The Ignition Factor casts players as firefighters and puts them in scenarios where they must risk all to save life and property. Super Valis IV for SNES is something of a rarity, an action platformer starring women on a quest to vanquish the lord of the Dark World. Tuff E Nuff is an arcade-style fighting game where characters’ special moves get more powerful the more foes they defeat.
Nightshade Part 1: The Claws of Sutekh was ahead of its time when it launched in 1992. It featured a gritty story of a city besieged by crime syndicates until the vigilante Nightshade steps up. It’s part action, part point-and-click adventure. It even featured a popularity meter that adjusted based on Nightshade’s actions.
