Hey, rizo. There were two versions of Die Hard. One was a 2D side scroller, and the other was a top down. They were made for different gaming systems. Still not sure if it's what you are looking for, but humor me, and look at both versions. Thanks much!

@rizo: Sort of sounds like Die Hard. It's been a while since I've played that, but your description immediately brought that to mind.

@baobabby: WOOHOO! I got one!

You're very welcome.

@baobabby: That sounds a lot like Alchemy, but I don't remember there being an animals option. It could be a knockoff or a variant.

@lordmalvern: I tried the idea of looking for games that had "Turkish March" in them, but that didn't pan out. Still looking in obscure places.

@lordmalvern: When were you four years old?

I also am looking for two games. Both came out in the early 80s I think, and if I recall correctly, my buddy and I played them on his Apple IIe, though it may have been on anything from Atari 800XL to an older (Commodore PC10) PC.

The first was an RPG style game with a party of characters. You could go to different locations in between dungeons (towns at least) and your characters could find jobs to make some extra coin. Not Quest jobs, but REAL jobs. A dwarf with a blacksmith skill could find work at the blacksmith shop and make some cash. Don't specifically remember any others, but they would pay base upon the characters specific level in a particular skill. Not much in the way of details I'm afraid, but if you can help, it would be great.

The second one was a turn based game. It was Western themed and you could play "The Man With No Name". If I remember correctly, you could also play either Jesse James or Bob Ford, though I seem to remember just "listening in" on the assassination of Jesse James.

Thanks a bunch in advance.
