- TRIVIA -

Here is a list of features found in these new revisions: * A weaver effect of character sprites at the beginning of characters selection screen. * A different sound effect is used when a character gains a level-up, enters a stage or rises again. * More difficult (more enemies). * Enemies appearance is very different from the early 'World revision' of the game (July 1991). * Cleric is less powerful than in the early 'World revision'. It starts with 40 Health Point instead of 48. * The first extra live is at 200k points instead of 100k. * Time runs faster when the 'GO cursor' is flashing. * Count down of time starts from 30 seconds when a life is lost. This happens every time a character is killed by enemies while remaining time is less than 30 seconds. * Fruit restores only 12 Health Point (banana 10 Health Point, big red apple 24) instead of 16 in the early 'World revision'. * A dead Boss restores only 12 Health Point instead of 16 in the early 'World revision'. * Magic attacks and magic crystals destroy directly enemies flying objects (so you get more experience points). These are wolves archers arrows, skeletons lances and knights archers arrows. * Mimic Chests release a pool of acid after breaking them. * New enemies like green lizard spearmen and dark red lizard swordsmen. * Player doesn't gain the extra strawberry after the killing of the Orc King (the Boss of the first stage). * The gait of the Wyvern (the Boss of the third and of the fourteenth stage) is different; it has also only triple fireball/iceball attacks. * Back attacks of the Hydra (the Boss of the fourth stage) are more powerful. * Additional green apple no more available on the five stage. * Frontal punch attack of the Cyclops (the Boss of the sixth and fifteenth stage) is faster than in the early 'World revision'. * New different background music in the last duel with evil red dragon Gildiss. * A new Gildiss attack : an animated breath of flame after he changes the direction he's facing during the battle. * Added a new credit sequence with Gildiss and beauty fairy.
