Doshin the Giant, GameCube
Doshin the Giant is one of those games where you ask yourself: “What am I playing? Am I a God? Or am I a turd? And is there any reason why I can’t be both of those things at the same time?! And is that my belly button or my cock? I hope it’s the former…”
It’s also a game where you can lose yourself in the tropical paradise that is the island you live on, because the sound effects, lighting and music are soothing and dreamlike…

Conan, Commodore 64
Datasoft‘s 1984 release, Conan, is a curious game. It doesn’t seem to be directly related to either of the two Conan films released in the early ’80s (although it does use artwork from the sequel, Conan the Destroyer), so my guess is that it was a quick cash-in on the popularity of Arnold Schwarzenegger by the developers.
The game was originally written for the Apple II by Eric Robinson and Eric Parker, and the Commodore 64 version was created by Ron J. Fortier and John Butrovich.
