4.0 out of 5 stars A great classic game., October 1, 2002

The quest itself is very linear, but clever in it that the entire setting is in one tower. The gameplay is engossing, but never complicated like Zelda and requires no thinking. If you just what to kill enemies, this game is for you. While the game is rather short, it is fun playing it through several times.

Some of you may or may not know that this is a 16-bit version of the same game release in the arcades in the early 90's. Trust me, I've played the arcade version years back. The game does have RPG elements but it's mostly a hack-n-slash 2-D side-scroller.
Nintendo did a great job transfering this classic arcade game onto an 8-meg cartridge. The levels and bosses might be used more than once during the game but, its still addictive. There is a fair amount of replay value with a total of 50+ levels. Most of the levels though can be conqured in a matter of minutes but who cares. This is all just straight forward mindless fun. What do you expect from a super nintendo game that was made in 1992.
Overall the game has excellent music and graphics. There is a wide variety of characters that can assist you and you get weapon upgrades once certain levels are cleared.
If you have ever played King of Dragons or Knights of the Round than dont miss a chance to pick up this game.

Definately a take me back game. I never had the game itself, but played the arcade a bit too much. Never had enough quarters to beat it then, and if i didn't get an in game cheat for levels and lives, I still would not have beaten it. Hard, but fun.
