Most of these things – items, weapons, additional skills – aren’t available to start. However, much like MegaMan, he cannot duck, so sometimes shooting an item or enemy requires some creative moves. Unlike Ghouls, where Arthur could only move, jump (and double jump) and shoot, Firebrand can jump, shoot, change weapons, collect and use items, cling to the sides of things, and hover.

Like head-butt statues in the background to reveal items and the occasional monster. It sticks to the SNES standard for attack and jump, but adds magic and special for those extra fun things you can do. It’s no Whirlo with three different jump buttons, but it uses all four of the SNES’ face buttons, compared with Ghouls n Ghosts which uses only two. The first thing you notice is the complexity of the controls. So, just to drive the point home, it’s Ghouls n Ghosts for player who wants a little bit more of the same, but awesomer. In this game the player controls one of the bad guys (the Red Arremer) through a land more dangerous, more complicated, and more inconceivably beautiful than its predecessors. It is a sequel to the Demon’s Quest series, which is a sort of parallel series to Ghouls ‘n Ghosts.

It is moderately well known now, but it was an unknown sensation back in 1994. Sometimes a game would slip through the cracks, and those in the know would talk about how awesome it was while the majority of players didn’t know it existed.ĭemon’s Crest is such a game. When the SNES was still king there were popular games and there were good games, and they weren’t always the same.
