How to Play Ghosts 'n Goblins
Quick start
Choose a difficulty, starting with the easiest option while learning. In the opening graveyard, practise A jumps and B shots, watching both sides before moving. Use Down to crouch. Cross hazards deliberately rather than jumping into unseen enemies. After clearing a stage, write down its password before continuing.
Controls
Left/Right moves Arthur, Up/Down uses ladders and Down crouches. A jumps, B throws the current weapon horizontally, and START pauses. Time your position and jumps around the enemy’s height instead of expecting free-direction aiming.
Ghosts 'n Goblins — About this game
The first graveyard introduces the game’s rhythm: enemies keep arriving, so clearing a little space and moving on matters more than firing forever from one spot. Arthur shoots horizontally, making position and jump timing essential. Crouching and ladders help with different threats, but losing armour leaves little room for another mistake. Record the password after each completed stage to return to the journey later.
