Master of the Monster Lair
GAE2008
Master of the Monster Lair is a dungeon crawling RPG with a different twist, whereas in previous dungeon crawlers the objective is to find the dungeons and monsters to clear them, the player creates the dungeon (or a monster lair in this case) in order to attract the monster and trap it to destroy it. There are 23 different rooms to customize for the player's Monster Lair. The story takes place in a small town called South Arc where the nearby forests are harboring monsters who regularly invade the town and scare of the citizens. This is where the player takes control of an orphan called Owen who is searching for his first job where he encounters a magical talking shovel. After realizing his destiny, he decides to start digging a lair and destroy the monster infestation.
Oookuki
Global A Entertainment2008
The chronicles of the Oooku, the women's quarters of Edo Castle, is remembered infamously in Japan as a classic kusoge, slang for a very bad video game. The story revolves around discourse between some of the women in the Oooku over the current shogun, which eventually leads to the player needing to endlessly search around a huge amount of empty rooms and withstand annoying load times as you interview people for their testimonies. There's spelling errors throughout the entire game, as well as typographical errors that have the Edo era characters speaking very modern at unexpected times. The graphics were criticized as especially ugly in 2008 when the PS3 was gaining popularity, and the narrative is hard to follow as the text moves automatically with no text log. Everything is timed, and knowing what to do next is very difficult without a guide. After gathering all your information throughout the year, you have a trial, which can result in different endings.
