Emulators were a big part of how I discovered and played retro games in the 1990s. Before I could really go anywhere outside of my hometown, I would wander from website to website downloading NES, SNES, Game Boy, and Genesis ROMs. I don’t remember all of the games I played back then, but some madeContinue reading “The Best Retro Games I Played on an Emulator”

Which is better? Phantasy Star III vs Robotrek
Robotrek and Phantasy Star III are both unique games, but for different reasons. Both games are science fiction, which is a fun change of pace from the high fantasy games I’ve been looking at. We also get a match up of an SNES game and a Sega Genesis game. Robotrek is one of the gamesContinue reading “Which is better? Phantasy Star III vs Robotrek”
Which is better? Robotrek or Dragon Quest II
This is going to be a tough one to get through for me. Dragon Quest II and Robotrek are very different games, and I’ve had different reactions to them when I first played them. One of them instantly grabbed my attention, and the other ended up wearing me down as I played it. Both areContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek or Dragon Quest II”
Which is better? Robotrek or Phantasy Star II
It has been a while since I’ve compared two science fiction games to each other. This time, I’ll be looking at Robotrek and Phantasy Star II. This should be fun because I really like one of these games, and the other is something that I want to like more than I do. Robotrek is aContinue reading “Which is better?

Which is better? Robotrek vs Destiny of an Emperor
This is going to be another odd one. Robotrek and Destiny of an Emperor don’t have much in common. There aren’t too many RPGs out there that are similar to them. One interesting thing is that neither game has magic. These are two games that I played on an emulator first before finding the cartridgesContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek vs Destiny of an Emperor”
Which is better? Robotrek vs Sweet Home
This should be fun to go through! Sweet Home and Robotrek are very different games, and don’t play like other RPGs. With how different these games are, this will get a little strange as I go through them. After all, one is pure horror, and the other is a comedic science fiction game. Sweet HomeContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek vs Sweet Home”
Which is better? Robotrek vs Final Fantasy
Robotrek and Final Fantasy are pretty different games. They have different approaches to just about everything, but there are a handful of similarities. Many of them are because these are both turn based RPGs, and they have similar approaches to telling their story. These are two of my favorite RPGs. Final Fantasy was the firstContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek vs Final Fantasy”
Which is better? Robotrek vs Dragon Quest
Robotrek and Dragon Quest is an interesting match up. Science fiction and high fantasy games usually make for some interesting comparisons. This one is a little tricky because Dragon Quest is a fairly basic RPG. Both games were published by Enix, but made by different development teams. They were also made at different times, whichContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek vs Dragon Quest”
Which is better? Robotrek vs Phantasy Star
Robotrek and Phantasy Star don’t have too much in common. While they’re both turn-based RPGs and have science fiction settings, there are way more differences. These are both fun games, but I had way more fun with one of them! I enjoy the different takes on science fiction in these games. Phantasy Star is moreContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek vs Phantasy Star”
Which is better? Robotrek vs Final Fantasy Mystic Quest
Robotrek and Final Fantasy Mystic Quest are both turn-based RPGs on the SNES, and they’re fairly simple games. Neither takes that long to beat, and in some ways, they feel like starter games in the genre. They also have some similar gameplay mechanics. It is a lot of fun for me to compare a scienceContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek vs Final Fantasy Mystic Quest”
