As you can tell, this is the game this site is named after. In many ways extremely innovative, you are cast into the roles of Konami Man and Konami Girl in order to save heros from another Konami games to help your fight against an evil menace. Play though levels based on Castlevania, Getsufuu Maden, The Goonies, Ganbare Goemon, and King Kong, and rescue the protagonist of each game to enlist their help. There's a lot of hidden stuff to find and a good amount to explore, though the game is rather linear (despite the ability to choose your starting stage.) And the gameplay itself is slightly sub-par for a Konami game. But the idea is marvelous and is still executed well enough to be a very enjoyable experience (especially with the Twinbee/Vic Viper shooter game near the end.)
