Bretonne Lais

Sharp X68000 - Released - November 30, 1990

Bretonne Lais is a role-playing game loosely based on the Breton lays, medieval European (mostly French or English) romance tales drawing inspiration from chivalric stories and Celtic mythology and folklore. Rather than presenting a single story the game is divided into several unrelated scenarios, each involving Celtic legends and mostly focusing on supernatural motives (floating islands, unicorns, popular Celtic figures such as Queen Mab, etc.). The player can choose between several male and female characters with pre-defined anime-style portraits, allocating points into their primary parameters. Much of the game is played solo, though a few NPCs can join the main character one at a time. Despite its Japanese origins the game takes cues from Western RPG design philosophy, offering non-linear exploration of vast interconnected areas. Battles take place on the same screen as exploration and involve turn-based navigation and simple attack commands.

Columns

NEC PC-8801 - Released - 1992

Columns is loosely derived from Tetris, as it involves arranging falling blocks in such a way as to clear them. However, in columns they are groups of 3 same-size but varying color blocks, which must be arranged into sequences of 3 or more, either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. Sequences of 4 or 5 count for double or triple points, and diagonal sequences score the most. The real trick is to set up 'combos' - where one line causes other blocks to drop so as to create other lines. As well as the normal game mode, there is also a 'flash' mode, in which the aim is simply to remove a particular block from the base of the pre-formed pile of bricks. The difficulty of this can be determined by increasing the number of complete rows which are already in place.

Daisenryaku

Microsoft MSX2 - Released - 1986

Daisenryaku ("Great Strategy") is a military strategy game originally from SystemSoft that would spawn many dozens of sequels and spin-off series. The game is a serious strategy game in which the player takes turns to move their military units around a field - each representing a real-life military vehicle - and try to rout the enemy forces and take over their chief base of operations. Similarly to Nintendo's Famicom Wars, the key to victory is in taking over bases with which to generate more units per turn. With a larger number of units the player has a distinct advantage in overpowering the enemy forces. Likewise, each unit is stronger (or weaker) when facing other units of differing types. Players must know when to strike and when to wait patiently until a sufficient amount of back-up has arrived.

Daisenryaku

Nintendo Game Boy - Released - June 12, 1991

Daisenryaku is a traditional military turn-based strategy game. The game uses "fake hexagons"; the hexagons are in fact square. There are two rivals in every scenario, "black" and "white" - and four sides are in game: US, USSR, FRG and Japan, each with specific units, based on realistic warfare, for example Mig-23, Su-24, T-80. Bradley, F-15, F-16.... Like in other Daisenryaku games, each side has to produce units such as infantry, several types of tanks, helicopters, etc. Different units have different strengths and weaknesses. The outcome of combat is determined by the attack strength which varies between different unit types. Game has 6 maps, can be played both against the console or against another human player.

Daisenryaku 88

NEC PC-8801 - Released - 1986

Daisenryaku 88 is the second game in the turn-based war strategy series. The core mechanics are similar to those of Gendai Daisenryaku: there are two belligerents in every scenario, "blue" and "red" (though they can be renamed by the player). The game includes a dozen maps with varied types of locations and terrains (islands, deserts, mountains, etc.). Many of these maps based on real-world locations (e.g. Europe, China and Korea, etc.), though without any specific dates or pre-history given, and always with contemporary weapons and vehicles. A map editor is also included. Like in other Daisenryaku games, each side has to produce units such as infantry, several types of tanks, helicopters, etc. Production costs money, and fuel has to be delivered to the units regularly with supply trucks. Participants then navigate their units on a hex-based grid, trying to occupy cities and airports on the way for strategic advantage.

Daisenryaku Expert

Super Nintendo Entertainment System - Released - September 25, 1992

Daisenryaku ("Great Strategy") Expert is a military strategy game from SystemSoft and the eighth in their Daisenryaku series. As with many others in the series, the goal is to defeat the other side by taking over key strategic locations, use those locations to produce new units and overwhelm the enemy forces who are busy attempting to do the same to the player. These scenarios play out with one player moving all their units, and then allowing the opponent to take their turn. In these respects, it is not dissimilar to Intelligent Systems' Nintendo Wars series. The "Expert" subtitle was added to the Super Famicom games in the series. The next (and last) Super Famicom game was titled Daisenryaku Expert WWII: War in Europe, which was released four years later

Daisenryaku Expert WWII: War in Europe

The final battle involves either defending Berlin or attempting to occupy it. Like most Daisenryaku games, airplanes can only be manufactured on airports, ships can only be manufactured on docks, and land-based units can only be manufactured on urban hexes that are closest to the headquarters. Dive bombers can destroy cities and airports, destroying people and supplies. Even when retreating, enemy combatants can still catch up to the retreating units and knock them out, providing that they have enough ammo and gasoline to do the job.

The player has to manage unit production, deliver supply vehicles, and navigate infantry, tanks, aircraft and ships on a hex-based grid map, trying to conquer the opponent's cities and strategic locations. The main new feature of this installment is the introduction of two additional possible belligerents ("green" and "yellow"), along with the old "blue" and "red". Any of the four sides can be assigned to be controlled by either a human player or the computer AI. Many of the maps may feature only two or three sides, but some offer a full-scale war between four armies. A few maps are based on real geographical areas (e.g. Italy), or may allude to a historical conflict, such as the conquests of the Roman Empire; weapons and vehicles, however, are always modern.

Time passes regardless of the player's actions, and if it takes too long for the player to prepare his army, the enemy will advance and conquer his land. There are 12 different scenarios to choose from. Like other Daisenryaku games, there are no concrete historical wars among the game's scenarios, and no specific countries (scenarios like "Iceland" or "Great Wall" are the same abstract maps as the others). As always, the wars occur between "color" armies - Red, Blue, Yellow, etc. The player must first choose which army he wants to control. Headquarters require special management, including money, resources, fuel, etc. Other aspects of the game are similar to the previous Daisenryaku and include protection for the cities, management of the army, and the actual combat mechanics - moving tanks, planes, and other types of units on the top-down map. Combat occurs when player's and enemy units are near each other, and evolves automatically. Daisenryaku IV also allows playing scenarios against other players online over the modem.

For convenience, some of the most common verb commands (Look, Take, etc.) can be accessed by pressing a corresponding button, but the player still has to type the name of an object. This remake also helps the player to interact with the environment by displaying a list of objects after the player has typed a command. The most notable feature of the remake is the addition of graphics. Every location has a unique background picture, on which the text is super-imposed.

Master of Monsters

NEC TurboGrafx-CD - Released - February 15, 1991

Master of Monsters is a turn-based strategy game in which you choose one of five different wizards and fight the other wizards for domination of the land that stands without a ruler after the master wizard's death. You can play in two campaigns against the computer which requires you to defeat the enemy wizards on all maps and allows you to take all units that have survived a battle into the next one. You can also play all maps individually with up two four human players. In battles, you can summon different monsters and cast spells. Which monsters you can summon and which spells you can use depends on which wizard you have chosen. Your aim in every battle is to defeat all other wizards and thus conquering the land (In the campaigns you only have a limited number of turns to do so). Your wizard and monsters gain experience from fighting and your monsters' abilities differ largely from one-another. For example some monsters can execute long-range attacks, some have strong magic attacks but are physically weak. Furthermore, their movement is affected by different terrain types. While flying monsters can move freely, most of the other monster have a preferred terrain type (lizards move best in water etc.). You can summon up two 30 monsters per battle, but how many monsters you can summon each turn is not only determined by the amount of MP, but also by the number of towers that you control, which makes conquering and defending towers a key-element in battles.

Master of Monsters Final: Rings of Twilight

NEC PC-9801 - Released - November 28, 1992

Master of Monsters Final is a turn-based strategy game in which the player takes the role of a master whose tribe is chosen by the player and the aim of the game is to defeat the masters of all the enemies to conquer them. Defeating each master kills all the remaining enemies. The master acquires different spells depending on the tribe chosen. Players can summon different kinds of creatures such as humans, elves, barbarians, trolls, skeletons, angels, demons and other kinds of monsters depending on the alignment chosen (Law, Neutral, and Chaos). The game adds an RPG element to the series by focusing solely on its campaign, allowing players to form or break alliances with other alignments or even be neutral to all of them. Compared to its predecessor, monsters can't be summoned during battles so they have to be purchased before jumping into the action. Master of Monsters Final gives players the possibility to explore the maps as much as they would want to even after defeating all the masters. There are 4 endings available to the players based on the alliances they make during gameplay. This game ditches the anime style of the former games and ramps up the difficulty, while also adding a MIDI soundtrack and changes to the overall interface, making battles occur in a top-down perspective. In addition to that, the Windows version overhauls the graphics and music, improves the script of the story and fixes some of the event-related bugs of the PC-98 version, such as the inability to create a synthetic monster.

Master of Monsters: Disciples of Gaia

Sony Playstation - Released - January 1, 1998

Restricted by the laws of heaven, the gods had no choice but to sit back and watch the humans of Earthland destroy each other, their wars never seeming to cease. One day, however, the powerful Gaia had had enough. Along with six disciples, Gaia exited heaven in an attempt to set things straight on Earthland -- or so he led his disciples to believe. Upon his dissension, Gaia became greedy for power, summoning an army of monsters to parade with him throughout the entire world and locking his disciples into one of the many new magical towers he had constructed. After his home, friends and parents were destroyed by Gaia's army, a 15-year-old human boy named Iros felt helpless. "If only I had more power!" he exclaimed in frustration. As though hearing his cries from heaven, a globe of light presented itself before the boy, bearing with it a magical pendant with the power to free one of Gaia's disciples. At last Iros had a chance to avenge his losses and free the rest of the world from the oppression of Gaia. In Master of Monsters, it's up to you to assume Iros' role in choosing which disciple to free and lead an army of summoned monsters against the forces of Gaia. Among your choices are Necromancer, Summoner, Justice, Warlock, Fortuner, and Shadowmaster, each with his or her own strengths and weaknesses, usually relating to fighting ability or magical powers. Once your leader is chosen, your quest to destroy Gaia begins. On a hexagon-based battlefield, you have control over the monsters summoned (e.g., soldiers, magicians, neophytes, unicorns, rocs, elves, trolls, fairies, etc.) and their movement across the battlefield. The higher a leader's ruling power, the more monsters can be summoned. Positioning a warrior onto one of the many unoccupied or enemy-ruled magical towers can increase ruling power. After the leader of the opposing army has been defeated, you have won the battle and are one step closer to defeating Gaia. As your warriors battle across the game's 13 types of terrain, they will gain experience points, leading to advancement in experience levels. After certain levels are achieved, the warrior can also graduate in class (e.g., a soldier becomes a knight). When at a monastery, two monsters can even fuse together to become another entity. However, this is not always a favorable action as the results can yield anything from a powerful dragon knight to a useless slime. Defeat Gaia and free Earthland. Only then will you be a true Master of Monsters. Features: Collect and summon over 85 creatures in battle to defeat your foe Explore 40 different maps as you battle enemies using magic, melee, and ranged attacks Select your character from six disciples and then lead them through a variety of environments to defeat Gaia Buy and sell more than 200 weapons, objects, and magic items

Nectaris

NEC PC-9801 - Released - September 17, 1992

Nectaris / Military Madness is a futuristic turn-based strategy war game. The year is 2089 and the setting is Earth’s moon, which yields many important resources. While the governments of Earth bicker over their staked claims on the moon, the evil Axis Empire launches a lunar military campaign and takes over the moon, using its factories to produce advanced weaponry, the most devastating of which is the SAM (Supreme Atomic Missile). As commander of the Allied forces, it is the player’s responsibility to lead what’s left of the Allied armies in a desperate offensive against the Axis Empire on the lunar surface before they can use the SAM to destroy Earth. There are 32 maps (2 different campaigns with 16 maps each) to play through. In each map, the player must strategically defeat the outnumbering Axis forces either by destroying all enemy units or capturing the enemy base camp. There are many different units that both sides utilize - infantry, tanks, aircraft, artillery, and a few others that have specialized functions. Gameplay consists of moving units into positions that will gain the best advantage to attack the enemy, capitalizing on many factors, which include battle experience, terrain, support tactics, and - sometimes - pure luck.

Shanghai

Microsoft MSX2 - Released - 1988

Shanghai is one of the first video game adaptations of the tile-based game played with the Chinese mahjong stones - essentially a puzzle game that has little to do with real mahjong rules. The gameplay involves 144 tiles, each depicting different images, which have to be removed by matching them into pairs. The tiles are arranged in a gridded pattern, which is higher near the centre. A tile can only be removed if it has no tile next to it on at least one side. This computer implementation can generate a random board layout to take on and features five preset challenges, some of which have time limits of five or ten minutes, as well as a multiplayer mode.
