Ghosts ‘n Goblins
Let’s be frank: Ghosts ‘n Goblins is not an easy game. The gauntlet of hostile enemies, limited health, and slew of hidden collectibles crucial to completing the game in full have caused a fair few gaming-related headaches for more than one or two in the past. And yet, behind that challenge is a legitimately well-made game. With the proper timing and skill, players can make their way through a well-realized fantasy world full of charmingly designed monsters and creatures, an arsenal of useful weapons, and a perfect example of gaming from a past era.
With the continued popularity of challenging games like Dark Souls, Chasm and so many more, now would be an ideal time to bring players back into the fold of this teeth-cutting original with tweaks and refinements to the game here and there. Not only could Capcom touch up the graphics from its PlayStation Portable remaster, but they could also include more power-ups and replace the collectibles to streamline the experience, allowing for more players to gain the sense of accomplishment inherent in conquering this beast of a side-scrolling classic.
