>What is this?
Games are chosen (relatively or totally obscure on purpose) with hopes of bringing new avenues of playing potential to anons with narrow video game perspectives. The goal isn't to pick bad games, but obscure ones nobody, or as few people as possible, have played. You can play the game and then use that fact as bragging rights to others! You can use it to broaden your backlog horizons! Or you can forget about it.

>How does it play?
Ogre Battle 64 is a semi-sequel to the original
Ogre Battle, and is the third game in the series. Like its predecessors, the game is a tactical RPG. The main character, Magnus, leads many troops into each battle, and the player must control how each group attacks or defends, and whether straightforward attacks or magic shall be used.
Depending on the player's choices, there are branching levels, each with their own difficulty levels. The more battles the player faces and completes, the more experience each warrior in the team gathers.

ABOUT FEATURED GAME AND HOW GAMES ARE FEATURED:
This event's now Featured Game for flexible uptime. For transparency, integrity, verifiability, and least drama, moderators will select all future Featured Games by a moderator's roulette spin, then by this list, non-negotiably so process tampering doesn't derail Featured Games. As a rule, please discuss the game, not this nor drama, thank you.
1) A moderator signs his role then roulette spins a die with 4000 sides using the command
/roll{1d4000}
;
2) He searches this numbered item in the gr.blade.sk spreadsheet;
3) He counts up from that item, including that item, to a console or handheld game whose console or handheld released in any region before 2005;
4) He continues to count if the game relies on modern hardware, as most people won't be able to enjoy it, rendering the thread kind of pointless;
5) He continues if it's too popular. "Too popular" is non-negotiably decided by the moderator, but examples are CoD, FIFA, and GTA;
6) He continues if it cannot be emulated at all, to mitigate virus risks and avoid broken games;
7) He continues if it's always-online, live service, only mobile, only multiplayer, depends on external servers, or requires overly gimmicky controls;
8) He can continue 1 or 2 more games ahead at his discretion, but no further.
