Describe a game in such a way that it's impossible to guess what it actually is. Others guess.

In a post-apocalyptic Earth, I have killed a Lesbian warrior to obtain thousands of New American Dollars, which I can exchange into real money at a bank on the top floor of the dungeon.
Moraff's something? Moraff's Dungeon? I remember that some of these games had New American Dollars.
I'll count that. (Moraff's Dungeons of the Unforgiven)
Wizardry for hipsters.
Dark Designs? The RPG from the boys at iD?

This is for one that some have argued is an RPG (but most dexer’s, myself included, would say it’s definitely not and that the people saying it is are tards):

Your sister tries to kill you twice. Or maybe a 1000 times, depending.

This has really turned from "Describe a game in such a way that it's impossible to guess" into "Describe a game that is impossible to guess because nobody else played it".

Yes, it's quite obscure. But I've given one hint that should enable you to figure it out if you at least have heard about it. But then it is Wizardry for hipsters, so you have probably not heard about it.

  1. Will she, nil she, the Lady of the Tower at Charm is at war with her husband once more.
  2. Croaker is a companion, the Limper is missing and there is only a sex changed knockoff version of Soulcatcher.
  3. Belief grants power.
  4. You undertake upon an epic quest to undermine your own professional career.

The story is cut off an entire act before it should end.

You have probably not heard of it.
It was made for a specific platform.

Under Agburg is a maze of dungeons with the occasional monster lair.
One of the two Towers games? The series that started on the Atari ST, moved to the Jaguar? Though both got ported to DOS, so I guess that can't be it.

Thought up another one:
Got my party all set-up, two assassins, two serial killers, and a strip club bouncer. Time to save the country!

It's prey
Nope, good guess though, that does fit from a certain POV. Doesn’t fit the second clue though.
