Video Game Quiz v2

[kcwong]

Yay! My first question!

Give me a little time... I'll post a few screenshots when I get home (at work now). It's going to a difficult one... I hope.

So here it goes:

Hint:
1) It's an old DOS games.
2) It's a strategy/RPG game... you know, Japanese RPG.
3) Not quite Goggle'able. But you can find a little about it on game hint/cheat sites.
4) As you can see from the screenshots, it is in Chinese.

The big bad boss shown in the introduction:

Command menu 1:

Command menu 2:

One of the hidden characters is a martial artist... idea copied from you-know-which-anime...

The protagonist is able to advance into one of the two classes... Hero or Sword Saint. If you go Hero, you can cast (not so) powerful spells...

No Japanse RPG-style game is without an overhead map:

Another hidden character. She's a Sword Saint as well, and this is the start up of her special move, Sonic Blade.

It will go in a straight line cleaving through a long line of enemies. Usually it's instant-kill for non-boss enemies.

in case the lack of a new post makes you think I haven't posted my question yet.

 

[Tycoon101]

A Fire Emblem Game.

I don't know which, but one of those screenshots made me immediately think Fire Emblem.

 

[kcwong]

This game is the second chapter. There's one before it, and there's a sequel after it.

But the word "Fire" is quite close.

Another hint: This is a PC game, not console.

Wow, excellent question, kcwong!
I don't recognize it, but might put google to work later, when i have time.

 

[kcwong]

It's probably too difficult... this game was never translated - only Chinese version available. So perhaps a lot of you haven't heard about it at all.

Though it is one of the greatest strategy/RPG made by a Chinese company back in the old days.

More hint:
1) There's a walkthrough for it in English... in a very popular site for hints, tips, cheats and FAQs. It is very nice and the author translated all the items, spells, names and dialogs.

2) The game's title consists of two words. "Fire" is quite close to the first word.

 

[Till]

Is the title in English, though?

 

[Grohan]

Flame Dragon?

Edit: If I was right then anyone can take my question because I'm going to holiday

 

[carmen510]

The first pic reminds me of AYB.

 

[kcwong]

@ Till: Of course the title is in English ... if not, you all can smack me for asking a stupid question.

The game I asked about is Flame Dragon 2 - Legend of the Golden Castle. The Chinese name is 炎龍騎士團2 - 黃金城之謎.

So Grohan is correct. Have you played it before, or did you find it with Google?

 

[Olav]

I have a new question! Name this fine game:

Btw, nice question kcwong!

 

[Heretic_Cata]

Viva Football ? (or Viva Soccer, i don't remember)

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Would that be the very fine, and brilliant Sensible Soccer?

 

[Till]

That would have been my guess as well.
*angry Donald Duck noises*

 

[Olav]

You got it, Kan!
A nice little game. It was fun to rename the players to other names - I always replaced Ian Wrights name with my own

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

There's a remake out now, I'm hearing good things so far.

Will post a question later tonight, I'm off to shoot folk on CS

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Here we go

Could it be some iteration of Home Alone for the gameboy. Of course I've never seen that scene before...probably because I got bored after I got through 50% of it.

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Close enough. Home Alone 2 for the NES.

I got about two minutes beyond this pic (it's the first level) before getting bored.

Imagine playing that in black and green. Now that's horrible. The only cool thing was the bouncy couches. I got through 50% and died and pretty much gave up on it.

On the subject of horrible game boy games I own, name the game:


This was one of the first game boy games released.
