''Forgotten Worlds'' (''Lost Worlds'' [[Market
Set in the 29th Century, the story starts with a [[Galactic Conqueror]] and [[God of Evil]] and Destruction known as BIOS, who has created 8 evil gods and went on conquering and destroying worlds, turning them into husks of their former selves. Eventually, Earth is targeted and suffers the same fate, becoming a warren wasteland known as the "Dust World". The few humans that have survived decide to fight back by raising and training two childs into [[Badass]] [[Super Soldier|Super Soldiers]]. This works wonders, and the two now adult [[No Name Given|Nameless]] Soldiers embark on a quest to defeat BIOS.
The game was quite succesful back then, getting ported to many consoles and home computers of the time, including the [[Mega Drive]] port (which has to cut a few things, like voiceovers and 2 stages) and the later [[PC Engine]] port (which removed 2 player co-op, but included a bunch of bonus features). The main characters were also brought somewhat reguarly in several of the company's [[Crossover]] games.

* [[Orcus On His Throne]]: When the player reaches BIOS's chamber, he's non-chalantly sitting on his throne.
