This week we're doing something different, and looking in-depth at the game that inspired Hidetaka Miyazaki, the creator of Dark Souls, to get into making games. A young boy is exiled for growing horns, and he must escape from a huge abandoned castle while rescuing a strange princess from a surely miserable fate. It's a simple game that has a lot of problems, but its atmosphere and obscurity are master-class, and you can see the direct lines between this and Miyazaki's FromSoft games.
