Demon Attack
Oh, I remember many a night playing this one.Demon Attack. What is there to say. Everyone loves the classic alien shooter, but what makes Demon Attack great. Its simplicity and of course Demons. Defend to the Death against Demon Bombardiers. Its mesmerising background sound effects intoxicate my gamer needs The dead black screen reminds me of a spiritual gateway to demonic hordes. Different Demons to trick and confuse you with various weapons and kamikaze attacks. And you. The resilient hero. Diligently fighting for hope and freedom from a demonic world with a never ending arsenal. A game way ahead of its time and an instant classic for those who are unfamiliar with it. Show your kids they'll love it. I hope they make an app for this one some day. Good Luck and Enjoy

Bandit Kings of Ancient China
Back in my elementary days, a friend introduced me to a game I never knew even existed. A style of game that is a whisper in a memory or butt end of a joke. There are a lot of under rated games out there, but Bandit Kings of Ancient China takes the cake. A lost story of evil tyranny, war and peace. A fight for popularity to become China's Champion. Common folk and Noblemen alike joining the fight against the evil Gao Qiu plotting with the northern occupancy to usurp the Emperor's throne. All walks of life that you will find have their place in the game. All eager to join the fight for China. With or Without you and sometimes even against you. Innkeepers, Fishermen, Outlaws, Politicians, Entertainers, Farmers, Officers, Priests, Scholars, and Heroes, to name a few. Though the platform of strategic warfare and simulated state economics my seem out of your league or not your style. I dare you to beat it on its easiest level. It Has everything. Building Dams for crops and protection from natural disaster. Hunting for food and fur for citizens and trade. Building structures for defense and economic stability. Skilled craftsmen making weaponry and naval transports. Morality. Magic. Fire. Espionage. Alliances and Betrayals.Loyalty Brotherhood of men. Wild Animals Rampaging the Streets!!! Its Amazing!!! But extremely CHALLENGING. I'VE BEEN PLAYING FOR YEARS AND DARE NOT PLAY ABOVE DIFFICULTY LEVEL 2. Check it out, but give it chance. i promise it will defeat you quickly. If the tyrant wont, your own people will for failing. Quite frankly the best game I've ever played in my 30 years as a gamer. Good Luck and Enjoy.

Knights of the Round: Revisited
Being from the Coin-Op age, this one hits home. Knights of the Round takes will take you back to small arcades and pizza joints of your childhood. Classic heroic story with a surprisingly difficult platform. Arthur, Lancelot, and Percival. Great heroes of lost times battle valiantly for justice and peace. My favorite is Percival, though all are balanced enough to defeat your foe. Easy to peck of Grunts, strong Middle men', for lack of a better term, and bosses that'll beat you down like a rug. There's definitely not enough ways to heal. The occasional scrap of food only keeps your spirits up, not your life. Still all what make this great game a challenge. and will always be a part of my childhood memories. Overall a tremendously playable game that will keep you asking for more and more. Overall rating "8".
