!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

There's this game on the original macintosh that's been my white whale for decades. A samurai/ninja game with a heroes of might and magic style overworld map and and a fighting game style screen with a dense bamboo forest in the background. I've gone through a bunch of archives and I just can't seem to find it

Aw man, that's not it but the game style looks the same, I'll have to look around and see if there are sequels/ports/knockoffs. Thanks!
