Any cool retro games with Islamic/Arabian/Persian overtones?

I only know about Prince of Persia, Doki Doki Panic, Shantae, and The Magic of Scheherezade. I'm sure there's lots more though!

It's nothing groundbreaking, but it's a decent RPG. I think it's worth a playthrough.

spyro's level design has a lot of clearly persian inspiration

>>3338039
The Capcom one is basically a generic platformer, it even has autoscrolling levels and hop 'n bop gameplay.

The Virgin one is much better, it's like pseudo-Metroid with great swordplay.

Looks like this thread got censored as well.

Jesus fuck, we go from no janitor to an overly sensitive one.
>>
>>3339058
Haha, no. Capcom's Aladdin is good looking and innovates with the parkour-esque gameplay mechanics.

Virgin's Aladdin is a bland looking generic game with clunky controls and uninspired level design.

What was deleted and why do you think it's censorship?

How do I know it wasn't someone just being a complete retard? Maybe the janitor cleaned it up so people would stop replying to it? His job is to keep people from slipping and falling in copious amounts of piss. Are you complaining that someone finally gave a fuck about /vr/ for once?
