Ghosts 'n Goblins Fun Facts

The Ghosts 'n Goblins series is known for its extreme difficulty, but an often-overlooked fun fact is that in the original arcade version, players must beat the game twice in a row on a single playthrough to see the true ending, as the first completion is deemed just a trap devised by Satan.
In the original Ghosts 'n Goblins game, if the player stands still for too long, a small demon called the Satan's Hand will spawn and attempt to kill the player, encouraging constant movement throughout the game.

Easy Delivery Co.

Easy Delivery Co. is such a wonderful gem of a game. If you have a retro driving itch, this is a great pick. I was looking for an atmospheric driving game, and this satisfied that itch perfectly. While the graphics are PS1 era, the snow brought me back to the Donkey Kong Country snow/blizzard level - and it was just perfect. Highly recommend checking this one out.
