There’s a ton for the SNES and NES. Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy 4, 5, & 6, Breath of Fire 1 & 2, and Secret of Mana for the SNES alone. That’s not even counting the NES, which had Dragon Quest 1-4, Final Fantasy. Then there’s all the translated stuff. Check em out. What I listed is probably enough to keep someone busy for a year. Emulation’s not hard at all to set up these days.

Ah, my bad! I saw itch.io and presumed video game! Didn’t see the physical tag. I played a handfull way, waaaay back that were DnD offshoots. We’re talking late 80s early 90s. Got them from my brother’s collection. They can be good if you want to learn DnD stuff on your own, or if you don’t have a group or a DM to play with. None of my friends were into DnD at the time, but I loved the idea. Haven’t thought about them in years. It’s definitely gonna depend a lot on who made the campaign. Also how into it you get, obviously. Even the official stuff I played had some real campy stinkers.
