Still here on my hands and knees BEGGING for some kind soul to "translate" this version of Zork. Like, the original Zork was already in English. Just not this specific Saturn/PS1 version with *immaculate vibes* and Koshiro Yuzo music. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZQJ...

This keeps happening in other mobile games and I do not know why. The only thing I can think of is that some part of "Kite Line" is a slur in some other language.

Few things in video games are as satisfying as having a completed save file on an old Japanese fantasy game. Lots of cute lil pixel art items, weapons, and equipment. All laid out nicely in a tidy, organized menu with their own designated cubby made just for them. Yes I do have OCD, why do you ask?
A video game screenshot showing a menu full of pixel art trinkets.

The game is 迷宮城ハイドラ (Hydra Castle Labyrinth) by E.HASHIMOTO/BUSTER.

It's a 2011 freeware game similar to The Maze of Galious. You should play it if you are cool and interesting and sexy and have good taste in everything.

Raindrop Sprinters is SO GOOD and deceptively simple in appearance. It has a surprising amount of depth and strategy with lots of fun secrets to uncover. Even if you don't normally care for arcade-styled games, give this one a go. It's a hidden gem that deserves to be significantly less hidden.
