Are there any genuinely good Philips CD-i games?

This maybe a dumb question but,I often hear how the Philips CD-i is one of the worst video game consoles of all time and I’m curious as to if there’s any games that are worth a try

Hotel Mario is the only one I can think of that comes remotely close, but even so it's extremely primitive. Like an old Atari game except with fancier graphics and sounds.

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

Yes, actually:

The 7th Guest, Axis & Allies, Crime Patrol 1 & 2, Flashback...

 

[Scotty]

Yes, though it's mostly just multi-platform games like "Flashback", "Lemmings" or "Tetris."

Hotel Mario, Pac-Panic, Tetris. Only those 3 top in my head.

As much of a meme as it is I actually don't think Link: The Faces of Evil is all that bad. The other two Zelda games really are trash, but FoE is pretty decent if you can get used to the controls. The stage backgrounds are also quite pretty for the time.

How does the Wand of Gamelon differ from Faces of Evil? They released at the same time and on the surface they sort of look the same

The areas and enemy placements are just more obnoxiously designed, they control the same one is just a better experience than they other.

There's a Zelda CD-i inspired indie game sooooo

I thought Voyeur was kinda cool for an FMV game. Lost Eden is good if you have the DVC, Burn Cycle is probably considered it's best game

it had some decent FMV light gun games like Mad Dog Macree and Thunder in Paradise

 

[JPchicre]

You can watch Fatal Attraction in it, or hear some Fletwood Mac music

Everything is worth a try and good is subjective. I don't know what it might be, but maybe the game that ends up being your all time favorite is a cd-i game you just haven't tried yet.

 

[Bonkers225]

Yes, but you're better off playing them elsewhere. And they're all FMV games: Braindead, Space Ace, and Myst.
