Hudson Soft‘s classic Super Bomberman was originally released for the Super Nintendo in 1993.
As an example of a frantic maze/puzzle game: there is absolutely nothing better in its class – other than its four sequels! 🙂

The Lost Vikings, Super Nintendo
The Lost Vikings is a platform/puzzle game developed by Silicon & Synapse (now Blizzard Entertainment), and was originally released for the Super Nintendo by Interplay in 1993.
E.V.O.: Search for Eden, Super Nintendo
E.V.O.: Search for Eden was a wonderfully original Role-Playing Game back in 1992, when it was first released, and is still quite original now, nearly three decades later.
Sim Ant, Super Nintendo
I’ve played a number of different versions of Sim Ant and would have to say that the Super Nintendo version is probably my favourite.
Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Super Nintendo
This brilliant single and multi-player overhead shooter by LucasArts is a parody of every single horror and sci-fi film you’ve ever seen.

Alone In The Dark 2, PC
Alone In The Dark 2 is a suitably frantic, scary and chilling sequel to 1992’s Alone In The Dark.
Part two came out just over a year after the first game, in 1993, and French developer Infogrames made it bigger and more challenging than the first game.
ActRaiser, Super Nintendo
Developed by Quintet for Enix in 1990, ActRaiser is a hybrid side-scrolling hack and slash platform game, with an overhead ‘God game’ type section.
Rock n’ Roll Racing, Super Nintendo
Rock n’ Roll Racing is a brilliant isometric, combat-based racing game by Silicon & Synapse – now Blizzard Entertainment – and was first released for the Super Nintendo way back in 1993.
Star Fox, Super Nintendo
I’m going to use the Japanese and North American name for this game – Star Fox – rather than the European name (Star Wing, which was chosen because the name “Star Fox” was apparently too similar to a German company called “StarVox”!).
The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, Game Boy
The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening (1993) is like a mini version of the Super Nintendo classic A Link To The Past (1991) – both games share more than just the same DNA. At times Link’s Awakening feels like A Link To The Past without colour. Which is a huge compliment because A Link To The Past is one of the best games ever made. This, too, is among the best Game Boy games of all time.
