got a local library/bookstore that has a "take our free shit" window. They had 4 ds games there today, mint condition, like spotless stuff. 99% durability on those babys.

Orcs and Elves was a fun romp. It was hilarious when you tried to rip the dragon off instead of properly haggling and she just straight up fucking burns you

In terms of Orcs and Elves? Unique.

There was fighting fantasy, Etrian Odyssey, The Dark Spire and ...deep labyrinth (if you want to get REALLY niche)

Edit: Maze of fate. Another niche as hell one

Ill check em out, thanks

But let me elaborate what I meant still

The game never took itself too seriously (drunken dwarfs ghosts are a good example)

The dragon bartering was super fun

Combat was simple but fun(im a smootbrain now, I like simpler stuff)
