And what are the sources for this "fun fact"? Because I can't find anything confirming that the word unicorn was used this way. And the horse-like unicorn myth is over a thousand years old referenced in biblical texts. You use rhinos as an example, but Europeans had little to no knowledge of African/indian rhinos in the middle-ages. Reports of African rhinos didn't spread through Europe until the 17th century. Where people falsely identified the animal to be the "unicorn" described in the ancient myths due to its vague similarities, and some still argue that ancient rhinos breeds might have had some influence on the myths origin. But we are still talking about the mythical creature "unicorn", and not some generalized category.

It's pretty common in arcade shmups. I think it's because they didn't have enough space to store more stages so they just repeat the stages and make them harder

@@eifary9887 Being a true gamer has nothing to do with age. What you said is called being arrogant and confused. Also you can be a gamer and not give a single crap about any game Blizzard ever published, just saying.

Damn, the Nerd is totally right. This game is absolutely Mega Man mixed with Castlevania.

In design, yes. In terms of difficulty, not really. I find ghosts and goblins harder than castlevania 1. Castlevania doesn't get insanely difficult until the 2nd half. Ghosts is goblins is hard as crap starting at level 1. Also castlevania has a health bar. With ghosts and goblins you get 2 hits and you die.

If anyone is wondering, if you don't get the shield, you can't fight the final boss, when you beat both Satans, you get a screen that says "THIS WEAPON HAS NOT EFFECT... TRY AGAIN !! GET A (shield)" and sends you back to level 5
