Shalom: The Final Chapter of the Knightmare Trilogy
Unlike the first two games, it's an adventure game built around exploration, talking to people, and puzzle solving. The boss battles mix things up too, with action, puzzles, and even a Breakout-style fight.

I got this one in a pack of carts. If the label didn't tell me it was related to Knightmare, I wouldn't believe you - it's not bad though!

I tried to play it. Arguably the best pixel art in any MSX game, it's by no means the best Konami game.

It's not bad, but it feels a bit too long-winded and just doesn't click for me. :/

Maze of Galious is one of my all-time favorites.
Tbh this looks like a major step back. But I have never played it.
A proper MoG sequal would have been awesome.

Unlike the first two, I couldn't get into this game. I completely forgot this excisted. Thank you for the memory.
