10/31/2023: Localization News - Dead of the Brain 1!

No, NOT a trick, a Halloween treat! Presenting the Dead of the Brain 1 English patch by David Shadoff for the DEAD last official PC Engine CD game published by NEC before exiting the console biz in 1999! I helped edit/betatest and it's also a game I actually finished in 2023, yaaay! Shubibiman also did a French localization. github.com/dshadoff/DeadoftheBrain

Oh my goodness - I'm pretty sure the golem that I remember is from Mado King Granzort

That is a SuperGrafx game too. So at this point I am totally willing to say the search is over mainly because my memory is corrupted. Thank you all again! I have discovered so many "new" games thanks to this thread!

it was more realistic than cartoony

i do apologize if i have mixed up some details in my memory - i am watching rastan saga 2 right now and while it does look interesting, i kinda doubt it as well - does look kinda similar to what I remember however - just like Legendary Axe II does

i have also checked out monster lair, its not that either unfortunately :(

i will say this however: the golem boss that i remember, I believe it starts out as some rocks and then either assembles or stands up to fight you. i recall the trick to defeating it was to stand on it's shoulder and just bash it's head.

thank you all very much! i checked out the suggested titles on youtube and I do not believe nay of them match :(

I am starting to think my memory is corrupted and I am mixing some things up. I was VERY little back then, probably about 3-5 years old. I only really remember that ONE game, or at least I think of it just being a single game.

The closest that I can find is Legendary Axe II but its not exactly what I remember... again, I am grateful for all suggestions still and won't stop looking! lol

its like a quest, except instead of saving the world or curing some ailing relative, i'm going to probably find some grotty old game that i will be embarrassed to say I loved lol

Howdy everyone,

This is my first post here and I hope this is the right forum for it. Let me know (politely!) if this is against any rules or whatever.

I am here to respectfully ask for your help in getting the name of an old TurboGrafx 16 / PC-Engine game:

1 - The game was an action/platformer - medieval-fantasy
2 - It may have been Non-North American (Uncle is Chinese, game might have been Japanese?)
3 - Involved fighting a giant boss that was a rock golem / rock man - I think I defeated him by standing on his shoulder and hitting his head.
4 - There was a level where you could ride on bees / dragon flies / flying insects of some kind, i think you used the stinger of the creature to attack the enemies

I am sorry but that is all that I can remember, its been more than 20 years and it was my Uncle's - he lost it and the console during a move (i think my aunt tossed it for him, helpfully so i'm sure lol)

I have very fond memories of playing this game and would love to find it again. I have searched/googled about for months now and haven't come across anything. I don't even remember if it was on CD or card, though I'm pretty sure he had some CD based games too.
