Now parent company Snap is enabling creators to use self-provided machine learning models in Lenses, and hoping the initiative will inspire partnerships between ML developers and creatives. Not as playable as Revenge of the Gator, but still fun.Over the past few years, SnapchatвЂ™s growing collection of Lenses have been some of the best examples of smartphone-powered augmented reality, enabling users to effortlessly add facial modifications, environmental effects, and location-specific filtersВ to their photos. Not really.Дefinitely worth it: Rollerball, which by pure coincidence is the second HAL Labs-developed video pinball game in this pile. This is the touching tale of a high school student who has to go fight monsters and ends up hooking up with a fairy.ДЄpparently the box art, which looks absolutely nothing like the gawky main character in the actual game, was based on the arcade version. The art and title sold me on the game, but unbeknownst to me IвЂ™d already played it before: The Lord of King is Astyanax, that wonderfully crappy side-scrolling platform game from Jaleco. Speaking of Christians: If Jesus is King of Kings, and also Lord of Lords, then who is the Lord of King? Apparently itвЂ™s Fabio. The Wikipedia entry lists a lot of the other story elements (you fight Christians!) that were scrubbed clean from the U.S. (The storeвЂ™s first shop sells cocaine, hashish, etc.) Cocaine gives you 10 HP. I sure am glad I stopped to read the text, because this is fantastic: You play as a prince of a country in the old Islamic caliphate, and you heal yourself in battle by using drugs. DidnвЂ™t give me my 50 centsвЂ™ worth.Д®xile II is another in the side-scrolling RPG subgenre.

Disorienting! And I couldnвЂ™t figure out how to actually fight anything. Worth 50 cents!Д«randish is a top-down, dungeon-crawling RPG by Falcom with a bizarre graphic twist Each time you rotate the direction that your character is facing, the entire game world snaps 90 degrees so you are always facing the top of the screen. This is followed by an actual Gradius -style side-scrolling shooter section. ThereвЂ™s an auto-scrolling platform section in which you run and jump and take out snails and cobras with a variety of projectile weapons. ItвЂ™s neither a straightforward platform game nor a nonlinear adventure. Wonder Boy III: Monster Lair, which like most of its brethren is available on Virtual Console, is quite different from the games that came before and after. The gameвЂ™s menu features a color-bar test-pattern option, in case you вЂ¦ need to check your TVвЂ™s color levels. You have to peck at the platforms to get them to collapse, drowning your enemies, while trying not to kill yourself.

Splash Lake is a clever puzzle game - youвЂ™re a bird-type thing, a pelican or something, on a series of small platforms out on the ocean. As such, they didnвЂ™t even fetch 100 yen each - more like 50 yen.

For example, apparently some folks take all the instruction manuals out of their games and, I donвЂ™t know, burn them? These games for the PC Engine CD-ROM system (known as TurboGrafx in the United States) were all in their original jewel cases, but with no manuals. Some people have weird collecting habits.

Less so the rest of the game, an overhead-action RPG in the Secret of Mana style but with flaky combat mechanics and endless rooms full of nothing. IsnвЂ™t Capcom a videogame maker of some renown? How did they mess this one up? I will say this: The graphics, drawn in a style that looks like a colored pencil sketch, are impressive.

We saw the movie Willow in the theater when I was a kid. Willow did work, although I kind of wish it didnвЂ™t. release: This one was just beyond the pale. To kill them, I had to hit blocks with my head, creating weapons that shot projectiles when I touched them. So IвЂ™m in this dungeon, right? And there are these monsters. I donвЂ™t know what I was supposed to get out of AiginaвЂ™s Prediction, unless the prediction was that I was about to play a bad game. ThatвЂ™s the history lesson I got from the Famicom version of classic Origin Systems role-playing game Times of Lore. In the ancient times of lore, before people had fully developed all their various modern-day body parts, they kind of shuffled around funnily. ItвЂ™s pretty sweet, and also hot, especially for 100 yen. Created by HAL Laboratory - probably under the direction of current Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, although I canвЂ™t find any credits anywhere - itвЂ™s a classic of the genre, an addictive pinball game crawling with alligators. I had a lot more fun with the next game, an excellent pinball title released stateside as Revenge of the Gator.
