Head Over Heels

Two distinct characters, Mr. Head and Mr. Heels are played in this arcade adventure game. Both separated at the shoulders, but can join together to boost their abilities. These abilities become complementary when the player combines them together after completing roughly a sixth of the game.

Compared to its predecessors, the game offers unique and revolutionary gameplay, complex puzzles, and more than 300 rooms to explore.

Impossamole

Impossamole features the cape-clad superhero Monty Mole who is recruited by aliens to retrieve their sacred scrolls. The first four levels may be played in any order, the player progresses horizontally as well as climbing up ladders to complete the levels.

Switchblade

Switchblade is a side-scrolling action-platform game with run and gun elements where players assume the role of Hiro on his quest through a subterranean labyrinth in Undercity.

Fighting against enemies and avoiding hazards, the aim of the game is to reunite 16 scattered fragments of the sacred Fireblade sword and use it against Havok, an evil entity who broke free from his imprisonment.
