The second Famicom Golgo 13 enriches the formula with more direct action. Still in Japanese, still as adult in atmosphere. More accessible than the first. For Duke Togo fans.

Is Golgo 13 - Dainishou - Icarus no Nazo still worth playing in 2026?
A sequel to the Golgo 13 action game from Vic Tokai, this entry sends the assassin Duke Togo on a mission against the Icarus organisation, blending platforming, shooting and even pseudo 3D phases in mazes. The variety of sequences and the adult espionage mood contrast with the era's productions. The uneven production and some laborious phases cap the fun. For a fan of the Golgo 13 manga or someone curious about the NES's offbeat narrative action games, the title keeps a singular character.
