It was a dark and story night. On top of the hill, the ominous Dark Castle sat, awaiting its next challenger. You, the intrepid young adventurer, took a deep breath and then walked inside.... Ported from the Commodore 64 original (and it shows!).

The graphics are so 8-bit bad as to be pathetic, the classical score is rendered rather lamely given the Genesis hardware, gameplay is obstinately awkward, and the story speaks for itself. The occasional touch of black humor is not enough to save it. Bury this in the cold, hard ground - and leave it there.
