Sunshine was the game that taught me what "several" meant. In the manual they state that there are "several" other configurations for the water back pack. I thought it meant seven. I was very disappointed.
I resented the word "several" for years after that and avoided using it.

Now THIS is pod racing!

It's like Minecraft except 2D and generally a lot more fun.

This game brought forth one of the earliest existential crisis I can remember. No matter how good I was, no matter how fast I went, I could never escape that which is most inevitable: death.

Play this game if you like Big MONEY! or Big PRIZES!

Got very close to the end of this game, then I updated my computer from FAT32 to NTFS and the game broke. Returned to it a couple of times since but never got that far again. A pretty good story, but really the world building is what makes this game a gem. Its combat leaves much to be desired and is the reason I can't give it a 5.
The Art of Learning tutorials in this game are fantastic for learning the fundamentals of chess theory. I'd recommend it to anyone interested in Chess.
Best part was wasting tiny storm troopers in my big ol' X-wing. They even screamed! Hilarious stuff.

Really cool game, absolutely dripping with atmosphere and vibe. It's like if WWI was written by Frank Herbert and made into a game by the makers of Missile Command.
The game is difficult, frustrating, and quite fun. There is so much more depth than I had the constitution to explore. I wish there was an easy mode honestly but I respect this game so much for being what it is and compromising its vision.

One of the best soundtracks on the NES.

I really love the way this game weaves individual stories for your characters. Even though I got kinda tired of it after a few days, particularly I think the combat could be a lot better, I still think what it does that's good is just awesome.

If you enjoy QWOP or Getting Over It with Benett Foddy, then you should check this game out. Very similar thing going on.
I only played enough of this game to figure out when you transform into a ninja and duck you become flat as a board. That was enough for me to remember this game over 20 years later.

Incredibly chill and absolutely beautiful. Fantastic times hanging out and exploring. Wonderful little character interactions as well.
I have probably replayed this game more times over the years more than any other game. There's nothing else quite like it. The whole vibe so so great, the visuals own, the setting is wonderful. A lot of stuff really fell into place too once I finally read The Jesus Incident by Dune author Frank Herbet. The extensive manual mentions this in the back as one of the primary influences for the story and setting and they aren't lying! If you really love the setting of this game I highly recommend reading The Pandora Sequence series by Herbert, they are wild and amazing.
