NES Works Gaiden #038: The Tower of Druaga
🕑 Added 2022-04-13 12:10:18 +0000 UTCAlthough I've been trying to pack three games into each episode of NES Works Gaiden in order to reach the end of 1985 (and therefore the end of the NES Works Gaiden focus on Famicom chronology leading up to the NES launch), some games ya just gotta hand it to with a standalone episode. Games such as The Tower of Druaga. Although I've touched on some of the information in this episode before, the NES Works Gaiden spirit remains true: This episode places it in a more cogent temporal context, which I hope helps to give a better sense of what an accomplishment it was for the time (and therefore better explain its popularity and influence). And if not, well, we'll be jumping back to regular NES Works very soon.

Holy cats, I never knew about the Durga thing. Awesome

It's hard to believe this isn't already six episodes. To be fair, it is just a clone of Xevious and Heiyanko Alien.
