I have never beaten Ghosts n Goblins. Good on this person.

I admire their dedication! They even beat the LCD version, and I didn't know that was possible.

What a mad man. This was my first rage quit. Painstakingly played the SNES version to find out at the end that you need some stupid bracelet to get to the last boss.

I played this in the arcade a lot!

Man, some of those ports are rough. The Atari ST was pretty amazing for an 8-bit computer, though.

Same. This game ate a lot of my quarters. I remember spamming the gravestones and getting turned into a frog. There's also this one spot about halfway through where if you had the dagger/sword and about 1:30 on the clock you could rapid fire left and right as an ever-increasing number of zombies would come at you faster and faster. I never did get to area 6, let alone clear it.

I finally beat the game as a kid on Genesis (Sega Mega Drive). Then it restarted me for new game plus to complete the story. Noo thanks.
