    Ok I will give a someone a free Gold tin limited edition ps2 game king kong with concept art and dvd if anyone can help me remeber this game. I will post it to you

    What I can tell you isnt much tho. :mad:

    I played it 19-20 years ago in a video game arcade.

    It was a platformer type game

    First level, you are a young boy wearing blue outfit, there was a cheat if you stood in a certain spot for a few seconds a fairy would come out and help you. ( The grass resembles that of sonic 1)

    Second level: you are a hercules looking type man on the back of a chariot while its moving enemies approach from behind (yes we know the joke) on horseback.

    Im sorry but that is all I can say about it :confused:

    I have tried google many times with no joy, so thought Id post it up here for the experts :)

    In three Wonders you're a little boy type guy with blue clothes..the ground is a very similar green to Sonic and it has a chariot level.

    If it's not that, then that's one massive coincidence!

    Yeah but the chariot level you are on a chariot. Which is moving along a sandy ground. And you are a completely different character than the first level :confused:

    Im sorry man but its defo not it :(

    A few questions to help narrow it down:

    Did you definitely play it in an arcade?

    2-D, 3-D, or Isometric view?

    If 2-D, was there a depth of field you could move back into (like Cadillacs and Dinosaurs) or just on one plane like Sonic?

    Were either of the first 2 levels autoscrolling?

    Its 2-d. No dept. the second level was auto scrolling you had no control over the chariot you were standig on the back of it.

    Nope, thanks tho


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,408 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Was it cutesy, comicbooky or with a more realistic art style. How do you attack in the game and what weapon does the main guy use if any?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 2,168 Mod ✭✭✭✭L1m1tless


    first level resembles sonic, second level was mroe like sunset riders




    I cant remember the weapon in the first level but when your older and on the chariot, you had a Whip or a sword, But Im leaning more towards a whip.

    Thanks for the kind offer, but I must decline. I'm actually going to sell my stuff off soon also, I just don't have the time to play anymore.

    I'm currently in the market for a motorbike if you have one spare?:)

    I never thought much of the platform games on CPS-1 with the exception of Ghouls 'n Ghosts. Even Magic Sword has dropped down in my estimation!
