this game influenced nothing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvVFnGYuv_M But gaddamn it's as addicting as the music is horrible (one track is the absolute horror, and it happens to be the main track, the rest is rather very good) Hardest game in the world and again, the music ... But give it a try, use the wlakthrough eventually, only when you need... https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/nes/587351-the-immortal/faqs/2785

So influential I haven't even heard of three of them.

It's been a shitty decade for gaming.
