"Has there ever been a medieval zombies movie?" Army of Darkness, even though Deadites are technically demons, it's close enuff. It has fighty skellingtons
Believe it or not we didn't even come up with that until right when we about to walk up on stage. Half the couch didn't even know it was going to happen. Glad it went well
I got this game for Christmas from my next door neighbors. I guess it was 1989. They were elderly and I can only assume some sales person at Toys R Us unloaded this game on them to get it off the shelves. I never finished the game.
There is actually xp in this game (blue bar). As I kill enemies the xp goes up and increase my max health (yellow bar). I can also get armor upgrades that double my health as well.

"Has there ever been a medieval zombies movie?"
Army of Darkness, even though Deadites are technically demons, it's close enuff. It has fighty skellingtons
We can count Jason and the Argonauts too then
Game of thrones
Larry Davis Not a movie, not truly zombies but it’s the closest I’ve seen to medieval zombos
“Is he wearing overalls?” No, he’s wearing ogrealls
That's pretty good. The best I came up with was olive-alls, but yours is better.
Gotta add this one to my terrible joke collection for this game :)
The helmet bit was hilarious haha

That mirror effect was actually a really clever utilization of NES graphics. If only it had been in a better game.
Great job, basically have to pitch a perfect game and ya did it. Congrats Apollo!
Thanks so much! Was definitely scary to run live but we made it through
this game truly is castle of dragon
This took me days,weeks,months to remember and find Hahahahahaha i can finally settle the score from my childhood
This might be the best game run at this agdq
Ickybobclay knows what the main event of GDQ was right here
What do dragons eat?
INPUTS.
Legit flickering lights/seizure warning on this.
That cockatrice looked good for the game no lie.
Huge Mythical Creature you mean ;)

“Has there been any medieval zombie movies?” Does Army of Darkness Count? Jason and the Argonauts?
Love the cocatrice boss, it really looked cool
That final boss music. What a banger.
The music in this game really is pretty awesome
Wow just remembered I have this game in my collection and also recalled why I never play it. Its garbage.
Haha, same. It makes sense now why we never got past the first level.
Yeah. I never made it past the forest. It was either the pit or the mini-boss who got me.
Entertaining run
Its a game I really enjoy, even as bad as it is. Glad to have people check it out
Glad this game is getting love.
Okay so can I have an explanation of *anything I just saw?*
When you get an explanation let me know too before I run this again haha!
The opening song for this game is a bit similar to Storm Eagles BGM from MMX.
"Castle of Dragon"
One dragon. Only one.
This game looks a lot like Sword Master. Is this somehow related to that game?
It actually is. Its made by the same company. Sword Master was more or less another attempt at making the game, could call it a sequel.
Can anyone explain to me what the hell happens with his health?
There is actually xp in this game (blue bar). As I kill enemies the xp goes up and increase my max health (yellow bar). I can also get armor upgrades that double my health as well.
not gonna lie, I'm really impressed that the NES could run this game at all
is there any free DLC included with this game?
The bats are just zubat
Is castle of dragons, its means the castle is made of dragons
Wait, 1990? This shit came out the same year as *Castle of Illusion* and *Super Mario World*?
Seems eerily similiar to Sword Master on the NES, just much worse
Same dev team made Sword Master shortly after this (I think they are a year apart) and yeah. Sword Master is much better.
AwfulblockisBESTblock!
This game is so terrible that it's cool
This game looks a lot like Sword Master, only worse.
At least the music is kinda fire?
