Doneky Kong '94 for the GameBoy! One of the best games of all time.

It's a puzzle-platformer in which you have to get the key to the door. Simple, but a lot of fun, and a still a great game today.

FFVI is a big one. Breath of Fire 2, Mega Man X2 and Castlevania Rondo of Blood are three that I like but are less well known.

Rise of the Robots is an infamous game that turns 25 this year.

My favourite is DKC.

1994 was another great year of Point'n'Click Adventures.

Sierra released the beautiful Collector's Editions of King's Quest, Space Quest and Leisure Suit Larry. Also King's Quest VII for the Win95-launch, Gabriel Knight, The Adventures of Willy Beamish and Coktel Vision's strange "The Bizarre Adventures of Woodruff and the Schnibble of Azimuth".

Lucas Arts just released Sam and Max Hit the Road & Day of the Tentacle and was working on Full Throttle and The Dig. (They also released the awesome action games Star Wars TIE Fighter + Rebel Assault + Dark Forces in this period).

Legend Entertainment released Companions of Xanth, Death Gate and Superhero League of Hoboken.

Westwood Studios released two Legend of Kyrandia games: The Hand of Fate and Malcolm's Revenge.

Revolution Software released the awesome Beneth a Steel Sky.

New World Computing released the furry "Inherit the Earth: Quest for the Orb".

Happy 25th Birthday, Super Metroid! I think a nice 100% run is in order to mark the occasion. I sure wish I could do this on my Switch, but the SNES Classic will have to do.
