Really Obscure RPGs

[Sotomonte]

In archive.org there is a zip in which you can see a file called yendor-full.exe but I don't know if it is the full version.

https://ia802700.us.archive.org/vie...dorian_Tales_-_The_Tyrants_of_Thaine_1997.zip


The archive.org zip has the same size as the game you can download at myabandonware.com so it can be the same version.

That's actually the 3rd game. It would be called Yendorian Tales Book 1.

Looking through older threads, it seems like Luzur has copy.

The problem I have with this version is that, when I start the first one, I do it with a party of 4 already created and I am not able to create my own party.

If I try to create another game from the SETUP it starts asking me for disk 1

You can actually talk to the innkeeper and select book to create a new party. You can even re-watch the intro from that book menu as well. That party actually starts in the first town. Although I didn't know about the book menu at first and ended up grabbing the save files from the Shareware version to start fresh (CURRGAME and SAVEGAME.A folders).

That could be my old party

Do you remember where you level up Rogues? I've explored quite a bit and found a lot of trainers for the other 3 classes but not a single one for Rogues.

Aren't they versions of YT 2 and YT 3 that I gave you back in 2009? I'm glad that they still travel around.

The time on the files is right (05.09.2009), so they are indeed mine. Was glad to help. Copied them from some pirate CD back in the times.

Ok so the Wikipedia page for Role-playing games uses a picture from a game called Tales of Trolls & Treasures. Now, apart from a few very very ancient posts on the RPG codex and 3 screenshots, I swear to god this game doesn't actually exist. So it's extremely bizzare that someone has put it on such a broad and highly viewed Wikipedia page. If anyone can find a video of this game, or has a copy of it and can make a short Let's Play, I would be forever in their debt

Note how this third pic is using Baldurs Gate 2 portraits

Weird how the official page seems to be an earlier version of their website http://www.rpg-project.com:80/pages/down.htm

You can find the lastest download version they got up to through archiving their page here.

Riamel: Black Prophecy​

https://www.gamesthatwerent.com/2022/06/riamel-black-prophecy/

former lost Amiga RPG

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

While looking at Magdarr & Death on gamebase I saw this Dungeon [preview]


Hmmm... a blobber i guess for c64.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Link should be fixed now.

 

[Theldaran]

It's the same as Disco Elysium, but hopefully without the talk about socialism.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Anyone try this?


Style seems like Al-Qadim genies curse or World of Aden: Plague of Darkfall. You know, that real time solo adventure combat type game that seems like an odd duck swimming in thick mud.

 

[Tavernking]

Here's a stash of obscure late-2000s/early-2010s RPGs, never before mentioned on rpgcodex! I can personally vouch for all of them too, they are half-decent. Best part is they're all free to play.

Wasted Youth (2011)
Comedic school RPG much like Rockstar’s 2006 ‘Bully’ game. Great quests and characters. About 6 hours of gameplay.


Sonny 2 (2009)
A RPG battle game with turn-based combat. Great art and music. This will take you a few hours.


The Awakening RPG (2014)
All I’ll say is that you can really feel the love that the developer put into this game.


Mardek 3 (2010)
This game is huge. Mardek 1 and 2 both take about 3 hours to complete. The 3rd and final entry to the series will take you around 40 hours.


Arcuz (Full Version) (2011)
Diablo-like with good art.

 

[Tavernking]

Hands of War 3 (2013)


Hash Slash Crawl (2011)
Another Diablo-like


Feudalism 3 (2013)


Worlds End Chapter One (2013)
There’s a trilogy, but I never got too far into it.


The Chimaera Stones RPG (2009)
Inspired by Ultima. I played this briefly when it came out. Whether it's a cheap knockoff or a hidden gem I don't know, someone should do an investigation...

 

[ShaggyMoose]

I went looking for Chimaera Stones and it seems like its a Flash game?!?

 

[V_K]

I went looking for Chimaera Stones and it seems like its a Flash game?!?

Yep, quite possibly.
I seem to vaguely remember playing it back in the day and finding it very short, easy and bare-bones. But don't quote me on that.

They're all flash-games, as far as I know, there's only 2 I never heard about out 10 and I played 7 of them.

World's End is a very good tactical game.
Awakening was really good but incomplete (even abandonned, unfortunately) last time I checked.
Feudalism series was a kind of flash Mount & Blade before M&B even existed.
Arcuz 1 & 2 are quite good action RPG, dungeon crawler, weapon customization, huge bosses.
I'm not sure which Mardek I played, interesting but I got tired of the "huge dungeon.
Sonny has good jrpg-like combat and interesting build variety, it has been ported to steam.

They're all either on Kongregate, Armorgames or both, there's even a hacked version of Arcuz 1 & 2 (useful for enchanting) somewhere on a hacked flash games website.
