Gayblade

Platforms: Macintosh, Windows 3.x Developer: RJ Best, Inc. Publisher: RJ Best, Inc. 1992 Tags: Casual, Contemporary, Fantasy, Turn-based combat

Description:

This Wizardry-style first-person dungeon crawler has the player controlling a team of LGBT heroes as they try to rescue the Empress Nelda from Lord Nanahcub and his evil forces. The character classes and items are all affectionate parodies of early 90s gay stereotypes, while the villains are parodies of the early 90s anti-LGBT political movement.

When the author went unpaid for developing Citadel of the Dead for another publisher, he developed this using its source code as a basis.
