Game Description

Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts rises again on the Game Boy Advance, bringing Capcom’s legendary action-platformer to handheld form. Originally released on the Super Nintendo in 1991, this brutally challenging adventure follows the brave knight Arthur as he battles demons, monsters, and undead horrors to rescue Princess Prin-Prin from the clutches of the evil Emperor Sardius. With its gothic setting, punishing difficulty, and unforgettable enemy designs, it’s a true showcase of Capcom’s mastery of the 16-bit era.

The GBA version preserves the heart of the SNES original while adding exclusive content to extend replay value. Players face treacherous stages filled with collapsing platforms, relentless enemy swarms, and bosses that test both reflexes and memory. Arthur’s iconic armor system — where one hit strips him down to his underwear — remains intact, demanding precision and patience. New to the handheld edition is an Arrange Mode, which incorporates levels and elements from both the NES Ghosts 'N Goblins and the arcade Ghouls 'N Ghosts, making this the most complete portable version of the franchise ever released.

For collectors, Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts on GBA is more than just a re-release — it’s a definitive portable edition of one of the hardest and most respected action games of all time. Its combination of historical importance, exclusive features, and enduring reputation for difficulty make it an essential piece for both Capcom fans and serious retro game collectors.

Gameplay Features

  • Classic Capcom action-platformer faithfully adapted from the SNES original
  • Play as Arthur and battle through cursed forests, fiery caverns, and haunted graveyards
  • Master Arthur’s unique armor and weapon system, including lances, daggers, and magic
  • New Arrange Mode adds stages and content from earlier entries in the series
  • Infamously tough difficulty, demanding careful timing and quick reflexes
  • A definitive handheld version of one of gaming’s most iconic challenges

Historical Trivia or Fun Fact

First launched in 1991 on the Super Nintendo, Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts was praised for its graphics, atmosphere, and challenge. The GBA port in 2002 not only preserved the original adventure but expanded it with Arrange Mode, making it a unique release in the series and a fan favorite among handheld collectors.

The Ghosts 'N Goblins franchise is legendary for its difficulty, and Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts continues that tradition. Alongside classics like Castlevania and Contra, it is often cited as one of the toughest and most rewarding action games of all time — a badge of honor for retro fans who can conquer it.
