Rygar for NES, a game that is better in emulation

Rygar for the NES is an adventure RPG with no save function or password system. It is well designed in other respects, but this was a killer flaw. It takes hours to complete and turning off your Nintendo meant you had to start over from scratch. In 1986 this was not a good game.

Today, almost any emulation platform you choose will have some sort of save or snapshot system built in. Rygar, which was an elaborate chore of a game, becomes a well designed sometimes surprising adventure. Like a lot of action RPGs and unlike a lot of other Nintendo games it is designed to be won! Give it a try on the Switch or wherever you play Nintendo.
