Dokuron no Yakata

This game is an action title based on an award-winning entry from Enix's 1983 Game Hobby Program Contest. Players control the protagonist, "Nyoki-Nyoki-kun," as he navigates a trap-filled mansion, using crosses to defeat monsters and clear each stage. The game features 3D exploration elements, such as using ropes to move between floors, and strategic mechanics like collecting additional crosses in the attic, which captivated 8-bit PC users at the time. Today, it stands as a rare and historic piece that highlights the early brilliance of amateur creators and the experimental spirit of software publishers.

After becoming trapped inside a mysterious building, the protagonist "Nyoki-Nyoki-kun" must explore the mansion to find a way out. The halls are crawling with monsters like "Dokuron," "Piyo-Piyo," and "Gabugabu," and players must be careful to avoid being captured. The goal is to collect hidden crosses throughout the mansion and use them to defeat all the enemies on each level to progress.
