GayBlade is an action role-playing video game developed by Ryan Best and released in 1992.[1] Among the earliest of LGBT-themed video games (preceded in 1989 by Caper in the Castro), and long considered lost, a recovery effort by the LGBTQ Video Game Archive[2] resulted in a playable emulation in 2020.[3]
