As an aside, does anybody else have 3D Dot Game Heroes? It's a Zelda-like in the vein of the first game, probably worth playing if enough people have it

Well, if we want this to align with Real Months, what would be the second game for April? Sounds like it's a tie between Bloodlines and those weird niche strategy games?

I have dot heroes, but I've 100%'d it and would not play it again.
I still like Umihara Kawase for the next free game.
Most of the paid games mentioned sound neat, and I think I would do any one of them. Luckily I don't mind when games I've already played pop up because it gives me more time to attend to my own unplayed list.
If you did a text adventure, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is available online for free in flash and is relatively substantial. The other text adventures I know are too short to fit the format.
I feel like we should have a certain timeframe after which completed games are locked, maybe after a second month. One month to play, one month to discuss. In this way players will continue to be pushed to the most recent games.

The Hitchhiker's Guide text adventure is really not that good; it's pointlessly easy to make the game unwinnable and most of the puzzles are terrible.
Funny, though.

Well, yeah, CA is right. I had intended to use emulation for the super famicon version. This is identical to treating "The Legend of Zelda" as a free game when it's really a commercial title as well.
Legacy of the Wizard is another excellent choice that I've already played through and completed. That one gives me fond memories of playing with my father, though.
Solstice is another choice in the same vein, though that one must be completed in one sitting (without savestates).
Edit: RABBIT beat me to it.

Legend of Zelda is available as Zelda Classic, though. Noone has to pirate anything to play it.

This is identical to treating "The Legend of Zelda" as a free game when it's really a commercial title as well. where did we do that? isn't the idea to play one free game and one commercial game? loz is commercial, la mulana is freeware and the next game is most likely going to be vampire the masquerade bloodlines which is also a commercial game. so idk guys, am i missing something here? |

Playing the first quest in Zelda Classic is functionally identical to pirating the game.

you can play umihara kawase without knowing a single word of japanese.
since we have to treat it as a commercial title, there is a DS version released that packs both the SFC and the PS1 version of the game. the DS is not region locked.
legacy of the wizard was released in 1989 and it's unlikely falcom/brøderbund will rise a legal action against you if you pirate it, but be careful. the risk is still there
EDIT @ CAsinclair: i think the point here is that people don't want to pirate games?
