Ghouls 'n Ghosts

It was three years ago when the Dark Prince, Loki, made an attempt to destroy the beautiful, peaceful kingdom of Lexet. It was Sir Arthur who courageously fought Loki and saved the people of Lexet from Loki's nasty grasp.

But the wicked and evasive Dark Prince has once again pillaged Lexet and plagued the people with paralyzing fear. And this time he took the breathtaking beauty, Princess Tamara!

You as Sir Arthur must avenge your village and rescue Princess Tamara. It's not going to be easy! Snorting pigmen, scythe-wielding skeletons and haunted guillotines with an appetite for human flesh are some of the countless loathsome creatures that you will encounter. That's not all.
In order to reach Loki's castle you must obtain the keys to the locked gates. But first you must confront the Gatekeepers who will do anything to keep you away from the keys. Sounds tough? Someone has to do it.
You can - if you have the right weapons, plenty of luck and lots of guts!
