Title: Gauntlet Clones
Post by: Metalslug on September 03, 2006, 01:14:24 PM
I am a collector searching for gauntlet clones for the sega genesis, sega-cd, turboduo and pc-engine. Please help! I also like action games like Mercs and Ikari Warriors so if you know of any of those I would appreciate it too.

What's crystal beans like? I don't really care for the way snes games look- too cutesy.

It's like Dungeon Explorer, only with better graphics. I'd say it is just as boring as the previous games. :)

Thanx! I really appreciate you doing that for me. I think I would pick it up if I collected super famicom games but it's just too cutesy to warrant a system purchase. Any other ideas. Right now I'm playing these gauntlet and ikari clones:
Mercs Fatal Labrynth Rambo 3 Soldiers of Fortune- Hot! Gauntlet 4 Arcus Odyssey- I want to pick up the mega cd version Dungeon Explorer Sega cd Dungeon explorer pcengine Dungeon Explorer 2 Gotzendeiner Heimdal Landstalker Light Crusader Gain Ground Gain Ground SX Brandish Fray Final Zone 2
Looking for: Caliber .50 final zone crackdown skeleton krew technoclash beyond oasis valkyrie

Thanx. I've seen photos of this game but the video is awesome. I definately have to get this. I like the boulder squish animation.

The Mega CD version of Arcus is a first person dungeon crawler like Wizardry.

Say it aint so. :( I thought Arcus Odyssey was a compilation of 1 2 and 3. #1 for the Genny was an overhead dungeon crawler.

Arcus Odyssey on Mega Drive is an overhead ... game. Arcus 1-2-3 is a first person dungeon crawler.

Arcus Odyssey is actually a side story or something from what Zig told me, the Arcus 123 disc has the origanl Arcus games from some old Japanese computer system. They're actually really cool though, and fairly linear and easy to play. Plus the cinemas are cool, and the graphics are all nice and large. I'm planning on playing all the way through them as soon as I can locate a converter for my Sega CD (which are a BITCH to find!).

hmm, I wouldn't consider any of those DE or Gauntlet clones. Unless you're considering topdown action as the relative similarity.

I don't think there are any Gauntlet clones (except DE), who would want to rip-off such a terrible game? ;) Name one Gauntlet clone (CLONE, not a remotely similiar game).

He said that he's looking for Gauntlet clones and action games like Mercs and Ikari Warriors and his list of examples includes Landstalker and Gotzendeiner.

Try Granada. I don't dig it, but a few people here do, and I think it'd be your kind of game.

Granada for the duo- I've heard of XGranadaX but I think that's a shmup.

There is a sweet Granada-style game for PCE (HuCard) called Metal Stoker. It doesn't seem to be talked about much, but I love that game. Another game similar to Granada and Metal Stoker is Jackal for NES (probably an arcade port), which is a fantastic game.

You're right, we don't ever talk about Metal Stoker. It's not as awesome as Jackal for NES, but it is a decent game in its own right. I never beat it, though, have you? I can't remember how far I got in the game (not that I could tell, anyway).
Somebody needs to post the ending to Metal Stoker on YouTube :)

Haven't beat Metal Stoker, I think I made it to level 3 or 4 last time I played it. If I recall, the levels can be pretty long. Maybe I'll try beating it soon, it's a fun game. It has that unique Face-style sound to it, like Time Cruise.

Thank you for reminding me of Metal Stoker! I loved Granada on the Gen. I need Metal Stoker in my life.

No prob, I think you'll enjoy it. I really dig it's futuristic themed graphics.
