A Namco arcade game that is a prime example of that good ol' cryptic 80s bullshit design, yet I somehow can't hate it despite that? I was first introduced to The Tower of Druaga through Namco Museum Vol. 3 for the PlayStation, and there was something I found appealing about all of it: setting, art style, music and finding out that completing it always involved secret items. Dragging myself to keep climbing the tower over and over again, I've vowed that I would kill Druaga and get to Floor 60 someday, though I still tend to give up twenty floors in.

Hopefully I'll cross this one off my bucket list soon.
