Did you know Twitch classifies this game as a metroidvania? Kinda funny since this game came out in 1987 and Metroid came out the year before, but the term metroidvania didn't really get defined until 1997 when Symphony of the night came out and someone at a magazine started throwing it around!!

I guess this is sort of like a metroidvania in that you get items that unlock new paths, but it's much more linear and doesn't have a lot of backtracking honestly so I wouldn't really call it anything more than an adventure game.
