1984 PC-6001mkII RPG Lizard gets ported to EGG Console PC for free in Japan
D4 Enterprise has released a port of Xtalsoft's 1984 PC-6001mkII RPG Lizard for Windows 10 and 11 PCs for free on their EGG Console PC platform. The free offer comes with a caveat, though: Those who want access to the free port must first have an active account on the Japanese platform.
This game tasks the player to find the Book of Truth to dispel a curse from a princess. They will start the game by first choosing from among the 3 available classes: Warrior, Thief, or Merchant. They will then explore ten 3D dungeon floors of a tower with random battle encounters. When the player fights an enemy, they can also opt to talk with them first to obtain information, but this will also come with a risk that the enemy may disregard dialogues and immediately attack the player.
You can find the brief gameplay trailer and screenshots for Lizard right below. It is currently unknown whether D4 Enterprise has any plans to bring this Japanese game port to Nintendo Switch worldwide, as they have done with titles like Mirai and Nihon Falcom's Ys series.
An RPG released by Xtal Soft in 1984.
