All four games cover a variety of genres throughout the late 1980’s and 1990s. In Crusader of Centy, fourteen-year-old Corona takes up his father’s sword to fend off alien foes threatening humanity. Most notably, he throws it around like a boomerang to defeat enemies and befriends animals with special abilities.
Ghouls ‘n Ghosts, the sequel to Ghouls ‘n Goblins, pits you against horrific demons like vultures and the living dead. Prince Arthur sets off on a mission to save Princess Prin-Prin and restore everyone’s stolen souls. There’s also a cameo from a character in Gargoyle’s Quest, Ghouls ‘n Goblins Game Boy spin-off that’s also available in the NSO library.
