The english wording is taken from the classic NES description, the gramma maybe better
Sure it may be better... The game pac instructions title is "GHOST'N GOBLINS"  :-\
Do you want the official french text translation form it?

EDIT : The official french text is awful...  :-X

Spoiler: ShowHide
Notre belle Princesse a été enlevée. Son amoureux, le Chevalier, revétu de son étincelante armure, est armé de cinq armes différentes. Le Chevalier doit franchir sept portes gardées, à chaque fois, par un démon maléfique. Quand le Chevalier tue l'un des méchants démons ennemis, une clé descend du ciel. Cette clé ouvre la porte suivante.

A la septième et dernière porte, votre habileté permet au Chevalier  d'engager un combat singulier contre le Diable. Battez le Diable et la belle Princesse sera sauvée.

Chaqe fois que le Chevalier est atteint par le tir ennemi, il perd son armure. Un deuxième coup tue le Chevalier. Pendant chaque étape, on peut voir des jarres qui cachent cinq armes différentes pour le Chevalier.

;) Congratulations!!!! A great work, was impossible think a work how this.But i have a AMSTRAD CPC 464 PLUS, and i can't play on real hardware.If buy a GX4000 i can play it?P.S. my dream? See a conversion on old CPC, on C64 there is a fantastic remastered version, hope of see in the next future.On CPC for me can be possible a good conversion.


A 464+ can play any cart game for the GX4000. A modern remake for the old school CPC would be interesting, but I suspect it'd need to go a least 128K to get a good version (and even then isn't ever go to be as fluid as the GX version)

Here is my take on the greek translation, cheers!

Η πανέμορφη πριγκίπισσα ¨Prin-Prin¨ απήχθη από τις δυνάμεις του σκότους. Ο αγαπημένος της ιππότης με την αστραφτερή πανοπλία του, θα τρέξει να την απελευθερώσει. Με τη δική σου βοήθεια θα πρέπει να περάσει από 7 φρουρούμενες πύλες, πολεμώντας και κατατροπώνοντας δαίμονες, δράκους, γίγαντες και ζόμπι, ώστε να βρεθεί αντιμέτωπος με τον βασιλιά των δαιμόνων, ονόματι...¨Astaroth¨.

Kudos for this one! Much better. Maybe the word "ονόματι" is a little exaggerated, as you can write simply "με τον βασιλιά των δαιμόνων... Astaroth"

Just out of curiosity, is the "kidknapped" spelling error present in the original? If not, that should probably be fixed if possible. It should be "kidnapped."

Thanks! Good suggestion!  ;D

Ok, made some FINAL FINAL adjustments. I#m happy with this now. Editing constantly won't please everyone. Thanks for all the feedback though. I also need translations for other projects.

In French, shouldn't it be "qui vous séparent" instead of "qui vous sépare" ? Should be plural, many things are separating you from your princess!! Can any French guy confirm??

Yep, "ce sont les gardiens qui séparent" then the right text is

..gardiens des sept portes qui vous séparent..

The image size is 256kB (so 2Mb) how to make it work on a physical cartridge? There is a CPR file, I've tried CPRtools to convert it to BIN, but it doesn't seem to work. Should I set the option in CPRtools to truncate the file to 128kB?

Hello and welcome to cpcwiki.

What is the reason to truncate a 256K game to fit 128K ? :-\
If you are using an 1Mbit EPROM, it will not works for that reason.

The ROM size on a Plus/GX4000 can be up to 512KB. You just need an EPROM which can store 256KB to burn it.

... so I assumed some padding in the CPR file.

Nevertheless, I was using a 2 Mbit Flash and burned an untruncated 256 kB bin file obtained from the CPR file using CPR Tools. Maybe the problem was I used 39SF020 Flash instead of 27C020 / 27C2002 EPROM, but the pinout is compatible.

The PCB LK are properly set to address the 256K ROM?

I'm using a cartridge PCB from this topic:

There are no jumpers/solder links to be set.
