9th Dawn is an old school tile base fantasy role playing game. It harkens back to the days of Ultima 4 or 5, or similar tile based games of the mid to late 1980s. The game took quite a long time to finish so there is a lot to see and explore in 9th Dawn. 9th Dawn II is in the works and I for one look forward to that.

The "blob" is capable of a number of transformations in order to traverse the game's puzzles, such as a parachute to avoid damage from falls.A Boy and His Blob is a 2D puzzle platformer. The main characters progress through a variety of levels with various obstacles to get to the end of the level and move on to the next. The protagonist feeds the blob jelly beans in order to transform it into one of fifteen different objects that can be used to solve puzzles and defeat enemies. Unlike the NES game in which only the jellybean flavor was displayed, the Wii version uses a more intuitive menu that shows each transformation.

A Boy and His Blob: Trouble on Blobolonia is a side-scrolling platformer in which the character and his friend Blob (full name Blobert) travel together on Earth and on Blobert's home planet Blobolonia in a quest to defeat an evil emperor. Blobert can change into several different items when he is fed jelly beans. A licorice jelly bean, for instance, will change Blobert into a ladder, while a honey jelly bean will turn him into a hummingbird. Most of these transformations can be remembered mnemonically due to a correlation between the flavor of the jelly bean and the item that results. Whistling at Blobert causes him to change back, often with a musical accompaniment similar to the main theme.

A Bug's Life is a platform game with different goals in each of 15 levels. Most of the goals deal with getting the main character, Flik, to do events that match the storyline of the movie. When the player finishes a level, that player can proceed to the next level. Each new level starts with a new short animation from the movie. If the player collects all of the bonus items in a level, that player gets a bonus movie. Bonus items include 50 pieces of grain, four letters that spell F-L-I-K (like the Tarzan N64 game) and permanently finishing off each enemy bug. To guide the player through the levels there are little floating telescopes that will show the player areas where he is supposed to go. Throughout each level are a variety of types of seeds. Some seeds are partially buried in the ground. These seeds can be transformed by Flik into a specific kind of plant that can help him solve problems within the levels. Flik can increase the number of plants he can grow by collecting colored tokens scattered throughout the levels, with a token's color determining what type of plant can be grown with it. Some levels also included Flik’s harvesting invention (hidden somewhere in the level) which can be used to collect grain and kill off enemy bugs.

A Game of Thrones: Genesis is a real-time strategy game and acts as a prequel to the novel series A Song of Fire and Ice. During the campaign the player lives through the years -740 to 299. The player does not build up the settlement, but begins with one - territorial gain is achieved by politics. With the help of ambassadors the player and the AI try to achieve contracts with other cities and rulers. Possible actions include weddings, spying, assassins or secret contract - possibly while another house has an official contract with the partner. However, every action influences the piece meter - when it runs out, war begins. Then the game becomes a traditional real-time strategy game in which units with different advantages and disadvantages fight against each other.
