Mars Saga?

Bonus shot from the game’s startup screen (as the final screenshot literally has the game’s name in it):

Escape from Hell ???

Nope, never seen it.

I suppose if you’re a giant, bipedal humanoid lizard who’s going to wear tight underpants, you might as well make them hot pink.

I love you guys.

That new picture seems familiar…

EDIT: not going to try and figure it out. I’m pretty sure I saw that specific image at the CRPG Addict blog a few years back, but I’m not going archive diving there to find it. If someone else chose to I’m sure they may find it.

One last bonus pic before I head off to the world of Bloodborne…it’s an SSI game, someone win this! By the designer of the Phantasie series!

That’s some crazy memory at work - and you probably did see it there!

It’s on the tip of my tongue. My great grandfather told me about the time he played this game in college.

Sundog? (Haven’t actually looked to see if that’s an SSI game.)

Ok last shot - if none of you young’uns get this one then I’m going to subject you to something truly awful from my early gaming, like Keef the Thief:

Nobody else is taking the bait, so I’ll say Star Command! The box art is familiar, the game itself is not. Before my time, PC-wise.

I’m familiar with the name Star Command, but I didn’t play it. I feel better for not getting the image now!

Upvoted.

And indeed I had seen that picture. Now that I have the name, finding it was easy ;)

STAN CORMAN!!

Excellent work - take it away!

Star Command was great for it’s time - I loved/hated the character creation also. You simulated each character’s career, picking training options and hoping for free promotions as you went. And of course dreading being assigned to Desk Duty and wasting a whole year.

I’ve got it. It’s Star Command.

Ok, I wonder who will get this one first…
