- Players exploring untranslated Japanese and Korean games
- Worth noticing
- OpenScreamer reads a game from the player's own disk image; original assets are distributed only where rights holders permit.
Field notes
The three entries identify source platforms and years: PC-9801 (1986), X68000 (1991), and Windows (2000). OpenScreamer is described as using a player-supplied disk image, while the site distinguishes permitted asset distribution from projects where players must provide their own game copy. Each entry is marked in progress, so the homepage does not establish that the advertised builds are ready to use.
