Be warned … this game is EXTREMELY fun, but EXTREMELY challenging at the same time, so be prepared for lots of do overs while playing.

This may be quite a challenge but it will keep you constantly coming back for more due to the fun factor as well as the extended replay value that’s present even with only 8 levels to progress through due to the strategy needed to be successful, be prepared to die quite frequently.

I kid you not...this game is the most difficult game ever made. But what's interesting is that as frustrating as it is, the game is still fun to play.

After finishing the game, I just felt fooled by it, because you have to REPLAY IT ALL forever until you find a secret key or whatever the f*ck to unlock the ending. No, not to unlock the "true" or "secret" ending, but just to unlock the ONLY ENDING. And good luck playing the game TWO TIMES IN A ROW without getting hit more than once, because hoo boy, if you get hit two times in the entire game, you're dead! It's not fun, it's not challenging, it's just boring, stupid and impossible.

Not only has the famous slow-down been neatly trimmed back from the SNES, the GBA game features an arranged mode which boasts level selection and all-new levels, some based on the original and arcade games. [Aug 2002, p.75]

The difficulty is a bit high if you've never played a Ghosts game before, but the new save feature should help alleviate this problem. I'd say that so far this is far and away the BEST SNES port to reach the GBA yet.

Unlike most ultra-hard games, however, Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts is thoroughly addictive, despite the fact that it does get frustrating.

Doesn’t stray from the original. Here is classic 16-bit action at its best, but it’s nothing new to scream about.

A good, well-crafted action game, but it definitely shows its age. It’s also quite possibly the hardest SNES game ever made, which, by the way, makes it too hard.

Feels a bit stale. [Nov 2002, p.68]
