Well done to tr33t0ps for guessing yesterday’s Remember This. I thought I had you all stumped for a while.
The game was The Bard’s Tale III: Thief of Fate. Well done team.
Good luck with today’s effort.

Mystic quest
Chrono Trigger
Super Mario Kart
Final fantasy 4

This looks very familiar. I was thinking a tile based TBS, but none of the ones I have fit.
My mental image of the ocean thanks to a lifetime of playing video games?
Cobra Triangle
Wonderboy 3: Dragon’s Trap on mastersystem! OR if its the other version it’s Dragon’s curse on Turbografx. I grew up on this game 😛
after burner
Wild arms?
Why is my comment still being moderated but I can see other peoples new comments appearing?
A link to the past?
Shining Force? I’m guessing Shining Force 2. That was my first RPG experience 🙂 absolutely loved it.
Although the water looks a touch more modern now that I’ve said that.
Biker Mice from Mars
nailed it.
Final Fantasy V (five)!! My only 16bit FF. One day FF6, one day…
this is hurting my brain… i know what it is…. i KNOW that pattern…. i just cant word it… with my thinking blob in head thing…
Dragon quest 2 i think
Lunar : Eternal Blue
Phantasy Star
My first guess was a top down scrolling shooter, but I definitely think it’s a 16 bit J RPG. For the life of me I don’t know which one.
Shining Force 2 is my guess. @masterbuddha beat me to it but.
It reminds me of it but I’m not 100%. I’m picturing either the Kraken fight or the world map water.
It’s world map water, but not all world map water. I think it’s one specific body of water in that game.
I thought it was Dragon Quest V, but the water wasn’t quite that detailed.
Ive seen this before. First time ive ever actually recognised something….yet I dont know what it is. Makes me so angry.
This one is tugging on the “I know that” mental strings… Uurrrggghhh.
Echo the Dolphin 2
E.V.O
Super mario world
1943 the battle of Midway.
Illusion of Time
Micro Machines?
Curse you
I know that water, I know that it’s animated with parallaxing, I played the hell out of this game!
I have no idea what it is!
I have a feeling that it may be one of the Gameboy Advance era Pokemon games but I’m probably wrong…
your probably right about being wrong
Spellcaster perhaps?
Yep, It’s Wonder Boy 3. It’s the underwater level
Looks like it.

It’s the water in Wonder Boy III: The Dragon’s Trap, from the Sega Master System II.
Simcity!
Wonderboy 3: The Dragons Trap!
Recognize that anywhere!
