Overview
Description

Knights of Xentar, originally released as Dragon Knight III in 1991, is an eroge role‑playing game that blends classic turn‑based combat with visual‑novel storytelling. Set in a fantasy world, players control the hero Desmond (originally Takeru) as he travels across the land, battles monsters, and encounters a cast of beautiful women while uncovering his true identity. The game features a full world map, party management, and multiple romance routes, all presented with anime‑style artwork and a humorous tone. Originally for Japanese PCs like the NEC PC‑9801, it was later ported to the Sharp X68000 and PC Engine CD, and remains a cult classic among retro RPG fans.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a story-driven open-world RPG in which you play Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter searching for his adopted daughter. It is celebrated for its mature writing, meaningful side quests, and a massive, hand-crafted world.
