Play 3wonders Online
Pick a knight, jetpack dude, or spaceship—then dive into pure Neo Geo chaos with chunky sprites, screen-filling explosions, and that sweet, punishing 90s arcade difficulty.
Game Overview
Man, 3wonders is one of those Neo Geo gems that just throws you right into the chaos. It’s a side-scrolling shooter, but not just any shooter—this one’s got three completely different games packed into one. You start off picking between a fantasy knight, a cyberpunk jetpack guy, or a straight-up shoot-everything-that-moves spaceship. I went with the knight first, because, well, swords.
The action’s fast, the sprites are chunky and colorful, and everything explodes in that satisfying 90s arcade way. You’ll dodge arrows, blast through waves of enemies, and occasionally stumble into secret power-ups that make your character hilariously overpowered for about 10 seconds. The difficulty’s brutal in that classic arcade style—expect to die a lot unless you’ve got lightning reflexes or a pocket full of quarters.
What’s cool is that each of the three games feels totally distinct. The spaceship section plays like a bullet-hell lite, while the jetpack stages have this weird verticality where you’re constantly boosting up and down. And the knight? Pure hack-and-slash goodness. It’s like getting three arcade cabinets for the price of one, which was probably the whole point back in the day.
If you’re into retro shooters with zero hand-holding and a ton of personality, this one’s a blast—just don’t expect to beat it on your first try.
