I played a lot of Star Wars games like X-Wing, TIE Fighter, and Dark Forces 1 and 2, and Racer. Also some strategy games like Starcraft and Age of Empires. And I also played Claw. It was a really neat sidescroller where you played as a cat pirate captain looking for his lost ship, crew, and of course, gold. You had to run around through the level collecting different kinds of gold pieces, weapons like dynamite, flintlock pistol ammo, and magic. You could also find powerups for your sword like fire, ice, and lightning, which shot out blasts from your regular sword and let you save ammo from your other ranged weapons. And catnip made you leap extra for short periods of time. You'd have to watch out for spike pits and climb walls and swing across ropes, watching out for various animal bad guys like bomb-throwing pirate mice, crossbow-shooting fox thieves, wolf guardsmen, and random seagulls and at the end of some levels, you had to fight bosses that were pretty hard, actually. They had really beefed-up weapons and at least one had magic as well. I get a kick out of anthropomorphic animal stories, I just like that style. It was great fun.
