Escape from Horror land was my favorite game as a kid. And Skull Monkeys is amazing.
Super metroid is the best game ever made!!!
Maniac Mansion / Day of the Tentacles… I'm kinda shocked that these didn't get on the list or not even to honorable mentions.
Mighty good selection there, WM. I am reminded of a few Nintendo games that were truly cutting edge for their time. Would've been nice to see them graduate to bigger and better games today.
Star Tropic – Crystalis – Golgo 13 – Hydlide – Rolling Thunder – Swords & Serpents
Just to name a few.
How is broken sword forgotten? They have just had a new instalment and granted it did take a while. Even in this video you used original and remastered…. I agree with the rest of the list but broken sword has def not been forgotten.
these games look like crap
Willy Beamish!
And I thought Chameleon Twist 1 & 2 were underrated.
Hey WatchMojo, I noticed that at 3:33, 4:14 & 4:26, Footage From This Video Was Also Seen In Your "Top 10 Ways To Make A Great Web Video" Video, Which Strangely Enough That Video Was Published On October 5, 2015, While This One That I'm Watching Right Now Was Published On October 23, 2015, I Wonder How You Guys Managed To Show Footage Of You Making That Particular Video Before It Was Even Published?

You are wrong about Skullmonkeys! I know straight from the mouth of Doug, Ed, and Mike (the 3 main guys responsible for the Neverhood) said they wanted to go back and do another platformer like Earthworm Jim. The Neverhood (despite some internet false claims) was a success. Spielberg and Dreamworks, however, wanted another Neverhood adventure game. They compromised and used the Neverhood characters and setting and claymation in the 2-D platformer they were already designing.
What about medievil???? Two amazing games
WatchMojo should be more specific on the target generation of the said Forgotten adventure games or Forgotten video game heroes.
Uninvited for NES
Klo-oa needs love.
Glad Klonoa isn't here.
While i never played it before, Dark Seed also looks promising. From the same guys who developed I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream; Cyberdreams. OwO
I wouldn't call Neverhood forgotten. In fact, in Poland Neverhood is still really famous.
Koudelka
you forgot some
tak and the power of juju…..WE WANT A PORT TO PS4!
Vexx
Maniac Mansion… Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis… KINGS QUEST!!!!
Harvest moon?
I LOVE Loom!!!
Diskworld for PS was a good one
I love The Dig and Phantasmagoria. I played both as a kid
Lunar silver star story would be a good one
Ahhh Deja Vu. I played both of those games on GBC back in the day. They were both so good but so difficult.
Sanitarium is amaaaazing!
Sweet
Rise Of The Dragon

Darkseed and Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders
