Cosmic Fantasy 2's presentation added plenty of gloss over its gameplay, garnering fans and even a limited reprint years later for the Nintendo Switch in 2024. And like the TG-16 CD version of Ys I & II, Cosmic Fantasy 2 became another cutting edge example of the kind of CD magic that was possible!

Working Designs' reputation for injecting pop culture references into their localizations turned certain moments into time capsules that didn't quite age well. "Unhacked" versions of this and other titles are even floating around today undoing their gameplay changes (but not the translation ones).

Legends of Murder Vol 2: Grey Haven (1991) by James Schmalz was a CRPG for DOS PCs. While not a direct sequel to the first game, it was once more set in the same world where you, as a famous Inspector, are confronted with a new, deadly case at a prestigious school! (a battle detective thread)

Cosmic Fantasy 2 (1991) was an RPG by Nippon Telenet for the TurboGrafx-CD. Featuring traditional, turn-based combat, a big world, and a story to unwind, players take on the role of Van whose crush, Laura, is kidnapped by a wicked mage for the power she secretly holds! (a space twist thread)

It also wouldn't be a BoF without dragons! And here, BoF3 introduced a new system with "dragon genes". Once you awaken to your power, you would eventually collect different "genes" and mix them in combos to unlock new forms to change into (just make sure no one is standing next to you!).

Oni also became something of a hit in Japan! Stardust Crusaders writes in their readme for the English patch that it spawned numerous sequels on various platforms including the PlayStation along with novels and even an anime series. Not bad for a lone warrior with simple (and secret) origins!

Wibarm mixed 2D action and 3D exploration. Defeating enemies earned stat improvements (Ability and Mental), different enemies were vulnerable to different weapons, and players were free to explore and leave areas if they were unprepared. You could even 'see' encounters and use an automap!

Legends was fairly obscure like a lot of Softdisk's diskmag games but it was a unique take on the CRPG formula with its murder mystery blend. At the end, you didn't necessarily need insane levels or bleeding edge gear and spells, just an itch for pixel hunting and puzzle solving.

Its ingredients also featured an environmental theme. Like a Captain Planet baddie, Bio-Hazard Harry (Bio-Haz in the game) is seeking to pollute the Kingdom of Greene. During your quest, you'll also deal with things like exposing a corrupt politician and journey to places like the Empire of Sushi!

Amulets & Armor (1997) | action RPG | PC platforms | United Software Artists and Exiguus Entertainment Envisioned as an MMO for BBSes, it later shifted to a single player experience. But Issues limited its run to only 100 copies, revived years later as a free download by one of its programmers!

So defensive! I won’t cut the Bari Weiss-produced 60 Minutes / CBS News any slack with their multiple-Maga coded blatherings, but I will give this to Norah O’Donnell — she certainly got under that paper-thin tangerine-tinted hide. Nice to see a little of the former decent journalist break through.
