The Kikan Remake was a project undertaken by Luke Drelick in an effort to rehash his old [[MegaZeux]] game Kikan, but to do it better than it had been done the first time. Tells of four people and their adventures and struggles in Neo New York. The game's battle system, loosely based on Dragon Warrior, is one of the few complete MZX RPG battle systems. In the game Drelick's love of Japanese RPGs is fairly visible, and in his soundtrack one can see his trademark love for electronic music, especially of the house variety. The game was released to a good community reception, earning high marks from many [[MZXers]].
