Item Description

Namco Museum Volume 3 might be the most interesting disc in the PlayStation series, because it pairs three games everyone knows with three that most Western players had never seen. Galaxian, Ms. Pac-Man and Dig Dug are the familiar faces. Phozon, Pole Position II and The Tower of Druaga are the curiosities, and they are what make this volume such a rewarding afternoon.

The Tower of Druaga is the headliner for anyone interested in game history. Knight Gilgamesh climbs sixty floors to rescue the maiden Ki from the demon Druaga, and every floor hides a treasure revealed by some obscure action, a design that drove Japanese arcade players to swap notes and helped plant the seeds of the action RPG. This volume even hides two extra versions, Another Tower and Darkness Tower, each tougher than the original and demanding a different approach to beat. Phozon is stranger still: a meditative puzzle-shooter where you steer a molecule around the screen, gathering atoms to match a target shape while dodging a hostile one.

The classics hold up as well as ever. Dig Dug's pump-and-pop routine and its well-timed falling rocks are pure arcade comfort food, Ms. Pac-Man's mazes and smarter ghosts make a strong case that she improved on the original, and Galaxian shows where Namco's space-shooter lineage began. Pole Position II brings the racing, with more courses than the first game, and is still a satisfying blast of early-'80s speed.

As with the rest of the series, each game comes with its own room in a virtual museum you can wander between plays, filled with artwork and history from the era. Collecting all five numbered volumes is a classic PS1 project, and Volume 3 is the one that rewards curiosity most, the disc where Namco's lesser-known experiments sit right beside its biggest hits.

About the game

The third PlayStation volume contains: - Galaxian (1979) - Ms. Pac-Man (1981) - Dig Dug (1982) - Phozon (1983) - Pole Position II (1983) - The Tower of Druaga (1984) The majority of the included games were well-known worldwide but Phozon and The Tower of Druaga were relatively unknown. Two unique versions of The Tower of Druaga were also hidden in this volume: one called "Another Tower", and the other called "Darkness Tower". Both are harder than the original and require different methods to beat the game.
