Welcome back my weebs and otakus, it's Otakunofuji with another game video. Today we're talking about Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore, an indie spiritual successor to the infamously terrible Phillips CD-I Zelda games Nintendo wishes we'd all forget about. Arzette captures the visual style of those old games absolutely perfectly, but pairs the distinct presentation with gameplay that's actually good and worth playing in its own right. A lot of indie throwbacks to old bad games intentionally make their game bad as an homage, but Arzette developers Seedy Eye Software (get it) instead dared to ask "What would the Zelda CD-I games be like if they were actually good?". The result is pretty amazing.
