Knightmare

Description:

Based on the sensational Konami MSX game.

Face untold horrors straight from Greek mythology in this vertical shoot-em-up for your ColecoVision!
Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, is trapped in the Nightmare Castle of the King of the Underworld.

Brave warrior Popolon vows to rescue her, and so begins an epic journey to Mount Atos, beyond which the Nightmare Castle is located.

Guide Popolon as he marches onward, as countless demons of all shapes and sizes try to stop him from reaching his beloved Aphrodite.

Collect crystals that affect your stats or grant you new weapons.
Pick up magic icons that produce various bonus effects.

9 action-packed levels.

And special for the ColecoVision version:

Opcode Games added a new "easy mode", because the original MSX game is insanely hard.

****The 1st Knightmare 2015 edition will keep track of already visited stages as long your ColecoVision is on.
