Neugier: Umi to Kaze no Kodō (ノイギーア〜海と風の鼓動〜, "Neugier ~Pulse of the Sea and Wind~")[1] is an action-adventure / action role-playing game for the Super Famicom. Although the game was scheduled for release in the United States as The Journey Home: Quest for the Throne, in November 1993, the project was canceled.

Gameplay

Duke, the main character, fights in real-time battles on his quest to save Neugier. He can jump and equip armor in an RPG fashion. There is also an ability to push objects, or enemies, into a wall to break them.

Reception

Upon release, GameFan's four reviewers gave the game scores of 86%, 79%, 77% and 72%. They praised the action gameplay, creative game mechanics, graphics, and music, but criticized it for being short and easy. They concluded that it is "a good game, but could have been better."[2]
