by Armor Project, Bird Studio, Chunsoft, Enix Corporation
Genres:Role-playing (RPG), Adventure
Themes:Fantasy
Game modes:Single player
Story:Dragon Warrior III is a top-down role-playing game where you travel around the overworld, caves, castles, cities and other locations while battling random encounters, buying equipment, and talking to people. You and your party members receive experience when they beat up monsters and level up with enough experience, increasing their stats. The game features a day/night cycle - as you travel, day slowly changes to night and vice versa; shops are typically closed at night. You begin with control of just the main character but can quickly recruit three more members to your party. During the game you can choose to drop your current characters and recruit others at any time. The recruitable characters are divided into six classes: soldier, fighter, merchant, goof-off, pilgrim and wizard. The game has a unique job system, giving you the ability to switch your hired characters' classes after they have achieved at least level 20 in their base class. Characters can switch to the other beginning classes, as well as the sage class, which is not available at the beginning. When a character switches classes, they lose all earned experience points, and half of their stats, but retain all the abilities of the previous class. In this way, you can create powerful combination characters that are able to cast spells and fight effectively.Show more

Silent Hill 3
Silent Hill 3Silent Hill 3 is the third installment in the Silent Hill series. Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.

Teudogar and the Alliance with Rome
Teudogar and the Alliance with RomeTeudogar is a RPG set in Rome during the time of emperor Augustus. You are playing a member of a Teutonic city named Teudogar and your tribe is faced with the question whether to arrange a alliance with Rome or to unify the Teutonic tribes to fight them. The main feature of this game is the historical accuracy. Every aspect of the game world is researched to align with the historical facts. There is even a whole encyclopedia included. Otherwise it is a RPG in the style of Ultima VII: You explore the world in a isometric perspective, talk to a lot of people and solve quests. You have a lot of freedom what to do and what not do do - you can explore the world or concentrate on the plot. Combat is complete turn based but if you are wounded your combat abilities start to decrease dramatically. The character system is based on "learning by doing" - if you use a certain weapon you get better in using it. There are no experiment points. The interface and the movement are completely mouse-controlled.
