Romantic Games

Post by Juan F. Ramirez »

After the Year of the Dog, now it's time to Valentine's Day!!!

So 'squeeze' your brains and post how many games with a romantic topic. I'm thinking of:

Mikie
Zorro
B.C. Bill
BC's Quest For Tires

Yeah, it seems prehistoric men were very romantic... :D

Popeye - collecting the hearts to give to Olive.
Mikie - putting a love letter together for his girlfriend

Ghosts'n'Goblins - dark, tragic story of strong, romantic love interrupted by forces of evil. The hero after losing his beloved one to spawns of hell, descends on a dangerous journey with heart filled with love and pain to reunite with his inamorata.

It’s Samantha for me. Maria was a bit . . . plain. :D
Every man should plant a tree, build a house, and write a ZX Spectrum game.

Actually Maria Xmas Box is probably the ugliest strip poker on Spectrum and maybe the ugliest strip poker I have ever seen.

My dog would create better graphics than that :D

By the same analogy, it'd be Ghouls 'n' Ghosts as well.

Hunchback has you trying to rescue Esmeralda.

For a bit of romantic equality in Ant Attack you can choose to be either a boy or a girl to do the whole saving your truelove from evil type thing.

On the flip side of things :) there's Run Bronwyn, Run where you are escaping from a castle before you have to marry a Prince of your parents choice.

The Sorceress series are probably the first Speccy games featuring a love story between two women. You must rescue your love in the first game, and in the second she stays at home and refreshes your energy when you back.
