This suped-up version of Capcom‘s classic Ghouls ‘N Ghosts on the Super Nintendo is a massive amount of fun to play!
For starters: the game is a little easier than the arcade version, and there are a wide variety of new levels – many of which pay tribute to the arcade game, but make full use of the Super Nintendo‘s built in powers (in particular with Mode 7 scrolling, which features heavily throughout, to great effect). So lots of great stuff to see, and the game at least gives you a chance to see some of it.
And Super Ghouls ‘N Ghosts just goes on and on. The visual quality throughout is truly immense, and you really want to see what kind of perverted monsters/landscapes/ideas the designers will throw at you next.
This really is an imaginative and colourful horror tribute game!
