    I think the game is very well made. The level design is clever and devious. The reason I only give the game a 7 is that the difficulty is through the roof, to the degree that I don't feel my "skill" has any impact. Whenever I came out alive from a challenging fight, I was just lucky.

    I put about 60 hours into this game. So granted, maybe after another 60 hours my skill will improve. But I more or less doubt it.
    But still, the game is very focused on its design philosophy and gets consistently harder and harder. Despite it almost costing me a controller, I respect it.    … Expand

    I'm an old schooler gamer. I grew up playing the original Ghosts 'n Goblins on NES and SNES. I've beat those games more than once and they were definitely tough. I'm also a big fan of the Soulsborne games and have beaten every one of those, so you'd think this game would be right up my alley right?

I'm also a big fan of the Soulsborne games and have beaten every one of those, so you'd think this game would be right up my alley right? Unfortunately this game is seriously lacking in the elements that made those original games tough but enjoyable. It is needlessly difficult to the point you don't really feel like you're accomplishing anything or getting better at the game. The closest thing to describe it is throwing yourself into a meatgrinder and hoping you come out on the other side in one piece.

    Each level has massive amounts of obstacles in your way while simultaneously having boat loads of enemies thrown at you. Your character is as slow and useless as ever to the point you are certain to take tons of hits fighting bosses, making it a race to see who can kill who faster rather a game of skill. The game simply is not fun to play in the least. The one thing I'll say about it is that the art is very well done. Other than that, unless you're into BDSM or something, you shouldn't even waste your time on this one.    … Expand

    Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection - это 2D платформер с боковой прокруткой. В игре снова присутствует рыцарь Артур, который должен перемещаться по Царству Демонов, чтобы сражаться с врагами, такими как скелеты, зомби и Свиньи. После того, как игрок заканчивает игру, он может завершить теневые версии каждого этапа, которые изменяют расположение и точки появления врагов, а также вводятGhosts 'n Goblins Resurrection - это 2D платформер с боковой прокруткой.

После того, как игрок заканчивает игру, он может завершить теневые версии каждого этапа, которые изменяют расположение и точки появления врагов, а также вводят дополнительные экологические проблемы, которые затрудняют навигацию на каждом этапе. В игре представлено восемь различных видов оружия. Это включает в себя копье, которое можно метнуть, и молот, который вызывает ударную волну, когда ударяется о землю. По мере продвижения игрока он будет собирать мрачных пчел, которые затем можно использовать, чтобы разблокировать и улучшить магические и боевые навыки Артура. В игре четыре уровня сложности: «Легенды» - самый сложный, «Рыцарь», «Сквайр» и «Пейдж» - самый легкий. Если игрок умрет, он возродится на контрольной точке . Сложность прохождения не может быть изменена навсегда, но игрокам будет предоставлена ​​возможность снизить сложность для оставшейся части уровня после нескольких последовательных смертей. В игре также есть локальный кооперативный многопользовательский режим для двух игроков. Второй игрок может взять на себя роль Барри, Керри или Арчи. У каждого из них есть свои способности, которые могут помочь Артуру в его поисках.… Expand

    awful controls?!? do people know what they are writing about? controls are just fine, the weird feeling comes from the character being very slow walking, and much faster when side jumping. probably this reflects the original games. enemies spawn randomly exactly like in the original games, so if you liked those this is a decent remaster/replay that doesn't add too much except nicerawful controls?!? do people know what they are writing about? controls are just fine, the weird feeling comes from the character being very slow walking, and much faster when side jumping. probably this reflects the original games. enemies spawn randomly exactly like in the original games, so if you liked those this is a decent remaster/replay that doesn't add too much except nicer graphics (80s-like 3 frame animations 'though) and a not too exciting spell tree system… Expand

    This revival perfectly captures the spirit of the arcade games. It looks great (built on the RE Engine) and each stage is loaded with secrets. There is also a co-op mode and four difficulty levels. But beware, the game is filled with old-school challenges. It's punishingly hard. Fans of the series will love every minute of it. I would rate this with a 7.4 out of 10.

    Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection stands out as perhaps one of the most accessible games in the series yet. The various difficulty levels, accompanying adjustments, and the unlimited lives for all difficulty levels give series newcomers a sense of hope that they can see the game to its conclusion. At the same time, the title remains tough and uncompromising in enemy count and gameplay, giving longtime fans some comfort that the series hasn't lost its appeal. It is a solid game, and the only players who should stay away are those who hate facing an elevated level of difficulty from the get-go.

    Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection looks great, sounds great, but unfortunately, doesn't play great. Fans of the genre and/or franchise will likely find a lot to enjoy here, but those new to the spooky world of Ghosts 'n Goblins may end up tapping out before they see the credits.

    A decent update that has a love/hate approach to difficulty. The art style can undermine the gameplay, and on harder settings it feels unfair rather than unforgiving. [Issue#3, p.138]
