Description

Ghouls 'n Ghosts beckons gamers to a hauntingly nostalgic journey back to 1988. This side-scrolling platform game by Capcom, the sequel to Ghosts 'n Goblins, immerses players in the heroic saga of Sir Arthur as he battles hordes of undead and demonic creatures to restore the souls of his beloved Princess Prin-Prin and the kingdom's inhabitants. Traversing through eerie levels and enduring ominous atmospheres, players must strategize their combat, leverage unique weapons, and don gold armor for magical attacks. Despite bearing similarities to its predecessor, Ghouls 'n Ghosts offers new gameplay elements, such as firing in mid-air and hidden treasure chests. To conquer the game, players must complete all five levels twice, equipped with a special weapon to enter Lucifer's chamber. This retro arcade classic is a testament to Capcom's legacy, boasting a compelling storyline, captivating graphics, and a riveting soundtrack that won four awards from Electronic Gaming Monthly in 1989.
