What Did We Play Yesterday?

Knightmare, also known as Majou Densetsu, is a MSX vertical shooter. It's a mythological fantasy themed walking auto-scroller like Dino Riki or Undeadline (which I don't have posts for, for some reason, wtf), with upgradeable weapons. You can shoot powerups and weapons to change the type, and the timed red orb that lets you set everything on fire was my favorite.

This game is freaking hard and it scrolls really slowly, but it's still compelling. The pseudo-ancient Greece theme is fun. It sent me down a wonderful retro rabbit hole because there are more games in this franchise and they're all completely different.

A little more Genesis Frogger today. I had an especially close call on this one and passed the level by the skin of my teeth, but I promptly died the next one when I got boxed in by a snake (did you know the snakes can spawn on logs? now you do!). Level 5 has been my maximum so far.

Playing Frogger on Genesis cause I do what I want.

I needed to decompress. The snake got me.
