YES! This is one of my fav all time games, i used to love this on my C64 20+ years ago. Looks a bit "updated" for me, i would love a closer version to the original (maybe with an emulator).

Re: Ghosts n Goblins: Gold Knights

Not quite sure about this one, the controls are very frustrating and im not convinced with the 2D/3D look...

Re: Ghosts n Goblins: Gold Knights

It's ok but doesn't have the feel of the original. Controls are ok-ish but the gfx are a little stuttery (3GS). It's ok for the current price I guess.

Anyone else having problems with this since the last update? I get to the character select screen and then it bombs out every time back to the springboard.

Have deleted it and reinstalled it and that hasnt fixed it and I wa just looking at redownloading it through iTunes but it seems to have disappeared from the App Store

Think this might be my first refund request

Update yesterday which has fixed the crashing problem and gameplay also seems less "choppy"
