Osomatsu-Kun: Back to the Me no Deppa no Maki
Nintendo Entertainment System · 1989
About this game
Osomatsu-kun's second video game adaptation begins with Iyami finding an oddity in a scroll depicting his Edo-period paternal ancestor: the ancestor was not depicted with Iyami's signature buckteeth - which Iyami was told is a hereditary trait on his father's side - and instead holding up a seemingly anachronistic set of dentures.
Osomatsu brings the scroll to Dekapan who had just banged up a time machine (literally, with a hammer) and begins the time travel between 1980s Japan, Edo-period Japan and prehistoric period to solve the case of the anachronistic dentures and missing buckteeth.

Back to the Me no Deppa no Maki plays like a typical Japanese-style adventure game with some bird's eye view roaming areas and light RPG elements.
The actions in the first-person adventure view are all represented by visual buttons rather than words.
The examine button (represented as a magnifying glass) turns on a cursor, which gives this game some point & select gameplay.
The RPG elements are represented by a health bar, by a money resource (which changes currency based on the time period) and by the inn's health recovery function.
The game also provides a "Game Center" in all eras as another money making source.
In the Game Center, you gamble in a memory minigame.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
