"Cadillacs and Dinosaurs" by Capcom is a primal blend of brute force, prehistoric beasts, and 90s comic book flair. Based on the comic series Xenozoic Tales, the game serves up a post-apocalyptic cocktail of Mad Max, Jurassic Park, and Final Fight.
Snow Bros., developed by Toaplan, brought its own frosty twist to the action-puzzler genre: enemies are rolled into giant snowballs and chaotically launched through the level. The result? Fast-paced, addictive gameplay with a high "just one more round!" factor.
Q*bert, the cult arcade hit from 1982, is one of the most iconic games of the golden age of arcades. Developed by Gottlieb, the game stands out with its quirky controls, unique look, and distinctive sense of humor.
Released in 1993 by Konami, Mystic Warriors is a side-scrolling action game that follows in the footsteps of Sunset Riders—but with a "cool" '90s ninja setting. The game offers fast-paced run 'n' gun action with a unique visual style and is a co-op experience for up to four players.
With its charming characters and original level designs, the game is a unique platformer that remains beloved to this day.
The streets of Metro City are overrun with criminals. Former wrestler and mayor Mike Haggar is determined to take action, much to the dismay of the Mad Gear Gang, who retaliate by kidnapping his daughter.
Capcom's Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo is one of the most unusual arcade gems of the '90s. Despite its name, it is not a traditional Street Fighter clone but rather a colorful puzzle game with a beat-'em-up flair.
Blazing Chrome is a relentless run-and-gun game inspired by classics like Contra and Metal Slug. With crisp pixel art, intense action, and a high-energy soundtrack, the game feels like a lost arcade gem from the '90s.
