Egg Console Relics PC-8801

released on Sep 28, 2023

This work is an action-adventure game released by Borstech in 1986. The main character was floating as a spirit in a ruin that suddenly appeared from under the sea. There is no explanation as to why he became a mental body or what the protagonist must do, and as you explore the ruins, you get a vague picture of the situation. One of the highlights of this game is the system called Spirit Ride, which possesses the defeated opponent. Attack methods and durability differ depending on the possessed body, so the key to success is deciding which creature to possess as you continue your exploration. Furthermore, the items you can obtain will change depending on your actions, and the story development and ending will also change, so it is up to the player to decide how to proceed with their exploration within the ruins.

A bizarre, atmospheric, grotesque adventure game where you play as a spirit and possess bodies in order to find your original self. Exploring hellscape undersea ruins and triumph in battle to body hop to freedom!

This game is archaic to control as you have to use directional movements to open menus, turn, interact in specific ways, and it's very obtuse with explaining how anything really works. However, the flip side to that is the cryptic notes and odd game design drew me in and hooked me with wanting to find out more!

A strange obscurity, but one I'm growing to love very much!
