As an early zoomer, I didn't play this growing up; but I've been a FromSoft fan since I played Elden Ring (like how Breath of the Wild made me a LoZ fan), & so when I randomly heard about King's Field in a Gameranx video, I was intrigued enough to dig into it; which's how I found out it was FromSofts very 1st IP, & shortly afterwards, about the spinoff series, Shadow Tower, & that they're the IPs that pioneered everything the Souls games & Elden Ring're famous for now, & where many iconic Fromverse elements, like Seath the Scaleless & the Moonlight Greatsword, made their debut. So naturally, when I started emulating retro games on my Steam Deck (because getting the og hardware's prohibitively expensive now), I had to download both the King's Field & Shadow Tower IPs to play; & while they're, as FromSoft games're famous for being, brutally difficult, I've been enjoying them, & I immediately noticed their control scheme was what'd be standard keyboard & mouse controls mapped to a controller, as demonstrated by modern games that, while officially labeled "Soulsborne", or a similar term, actually, whether the developer realized it or not, take more after King's Field &/or Shadow Tower gameplay wise due to being played from a 1st person perspective (surprising the difference it makes); which's why I came up with a new term for such games I even made into a Steam tag; "King's-heir". Games like Monomyth, Dread Delusion, & the upcoming games Dreamspring & Labryinth of the Demon King. So, as you may've guessed, I wanna see both the King's Field & Shadow Tower games made playable on PC for both longtime FromSoft fans, & simply curious newcomers, to enjoy, & discover where many iconic FromSoft elements came from, & where the legendary studio got their start; & if Nightdive Studios doesn't remaster/remake them, I wanna see them added to the GOG preservation program (if you see this reposted on the other King's Field/Shadow Tower games, the story's the same there as it is here).

Prince of PersiaThe game is set in ancient Persia. While the sultan is fighting a war in a foreign land, his vizier Jaffar, a wizard, seizes power. Jaffar's only obstacle to the throne is the Sultan's daughter (although the game never specifically mentions how). Jaffar locks her in a tower and orders her, under threat of execution, to become his wife. The game's nameless protagonist, whom the Princess loves, is thrown into the palace dungeons. The player must lead the protagonist out of the dungeons and to the palace tower, defeating Jaffar and freeing the Princess in under 60 minutes. In addition to guards, various traps and dungeons, the protagonist is further hindered by his own doppelgänger, an apparition of his own self that is conjured out of a magic mirror.Action
