Puzzle Games please!
« on: November 15, 2012, 03:26:48 PM »
Hello everyone :) Happy to be here. Im kind of new to the Tg16 world so I will have many questions to ask you knowledgeable people in the next few weeks. I never played the console as a little girl nor had i ever heard about it up until 3 years ago. Once i had a first hand look at the game play I was so amazed to see how awesome the graphics and vivid colors were compared to its direct competition the Nintendo Nes, which I owned as a kid but now looking back I wish I had a Tg16 instead. Im not knocking on the Nes, there are some really epic games for that console, but there is just no comparison visually, and the audio kicks ass. My favorite game for the Tg16 is Devils Crush so far, but I'm really looking into finding some good puzzle games to add to my Turbo Library. So this is my first question, which are the best puzzle games for this system?

Welcome to the board always nice to see new people finding out how great the turbografx/pc engine is! As far as puzzle games go my favorites are: splash lake (cd game), chew man fu (hu card), and klax (hu card)

I'm not big on puzzler's in general, but off the top o' my head. 

Splash Lake
Puyo Puyo
Puyo Puyo Tsu
Panic Bomber
Klax
Chew Man Fu

I'll have to think of some more.  There's also Tongueman's Logic, but it's a rom only, no card or cd for it, astleast not yet.

NICE :D

and welcome to the asylum of OBEY.

are you also able to play PCE games or only TG16 stuff? because that would enable a lot more of great puzzle stuff to you. :)

also we must tell you, that the PCE was more in direct competition with the MD (genesis) and SFC (SNES) rather than the puny NES or master system, even it came out much before the two. and believe it or not, it has proven itself to be superior in many territories as well.

you will find it out by yourself fast enough :)

Welcome!

I'm not familiar with the US side of things as I collect for the PC Engine so there may or may not be US equivalents of these games, titles will probably differ too, but here's a small list of some puzzle games to try:

Tricky
Klax
Panic Bomber
Lemmings
Battle Lode Runner
Lode Runner - Lost Labyrinth
Blodia
Columns
Be Ball
Builderland
Sokoban World
Circus Lido
Skweek
Spin Pair
Puzznic
Minesweeper
Splash Lake
Puyo Puyo CD
Zipang
Star Mobile
The TV Show
Color Wars
Puzzle Boy

+1 for Splash Lake, though it's more a reflex puzzler than a straight puzzler. Another +1 for Star Mobile. Both are CD games though.

Do you have a CD player or just a TG16? Can you play imports?

If you just have a TG16, go for Boxy Boy (1 meg power!) and Chew Man Fu. You can't beat little people pushing things around. If you need a real challenge, Tricky Kick is hard as nails. If you want to go back to 1983, try Time Ball.

I don't know if it qualifies as a pure puzzler but Cratermaze is a fun game with some puzzle elements.

There are some great modders here that can help you get your TG16 playing PCE games. I most definitely recommend doing this.

Everyone else has pretty much covered the games.

I'll say +1 to BOXY BOY and TRICKY KICK.  conquer them you must.   
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

thanks for all the welcomes and info guys. I need to start looking for as many of these games as I can find. Time to do some early Christmas shopping for myself. The Obey chip is already ordered and on the way so I can play PCE games soon  :dance:.
