Retro games set in the Middle East? Anonymous Sat Mar 28 08:20:24 2020 No.6294536 [Reply] [Original]

Anything goes as long as it's not overly long (no 50-hours long RPGs please) and not a strategy, though some kind of action adventure or point and click game would be preferred.

tomb raider 'greece' section seemms to be actually set in turkey

>The location of Phrygia, which was the kingdom of the mythic King Midas is actually based in inland Turkey. This could suggest then, that all the Greek levels are not actually based in Greece, but in Turkey - but that the structures were built by Asiatic Greeks who colonised parts of Turkey themselves.

Why only Middle Eastern themed and not made in the middle east too?

Babylonian Twins
>Babylonian Twins was originally developed for the revolutionary Commodore Amiga computer in Baghdad under the difficult economic sanctions period between 1993 and 1994. However, the game was never published due the economic sanctions and the demise of Commodore. The game is considered by many to be the first commercial quality game developed in Iraq.

>The game author, producer and programmer, Rabah Shihab, was at that time a student at the computer engineering department at Baghdad University. He developed the game with the help of his friends Murtadha Salman, a talented artist who was a student at the Architecture department at the same university, and Mahir AlSalman, a talented musician and a medical student at that time.

>The game was developed on one Amiga 500 computer with only 500KB of memory and no hard drive. The game was written entirely in MC68000 assembly language with direct programming of the Amiga custom chips. A proprietary map editor was developed to design the game levels. The team used authentic history books to derive the graphics of the game and the soundtracks were all original.

F15 Strike Eagle

Desert Commander for NES and Conflict: Middle East Political Simulator for Amiga, but they're strategy games so you probably won't like them

Also, not retro, but Ever Oasis for 3DS and a bunch of FPS games and some Assassin's Creed games
