Flashback - The Quest For Identity

Developer: Delphine Software

Flashback - The Quest For Identity on Sega CD blends cinematic animation with precise platforming and light puzzle-solving. You play Conrad B. Hart, an amnesiac courier unraveling a sci-fi conspiracy across atmospheric, hand-drawn environments. Movement and combat demand timing and patience; wall jumps, timed shots and environmental puzzles stress accuracy over button-mashing. CD audio and FMV sequences heighten the noir sci-fi mood. Expect spare saves, tough boss encounters and satisfying problem-solving that reward exploration. It's a deliberate, tense platformer that still charms players who crave cinematic presentation, challenging pacing, and pure retro game design.
