"Lakeview" - Three Wonders

View On WordPress

A new edition of Retro Corner is up as I have an old review to show you from an infamous series. We are in the Halloween season, and I can’t think of a better game series for it then from Ghosts N Goblins. You may find this surprising, but GNG is one of my favorite niche series of gaming. That’s right kiddies; I’m that hardcore and this isn’t even the hardest series to play through. You think this is extremely challenging? Go pick up Batman NES (which is NES hard) and you will be back playing GNG and Ninja Gaiden again. What I love about GNG is the theme of playing as a knight named Author who is often tasked with saving the world from the Ghoul Realm. As you guessed, there is a princess involved as well that needs saving in classic gaming 101 fashion. I also love the challenges that comes with each game Capcom develops. It saddens me that Ultimate Ghosts N Goblins for the PSP was the last one made as Capcom seems more concerned with the Blue Bomber. For this edition, I will show an old review I did two-year ago when the site was in its first year. The game is the second in the series called Ghouls N Ghosts as it got released in 1988 for the Arcades. The sequel used the CPS-1 system which helped develop 16-bit games for this arcade cabinet. The theme is about Author coming back to the main land after three years when he saved the kingdom and its princess. Upon his return, demons start attacking the castle town as he finds out a dark being called Lucifer has taken the land. He brought the Ghoul Realm to the living world, taken the souls of humans and kidnapped the princess’ souls too. Author sets out across the kingdom to stop Lucifer’s forces and save the people and their princess from his evil. Ghouls N Ghosts would also receive many updates to its gameplay and graphics that goes far beyond the original. Ghouls N Ghosts (Arcade) Review
