The PAL version of Rygar was WAY the hell hard! The last boss (Ligar) takes ~33 hits to take out, even WITH Attack & Assail done TWICE!
To do A&A twice, you charge it up while another '3 pack' of stars are on screen so that you refill it fast, then run to the boss entrance without getting hit.
There's a PAL run on Speed Demos Archive (recorded on VHS on original console) that shows it being done right.
I could never get it done even after trying a TON of times, the 'Tone' (offense) limit is bad
You guys are making me want to play the PAL version. I've beaten Rygar on the NES over 30 times in my life time it used to be my addiction as a kid. Fun game. Wish a fan would remake it. I even bought the PS2 version when it first came out.
PAL version Ligar is hard indeed, but with Full Health, a "Coat of Arms" and 2x "Attack & Assail" it's very possible. I've done it a couple of times on my NES, but it will never be easy ;).
The best way is to build up your energy units. To do that, kill enemies who are difficult but give you many hit points.
One place (I remember) is this floating island with robots who fall from the sky and fire beams at you. Avoid their fire and keep killing them until you max your energy out (about 12-16 units).
And when you're maxed, your diskarmor will do MUCH more damage.
Ah, that could be the discrepancy. I've only played the US version. If you max out your tone and use Attack & Assail you can get him to near-death without even getting close to him. You have a nice day yourself.
Cool, creepy theme. It reminds me of those nasty, oversized snails. This game had great music for an 8-bit game. Could you also upload the rest of the game's tracks?
So does this mean I should make a Lets play for the PAL version of Rygar?
I own face at Rygar (NTSC).

Tone is limited to 25% of the USA maximum value, so you have a very hard time trying to last against the last boss for that long...>_<

The last boss is next to impossible on the PAL version since you can only get 8 heart containers!

If you max out your "tone" it becomes one of the easiest boss fights ever.
