Whoa, Epic Brix looks a LOT like Puzznic.

True ... never knew Brix was a rip-off game ...

Also, a more recent rip-off of the concept is Blox Forever, though at least it doesn't copy the graphics ...

Tried Operation Wolf long ago, wasn't really good, even never finished it.
If I remember well it was totally repetitive, boring.

Same for RamboIII.

Puzznic on the other hand, my daughter spend whole weeks on that game when she finally got my 486 in her room. And Jill of the jungle .....

Got Taito Legends (both). (Bobble, Wolf, Qix) Got to round 22 without warps in Bobble and 2nd in Wolf, Qix is too hard to me. Exept speaks, arcade version o' Wolf is best.

only taito games i really played where "bust a move "PC demo"" and "puzzle bobble: part 2: adventure island"

currently we got the full version of "bust a move 2 arcade" on the ps1 and can easily find the rom for adventure island.

both are exceptional games.

Coming to think about it, this is a game developed by Taito I liked:

Amaze me, tell me what game it is.

Or maybe "Quatro DF"?

You're all hopeless.

Calling themselve gamers.
Tssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

If not found by the end of the week I gonna tell you.

**TRIVIA:
It was an interesting game regarding the movement, you could use most of the numpad keys to move/stab with your sword or swirl the axe.
Stabbing was possible left-right but also up-down and in an angle.
You could still fight-kill whilst being kneeled down.

Hmmmm, nevermind, just some random thoughts.

Hint: There are two a's in the title.

Anyway, the reason why I asked you whether you've ever played one of those Taito games, is that I found some built-in cheats for those games. I could never get passed level 2 of Operation Wolf, but with these cheats I've finally finished it, after all those years.

I haven't found cheats for this game with two a's in its title.

Lemme guess,is it Connan's Age's ? Shit-Eating Grin

As expected Frenkel knows the answer.
I doubt there are cheats for this one.

The others: nope.
