2018 Frame Game

The reason that was my guess is basically because I figured you might do something like that, and I think it’s certainly a legitimate reason. I’m actually quite curious about the game, but since I’ve barely played PoE2 so far, I might wait a bit before buying. But your enthusiasm about it is somewhat infections and I’m intrigued about the game, so there’s that. ;)

As @rhamorim is as busy as usual, I propose you this little interlude for the week-end.
It’s super tricky and obscure, but since it doesn’t count, I hope to not get too much flak. And look at those scanlines, even through the blur of those rescaled jpeg images! It’s the first time I take a picture of a TV screen, and I couldn’t figure how to help the blurriness with my aged phone.
I’ll post a new frame every few hours.

As a hint, this was a Japanese exclusive.

Fatal Frame, uh 4? (The Wii exclusive one?)

Nope: the poor quality is solely due my own lens, not the game’s!

@Left_Empty there is at least five different games there, you are definitely trolling us!

Actually, you are right: there are more than a single game in there.

It was Kuron/Kowloon Yomagakuenki, a puzzle, Wizardry style dungeon crawler, inside an episodic sound novel canvas, with a crafting game and a fake internet browser to keep you busy.
And FMVs thrown in. And a jazzy soundtrack performed for the most part by a live band.
And it also featured a fake NES Adventure/RPG for good measure.
The only thing it lacks is the obligatory awkward dating sim. The game is a contrarian.

It’s as awesome as it’s buggy. It got a second edition released, that fixed some of the issues, but introduced new ones — in my game, the business part of the crafting game was bugged and basically served no purpose, yielding zero rewards.

Hopefully @rhamorim will have time for a proper frame now :O

Haha, as if!

Kingdom Rush

Incorrectowerdefense!*

* I’m not saying the correct game is tower defense or that it’s not. I’m just emulating people in the movie frame game. ;)

It’s super familiar I hope it’s not a porn game…

The “Rank C” is so familiar…Advance Wars?

I was thinking the same thing. The color palette, the “Rank C” and all that. But it’s widescreen, and not the GBA’s version of widescreen, but rather 16:9. And I have no idea what that orange/red thing is. This is confusing me.

It’s not a porn game (well, that I know of), and here’s more of it…

Ah, I know what it is: I had thought there was an on-screen map, but it is part of the décor.

No guesses? Should I post a new frame or wait a little longer?

Looks kinda like Final Fantasy Tactics.
Or maybe it doesn’t. Been a few years since played it.

Definitely not, FFT was isometric.

It does seem distinctly Square though, the ‘flower’ and cliffs remind me of Mana series games.

So Senken Densetsu 3
