Future Wars is an early adventure from Delphine my friend and I used to play together back on the Amiga. Maybe not the best game but the pixelhunting was real fun.
this is the only game that i never had experienced it. also, in any platforms i visited, it never got re-released. especially since that game was done by the same team who did heart of darkness.

This is a top 10 all time game for me. The story is great top 3 all time the gameplay is actually diversified and it's close to a perfect game for me. I played it on Amiga500 and it was the first game where the story as a main focus was enganging by itself. The first time i realized how good and emersive a game can even be. I always hoped this game would be rereleased or even remade you could make an great adventure with this story combining many different gamplay styles (shooter, puzzle, jump and run, point and click).

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker SagaLego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is a third-person action-adventure with an open world hub. Unlike previous Lego games in which players had to advance through the story in a linear order, players can now choose to start the game from any of the main Skywalker Saga episodes and complete them in any order they wish. Each episode has their own hub filled with planets featured prominently in each respective film that can be visited and explored. Each episode will have five story missions each, a total of 45 levels. Combat has also been revamped, such as lightsaber fights now involving a variety of combos with light attacks, heavy attacks, and Force moves, and blaster characters having an over-the-shoulder camera angle featured in many third-person shooter games. Random encounters will also happen in the game's hub. For example, an Imperial Star Destroyer will suddenly jump out of hyperspace and send a fleet of TIE Fighters after the player. Players can choose to engage in dogfights with them or continue onward to progress the story. The game will have more than 200 playable characters, though TT Games has said that number will change.
