There have been many obscure games throughout the history of RPGs, but some of them are real gems.
One such title is Moonstone: A Hard Days Knight, from 1991. It was initially published for the Amiga, and there was also an MS DOS version. Nowadays you can play it on an emulator (like DosBox), or even on a web browser.
It's an incredibly addictive game. I lost countless hours playing it during the 90's, and I still play it to this day, every once in a while. There's no save/load mechanism, so that means that every session is necessarily a no-reload session. You either finish the game in one session or you lose, lol. It's not a long game though. Once you learn certain tactics, it can be finished in about an hour.
I might do a narrated run in the near future. For now, here's a review that I found on YouTube. It's missing some details, but I think it's a fair review, overall.
Have you played this game yourself? Let me know in the comments!
