- TRIVIA -


Released in July 1988.


This game is known outside Japan as "Forgotten Worlds".


Lost Worlds is NOT the sequel to "Black Tiger" but he shares several similitudes with it : In both games the player must fight dragons, collect 'ZENNY' money and buy weapons and armour in shops. Also, both games have intros depicting dragons attacking cities.


The first player character, Unknown Soldier, appears as an assist character in "Marvel vs. Capcom - Clash of Super Heroes". The second player character would appear in "Final Fight" as an enemy member of Mad Gear. He was then called 'Two P' (for 2P, 'player 2').


Pony Canyon / Scitron released a limited-edition soundtrack album for this game (Daimakaimura : G.S.M. Capcom 1 - D28B-0011) on 11/01/1989.
