Row #	Title	Image	Description

2	Tails Adventure		Tails Adventure is a 2D platformer, but unlike most of the previous Sonic Hedgehog games, you cannot kill enemies by jumping on them. It also differs from most Sonic the Hedgehog games of the time, in that previous areas can be revisited (with new routes becoming accessible after particular weapons/items are obtained from later levels).

4	Sonic Drift		A kart racing game featuring Sonic and other characters from the Sonic the Hedgehog games. It was released only in Japan.

12	Super Columns		The Columns series, is a series of puzzle games similar to Tetris. Vertical columns (typically made up of three coloured gems) fall from above. The player can change the order of the columns while they drop (and shift the column left and right). Getting a sequence (horizontal, vertical or diagonal) of three or more gems of the same colour makes them disappear (and the player gains points).
13	Ax Battler: A Legend of Golden Axe		A Golden Axe game that rather than being a side-scrolling fighting arcade game, is an action-adventure game (that some would regard as being an action RPG).
14	Chicago Syndicate		Chicago Syndicate is a spinoff of Eternal Champions (a 2D fighting game on the Sega Mega Drive / Genesis, which had fighters from a variety of time periods), featuring the 1920s American character Larcen Tyler. The game is an unusual 2D platformer mixed with elements of the 2D fighting and real-time strategy (RTS) genres. The player controls Larcen, and he has been given one year to wipe out the six gangs of Chicago. Each gang has its own set of gameplay statistics (such as the number of thugs, munitions, morale etc) that can change over time (depending on the player's decisions and how the gangs attack each other). There are six levels (one for each gang), and the objective of that level is to beat up all of the thugs. During a level there may be some weapons and items to pick up. Between levels, Larcen is at his place, and while there he can look up the statistics for each gang, get timely information from an informant, heal himself etc. There are a limited number of days to wipe out the six gangs. Those days are used up when Larcen perform actions at his place, and they are also used up during the level. The action during the levels is an unusual mixture of a 2D platformer and 2D fighting game, in that it is a platformer with multiple enemies, but the controls are like a 2D fighting game (Larcen can step backwards and walk forwards, but he can never turn around to face left).
15	Devilish		A swords-and-sorcery themed Breakout style game.
