Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts

"Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts​ (超魔界村, Chō Makaimura, literally "Super Demon World Village", stylized as Chohmakaimura on the Japanese packaging) is a side-scrolling platform game produced by Capcom originally released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1991. It is the third game in the Ghosts 'n Goblins series. The game was included in the video game compilation Capcom Generations: Chronicles of Arthur for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn, as well as in Capcom Classics Collection for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox and Capcom Classics Collection: Reloaded for the PlayStation Portable. A remake of the game was released for the Game Boy Advance which features an additional game mode with new stages. The original SNES version was released for the Wii Virtual Console.

The player takes the role of the knight Arthur, who must once again rescue the Princess from the demons. The antagonist this time is the Emperor Sardius (known as Samael in the Japanese version), who has kidnapped the Princess in order to obtain the whereabouts of the Goddess' Bracelet, the only weapon capable of destroying Sardius. The game is a traditional 2D side-scrolling platformer, as with the first two arcade installments, in which Arthur must run, jump, and shoot his way through huge swarms of enemies and traps, before rescuing the princess."
