GHOSTS'N'GOBLINS Elite 1986 CONTROLS : Keyboard, Kempston, Sinclair ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AIM : To quote the original instructions (written in Japlish): "Ghosts'n'Goblins is the classic fighting fantasy story, heroic knight to rescue beautiful maiden from clutches of demonic Overlord". GAMEPLAY : The unnamed knight must battle his way through five zones filled with the usual selection of monsters and other nasty creatures: 1) Graveyard 2) Dark Forest 3) Ice Palace 4) Monsters' Den 5) Cavern System At the end of each zone is a demon to kill - not an easy task! Some creatures carry pots which they drop when they die. Inside the pot is an object, usually a weapon, which you can pick up. There are three weapons, with different rates of fire: the slowest is the fire bomb, the lance is what you start with, while the best is the dagger. You start with a suit of armour which will disintegrate if you hit a monster, leaving you in your underwear; another hit will be fatal. COMMENTS : "Very playable and addictive". RATING : 95% (CRASH #30, July 1986) NOW : Still an enjoyable, and challenging, game. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- KEYS : Redefinable
