Play 1497 - Five Years After Online

Game Overview

1497 - Five Years After is one of those Amiga games that feels like it got lost in time—in a good way. You're thrown into this weirdly atmospheric medieval world where everything's a bit off, like someone took history and gave it a surreal twist. The pixel art has that grainy, moody Amiga charm, and the soundtrack? Hauntingly simple, just a few synth notes that somehow stick with you.

Gameplay’s a mix of exploration and light puzzle-solving—nothing too punishing, but you’ll definitely scratch your head a few times. I remember wandering through these dimly lit villages, talking to NPCs who say just enough to creep you out without explaining much. It’s the kind of game where you piece together the story yourself, and half the fun is filling in the gaps.

If you’re into obscure retro titles with a vibe, this one’s worth dusting off an emulator for. Just don’t expect hand-holding.
