It seems that the fashion of recovering games of a lifetime for our mobile phones has only just begun. If at the beginning of the year we knew about the release of the entire original Mega Man saga, now it is the turn of another classic. This is Ghost'n Goblins, that arcade where our goal is the living dead, and which is now available on Android and iOS.
Without touching a comma
Capcom, the developer of Ghost'n Goblins, knew well what kind of audience it was addressing: the nostalgic.For this reason, and as they did with Mega Man, they have decided to offer the game as it was in 1985 The 8-bit graphics and 4:3 format screen They'll take us back to the arcade. The music also stays the same as well as the FX. And of course, the usual monsters are not lacking: skeletons, zombies, trolls and demons.
The gameplay suffers
However, one of the parts where they have not managed to maintain the spirit of the classic game is in the controls. Instead of opting for a joystick emulator, Movement controls are spread all over the left side This makes actions like jumping and crouching less accessible. hand, and the player cannot concentrate on the game screen.
The jump and attack button are also arranged in excessively large buttons, with a description that was not necessary either. Also, they eat up part of the screen.
Despite everything, the gaming experience will not disappoint fans. Capcom has decided to opt for a very reasonable price for this Ghost'n Goblins: you can buy it for 1 euro. Cheaper than Megaman, which cost twice as much.
Mobile is the perfect vehicle to bring back these types of classic games, so we look forward to more releases like this in the future.
