Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins review

It's hard. It's relentless. It makes grown men cry. All told, we like it a lot

After some practice, however, we got used to the game's frantic tempo and adjusted to its demanding gameplay. Once it all clicked, the fun really started flowing, and we began to take all of the crazy challenges in stride. We used upwards of 16 continues during that first adventure, but hey, it was a learning experience. Next time we know we can halve that (or better), and we look forward to trying. That's the mark of a well-made, addictive arcade game.
