Gameplay from The Legend Of Kage playing on the Amstrad CPC 6128 vintage home computer. Retro Gaming.

Big thanks to Jake, DemonOfGaming for sending this to me.

This is not a review, walkthrough, playthrough, or demonstration of my playing ability.
It's more a case of me speaking my thoughts while playing the games, many for the first time, and most for the first time in a very long time... so it's all a little spontaneous and random.
Predictably, as I never practice before recording, I usually play very badly.

Given that I am playing many of these games for the first time, and everything I say is completely off the cuff, you probably shouldn't take what I say overly seriously. The opinions that I express are my feelings at the time, but it's entirely possible that they would be different if I were to take the time to get to grips with the game.
However, given that these videos are intended to show that "first time experience", I believe they have some validity or merit.
If you'd like to know more about why I make my videos the way that I do, it's all explained in this video

The NES version is far superior. Also I was always told it was pronounced kah-gay but maybe I was told wrong.

[SteveBenway]

@awitcheskid You were told right. I was pronouncing it completely wrong here :)

Just watched music apricitation again. You're a bloody genius.

[SteveBenway]

@FuyuAkiWorld You're too kind :)

Finally a game on the Amstrad were the colour choices are a little better, but the gameplay physics are terrible!

I am sure it should be possible to have much better games on these systems, they are perfectly capable. I think they may have suffered from trying to do things in house too much, and not letting the game studios produce titles - more margin that way (Sugar anyone :)).

[SteveBenway]

@electricadventures For all that it looks just plain wrong, it's actually a lot of fun to play, in an odd kind of way :)

This game is totally insane but I do enjoy it.

I think you have to kill a certain amount of ninja's per area to progress, 10 or 20 from fuzzy memories. Crappy game really, didn't even warrant a re-release on the Hit Squad budget label unlike all the other Imagine (Ocean) games.

This game just needed tighter game design.. and it would be great. .. I think the graphics and sound are impressive - and the way you can jump around throwing ninja stars from all directions is cool.

hahah, making a handbag out of the croc and selling it lol, nice. Yeah, these Legend of Kage games are very wild. Interesting enough but `Kage` in Japanese pronunciation is `Ka Gay` and it means `Shadow`. Just thought Id share that with you for fun :) You were flying around everywhere for sure!

You gave this game a lot more time than I ever did. I played it for like 5 minutes on NES emulator and deleted it because I just couldn't get into it!! red Riding Hood Ninja fury! LOL!
