An oldie but a goodie for sure. Solomon's Key is one of the best and most intricately crafted puzzle games on the NES, and one of the more overlooked puzzlers on the system too, strangely enough. You control Dana, a wizard, who is trying to make things right by reclaiming Solomon's Key (a book), after a traveling taoist monk found the book and unknowingly unleashed a terrible evil unto the world.

Dana travels through dozens of rooms known as "Constellation Spaces", as the rooms are divided into Zodiac signs. There are many hidden rooms and you get slightly different endings depending on what you discover during the course of the game. This game is also noted for being very difficult. Enjoy.
