Absolutely awful game that highlights "Nintendo hard" but smeared with shit all over it. Get ready for unfair traps, instant deaths while trying to explore that are completely unavoidable and no continues. For the best experience, turn on the "Infinite Lives" cheat. At least that way you can still experience the suffering. Also, there's a cheat for disabling the noise when you take damage and if anything, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND using this. It is the most shrill, awful noise the NES can make.
