The plot twist is a failure, as it doesn't make sense. If the shadowpeople or whatever they're called are created by shadow people taking over someone elses body, then were did they come from originally? And honestly, plot twists aren't very effective when it's so obvious that they were just thrown in there at the last minute, without any foreshadowing. All it serves is to make the game seem more thought out and planned than it truly was. 3/5 though, pretty decent
I'd like to note that difficulty doesn't necessarily make a better game, although it can (again, megaman proves this) but my personal favourite nes game, kirby's dream land, is undeniably easy, however I really enjoyed the gameplay variety it provided with the different powers. So, there can be good and bad difficulty, and this game, unfortunately, falls into the latter.
This game is to put it bluntly, a stupid at harking back to the nes days of megaman and ghosts and goblins, however unlike those two games both of which I adore (escecpially megaman) this game's difficulty is fake, and what I mean by that is that the only reason I have trouble beating it is the endless pauses and lag I encounter, and otherwise easy game. Is anyone other getting this lag? I've tried refreshing several times to no avail, and no other comments make note of it, so i'm rather curious. Oh, and the protentious comments here are quite irritating, as many nes qeren't difficult by design and the only reason they weren't as easy as modern games was by the their terrible quality. For every megaman, there was inevitably several more peices fof terrible shovelware. Finally,
