Description: Another classic from the folks who brought us Altered Beast, originally on the arcade and then ported to the Megadrive. It's surprisingly challenging, but a ton of fun if you have patience with it.
A note on TAS: The reason I TAS a lot of my gameplay videos is to save the viewer time. Time is a valuable commodity and we can not recover time already spent. I'm also curious to see what the game would look like if it were played by someone with super-human reflexes.
A note on difficulty: Difficulty is rated on a five star scale. 5 stars indicates legendary level difficulty that only the most dedicated players will be able to beat. These are the Ghosts N' Goblins out there. Four stars indicates 'really f*&^%$# hard'. Three stars indicates 'hard, but not impossible' or 'challenging'. Two stars indicates not hard, and one star is 'easy'.
