and I think shoot some blasters as well. In this first level, I'm not sure how long it lasts, but you eventually make your way into a lower area, and you're confronted by some sort of guardian robot or monster. You have to kill it by firing at it very rapidly. Then you get out of your vehicle and go in this door.

After in this door, the game changes to an overhead 2D game, the way the old zeldas were, but futuristic, and you have a blaster. Your character has a white helmet on as well.

That's all I can think of.

That game has to be Blaster Master, no doubt about it. You'll notice right away when you give it a spin.

That's the one. Thanks Colin. You're like a hero and stuff.

In the NES game, you're a robo dinosaur or something. It's a side-scroller. I remember it being really hard, and you had upgrades, but I think you could lose them easily.

I have to agree and say Guardian legend...

Try that game....

(I'm still thinking Robin Hood for your first missing game)
