Another short knight in Ghouls 'N Ghosts. This one, as usual, is after his tottie who's been kidnapped - computergameland is certainly a dangerous place to be if you're a girly. Ol' Knighty has to traverse a horizontally-scrolling landscape, biffing the ghouls and frightening the ghosts, collecting bonuses and trying not to be killed in a hideous vulture/ghoul/mistimed jump style situation.

There's one problem with this - it's not very good. Or rather, the conversion of the coin-op isn't very good. The graphics are average, the sound's - well, you can guess, and the gameplay just doesn't flow in the way it should. Knighty reacts awkwardly to your commands, meaning you keep getting killed when you know you shouldn't!

It's all very depressing and not really worth a first glance, let alone a second one.
