Colosso Revenge

Colosso Revenge is an obscure action-oriented title from Campana Productions that belongs to the wonderfully strange world of independent PC games from the late 1990s. The name suggests a grand tale of vengeance, and the game certainly embraces the period's fascination with straightforward action and larger-than-life scenarios. Its presentation is decidedly old-school, with mechanics that feel more interested in getting you into the action than explaining everything beforehand. That rough simplicity can be part of the appeal today: there is something refreshingly honest about a game that basically says, “Here is the challenge; good luck.” Retro enthusiasts looking for lesser-known curiosities may find plenty to enjoy here.

“This was part two in the series released in December of 1996. The story continues from episode #1. If you didn't purchased the game you missed out on a lot of fun. After the princess has been saved you learned that the mad doctor has left his monster machine on overload. You must now race to stop the machine before the world is destroyed. You had better hurry. As long as the machine is running you can still save us all, but more men and monsters are being made to fight you.” - Campana Productions
