This topic has came to my mind while dipping into some old classic PC games spanning the beginning to the era of polygons becoming a norm. So I made this thread to discuss, share, or learn of games that hardly anyone has heard of.
Heart of Darkness ( For the PS1, and PC.)
If you are familiar with the context with 'Out of this World', then you should be already predict with how this game pans out to be. I have only seen a LTP of this, but the game is amazingly well animated and the plot is pretty much deeper than you could possibly imagination. But that is to be expected when the same makers who get inspired by wild, and crazy tales that actually happen.
LBA, or Relentless Twinsen's Adventure. It also has a sequel called LBA 2, or Twinsen's Odyssey. (Game is now for free, and is on multiple ports. Not sure for the second, though.)
I was introduced to this game by the LTP, Frankomatic. It is one of those VERY early polygon games that was considered ahead of it's time. Since it has aged, the tanky controls can be a bit uneasy to learn and the game itself can be difficult. Overall, the aesthetics and music can be very pleasing. I haven't really played this game much myself since it does take some time to get into due to those controls.
LSD (For PS1)
I known this game before it became a 'meme' for some reason or another. Especially having a book to see paths where the next dream will take. I happen to like dreams, especially doing lucid ones, so it takes the cake. My only complaint that sometimes the emulator kinda flickers way too much, or graphics flash way too fast for my eyes. I also had a jump scare a few times, especially with the baby man that appears randomly.
Secret of Evermore ( For Super Nintendo.)
One of my favorite obscured games. Ever since I was a child, and seeing the commercial for the first time...
It still sends chills down my spine like no other. Oddly, this game had MORE depth behind it than what was going to be applied. Due to rushing it out, the game never got to show off beyond what it was capable of. This was an American answer to the Secret of Mana, and thus, never came out over in Japan. A strange move by the now Square Enix, I must say.
But what this game did was feature the now, and famous Jeremy Soule. This was his first game to work on, and probably one of my most favorite OST.
Other honorable mentions...
The Neverhood, Pulseman, Dynamite Headdy, Mischief Makers, Congo's Capers, Live-A-Live, Dino City, Uniracers, abadox, Golgo 13, EVO, And others I can't seem to list off the top of my head....
