Risky Woods

Jumping and platforming

You sidestep enemies with a dagger as you run through sideways-scrolling forests, timing precise jumps across rivers. Coins dropped by fallen foes fund your visits to the shop, but dying costs you most of them, so every risky detour counts.

Dark Ages

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic side-scrolling DOS platformer from Apogee set in a medieval world, and the first shareware game to support AdLib sound. It offers three episodes of hazards and enemies and is now freeware.

Last Knight: Rogue Rider Edition

Action-packed real-time combat

An action-heavy indie platformer where you charge on horseback and send enemies flying with your lance. Ragdoll physics, destructible environments and over-the-top gore give it a goofy edge.

Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A side-scrolling spin-off of Mortal Kombat that blends brawling with platforming. You play Sub-Zero in a prequel to the first tournament, though clunky controls make it quite frustrating.

Rygar

Jumping and platforming

A classic arcade platformer where the resurrected warrior Rygar fights through hordes of monsters with his Diskarmor to reach the demon Ligar. Fast, linear action with old-school 1980s difficulty.

Athena

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A classic SNK arcade platformer where Princess Athena fights through mythology-inspired worlds, picking up weapons and armor along the way.

Prophecy I: The Viking Child

Jumping and platforming

You play a Viking child in a cartoony side-scroller, fighting through 16 levels to rescue your family from Loki. Along the way you buy potions and magic items in shops and defeat Loki's apprentices.

Prince of Persia 3D

Melee combat with weapons or fists

You play a prince in a 3D world built around jumping, climbing and sword fights, where precise movement matters more than speed. It is a rough early attempt at reviving the series in 3D and today mainly serves as a precursor to Sands of Time.

Rune

Action-packed real-time combat

A brutal third-person hack-and-slash from the early Unreal Engine era, sending Viking Ragnar through Norse mythic realms down to Hel with axes, swords and hammers. Dismemberment, rune powers and platforming sections define the experience.
