Sequel of an arcade game: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate_Ship_Higemaru

btw. most Japanese ship names end in "maru"

I've never seen this game, but it is probably based on a famous manga with the same name:

Is this based on the movies starring Charles Bronson?

Well, there is the Omega Point Theory.
Comic books also use this amount other plot devices ...
Big Brother complex is very common!

@Yukio: Thanks for the info.

Guys... I was serious as a matter of fact in really wanting to know the plot behind the games I mentioned.

...But I'll just join the fun then...

How about:


Inspector Z

Be a dog and put bombs in paintings.


Andorogynus

Be a man, a woman AND a strange cloud, and ride your fluorescent bicycle through hostile underwater worlds.


Sa-Zi-Ri

Scream your enemies to death.



[edit] Of the latter two games, I actually know the true plot.

You'd think it when considering the title screen.

Maybe Snatcher, SD-Snatcher, Akira and Relics are all done by the same lazy-ass Japanese illustrator.
