One of the best games ever made for ANY system. Awesom music, sound, graphics, animation, effex, etc, etc. Its a pity that youtube's 30 frames/sec cannot capture the 60 frames/sec animations of SOTB. It's very apparent when the player gets "touched" and dissapears, when he's just blinking at 60 frames/sec. Oh well...

If they made this game harder, the universe would have imploded.

You had to be so precise in your timing and remember where each monster was gonna come from it was a real labour of love to complete.

Very nice graphics and sound, but like a lot of computer games of the day, ridiculously diffucult and frustrating with a crappy ending.

This game broke me as a child.

Shadow of the Beast: Wherein any problem can be solved if you punch it enough times.

OMG THAT GIANT WITH THE TOE IS THE LAST BOSS!?

That's the furthest I ever got! The feeling that I'm feeling right now must be what it's like to have a nerd rage. OH MY GOD.

And lo! the Beast Lord received a stubbed toe of such terrible magnitude that he had no choice but to cancel his plans for world domination, at least until it got a bit better.

I wish I could punch a ghost in the face

how did those top 2 comments from the same person get so many thumbs up? wheres the logic? does this person have 40 computers and thumb themself up like corporations are starting to do on video's her on youtube that have millions of views in order to advertise? wheres the logic and why?

I am suddenly glad I never bothered completing this. The final boss involves a slow moving giant trying to squish you with a club while you attempt to give him an ingrowing toenail.

Just how did that defeat him!?

[DGneoseeker1]

I just noticed something really weird.

The sound effect of that gun. It's just like a pulse rifle or Smartgun from Aliens!
